The food itself was good, but there is only one option for vegetarians. Unfortunately, the wifi was down, and the tables and floor were dirty.
Quality coffee and breakfasts. Perfect chill music to work from. Strong wifi. Clean bathroom. A dream come true!
Buy lots of food and drink if you work from there for hours.
This is my favorite coffee shop! They have really good food! The only drink that I didn't like so far is their matcha latte. Usually it is very quiet an a lot of people go there to work/study. Great wifi and outlets so if you need a modern place with great food I recommend this place!
Great place to sip et work.
Such a great place to grab a coffee or set up and work for the day!
Great coffee and service. The chocolate pretzels are AMAZING. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Also a great place to do work in a cafe.
Vibes. Good music. Good for meeting friends or remote work
Bower is a space I want to return to soon. The cafe is an example of how to turn a modern, corporate space and turn it into a comfy, bright and welcoming space for enjoying coffee and one another. With plenty of room to spread out, it would be easy to imagine spending a morning here and getting some work done or having a meeting with colleagues. Having said that, the coffee was not as complex or interesting as I hoped it would be. The delivery is solid and the quality is passable with little to identify as a flaw. Still, it is the kind of coffee that is safe and solid, but short of memorable or surprising. This is the kind of shop I could imagine coming back to for the space first and the coffee second.
Delicious almond croissant, drinks are also great. Nice space to work in.
Great coffee and friendly service. This is a great place to sit down and do some work or just hang out.
Awesome cold brew coffee and atmosphere. Lots of natural light make working here relaxing. They could have a few more outlets though.
