My wife ordered a cold brew through the drive thru with no ice bc she doesn't want watered down coffee. They charge almost $3 for no ice and then the quality of the drink was not what we are accustomed to for PJs. We had paid with a gift card and they offered us a refund so we accepted. When we checked our gift card later it was empty, even though they handed it back to us and made us believe they had given us a refund. It was $11 for one drink which is crazy.

A great place to go! The staff is so helpful and friendly. You can sit with a friend and chat for a while without worries. Or bring your laptop and sit at one of the tables while you study or work. The menu is great and the music is not intrusive. Go alone, with family or friends. You won't be disappointed.
