The vibe of this cafe is fantastic, with all the funky and eclectic decor and delicious offerings. I enjoyed their drinks so much that I ended up visiting them all three days of my trip! I tried their spiced apple cider, hi res chai, and caramel apple chai which were all perfect for the crisp fall weather Definitely stop by for a cup of tea or coffee if you’re in the area :)

I stopped by ESP Tea & Coffee after a nearby massage and was glad I did. It’s a cute café with a cool, artsy vibe and kind staff. They took the time to answer my questions and help me decide what to order. I tried one of their specials—the waffle cone latte with vanilla and white chocolate (requested less sweet)—and a vegetable patty to go. The latte was mistakenly made iced, but they quickly remade it hot and even let me keep the iced one for my daughter, which I appreciated. The drink was flavorful and nicely balanced with the reduced syrup. Unfortunately, the veggie patty was a letdown—overcooked, dry, and light on filling, with hard edges. I hope that’s something they improve, because otherwise, it was a good visit. I definitely would go back and try more of what they offer.
