Beautiful coffee shop with yummy middle eastern pastries. The Rose lemonade is delicious. 8 tables inside with some outlet so you can work with your laptop while listening to Middle eastern music.

This place is under new ownership and worth a look for any neighbors looking to add a new coffee stop to their list. The new ambiance of the place is beautiful and warm. Offerings are Syrian style, with baklava & other Arab sweets, rose flavors for the coffee, middle eastern flatbreads (manoushe/manakeesh <-- writing that just so this place shows up for those of us who search for it by name on the regular) and hummus etc.
This shop is where the Jumpin' Java used to be. My partner got the pour-over and I was fussier, with a rose coffee decaf and oat milk. Both were delicious! There's baba ghanoush and hummus in the fridge with little cut pita and veggies--great if you need protein and you are in a hurry. We didn't try the zatar (za'atar or zaatra) bread with various toppings but we are looking forward to it the next time we go. We also got these baklavas in different shapes (cigar/finger, birds nest) and they were heavenly!
The cafe is very frilly and floral to suit the business name, clean and inviting. Some of the metal sculptures from Jumpin' Java remain. Service was quick and the person at the register patiently explained the menu items to us. I hope they do well here!
