Such a great spot for a variety of occasions! The coffee is amazing and the food is also. I really like the ambiance of this cafe - it's really beautifully decorated and the volume always seems to maintain a quiet, comfortable and cozy vibe best for studying and working on laptops. I didn't realize that the tiramisu latte actually contains tiramisu in it - pretty neat, but was so decadent!! If you have a sweet tooth you would definitely enjoy it. Took a few sips then just got a black coffee. Next time I would try the matcha they have! I would highly recommend checking this cafe out if you're in the area!

Lived by here for a year and came here once a week. Their food and drinks are always so solid. Their tiramisu latte is so good, light, and sweet. Their sandwiches are super cute and super tasty. I havent had anything here that I didnt like and the price point is not too bad as well. Their baked goods are also pretty tasty.

1/1 Ambience; 1/2 Beverage; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value Semicolon is a wonderful spot to catch up with friends, do some work, or just enjoy a solid cup of coffee. It is cozy with a warm, inviting, spacious atmosphere brightened by the myriad plants and big windows. There is plenty of seating that wasn't difficult to find even on a late weekend morning. On this occasion, I got the iced tiramisu latte, hoping for a unique experience in terms of specialty flavored coffees. It is a very aesthetically pleasing drink garnished with a dollop of ice cream, the chocolate wafer and shaved chocolate bits. It felt like a treat for the taste buds and certainly the eyes. But, flavor-wise, it was just good and actually lacked a robust coffee flavor, which was disappointing for a tiramisu-flavored drink. The chocolate wafer also became too soggy rapidly. Overall, however, this cafe is very charming and I am definitely going to return to try other menu items and their regular coffee fixtures! My two friends both got sandwiches with their coffees, and both were very satisfied with their food. The staff was friendly, and the prices look like a good value for the quality of food and drinks.

This place is great! The coffee is amazing and so is the food. This was my first time trying a sandwich, I usually go for the small pastries already available. Now it's official, everything in the store is bomb! The ambiance here is quiet because people tend to do work on their laptops but it's comfortable and cozy for a quick talk with a friend if you would like. The area is nice, the park and water line are not too far. I highly recommend coming here if you're a coffee lover. It will not disappoint. The place itself is clean, bright, minimalistic decor. Very modern and chic. Service animals welcome!

Loved this cute lil coffee shop. We ordered an iced caramel specialty latte, cold brew with hazelnut syrup, and the BELT sandwich. The drinks were sweet and tasty, but the real star of the show was the sandwich. It really had no business being that good! The toast was light and airy, the bacon perfectly crisped, the eggs fluffy and savory, and the mustard mayo was the perfect condiment to enhance the sandwich's flavor. I'm not exaggerating when I say that it was probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. If you're not feeling up for a sandwich, they also have a great selection of pastries at the front (danishes, muffins, croissants, etc). Def will be coming back again!

Today I got the Bulgogi sandwich, a strawberry ade and a banana pudding. Bulgogi sandwich: Tender juicy meat, slight sweetness from the sauce, the sauce actually tasted more like a takoyako/okonomiyaki sauce than anything. The bread was nice and fluffy yet slightly crispy good dish. Banana Pudding: The cookie was nice and soft, banana pudding was nice and very creamy, good banana flavor, slightly sweet. Very good treat. Strawberry Ade: It was not what i was expecting, i expected your typical strawberry lemonade combo. This tasted kind of like a mix between a strawberry and sprite, it was bubbly, ok strawberry flavor, it wasn't bad. Overall: Really good place to try out if you are in the area.
