Essential stop in our neighborhood! The only coffee shop around here, and the coffee/espresso is great. If you want to get to know the neighbors, this is THE place to do it. Very friendly atmosphere. This is also a Christian mission serving the area's poor, so they're a non-profit and an appreciated burst of positive energy in a spot that connects several up and coming neighborhoods/streets on either side of Dexter Ave.
