Adam's Corners Cafe
Cafe
πŸ‘πŸ‘ World, look at this beautiful little leaf. Making up a huge beautiful bowl of salad catered by Adam's. Usual catered salads have a reputation for being wan, pale, floppy and tasteless. But Adam's Cafe salads are incredibly fresh (how?! It's winter!) and the tomatoes actually taste like tomatoes, and...

Sacred Root Kava Lounge & Tea Bar
Tea house
πŸ‘πŸ‘ The drink tastes very special. To me, it mixed the environment of East and atmosphere of West vey well. There aren’t many people at night, so you can have a very great time with your friends. Just few of you can have a nice deep talk. Or a group of you can have a party in a special room.

Botanist Coffeehouse
Coffee shop
πŸ‘πŸ‘ If you want to relax and have a cup of coffee or espresso products, this is the place. Walking distance to the Ithaca falls. Within a quiet neighborhood (not in a mall), give it its local and personal print. Also, they are a floristry. They sell a variety of indoor plants.

A book reading corner, unique and local beers, ciders and wines, and Tammy's famous pickles. Community permeates this place, and is evident in the ads and local events posted. Co-owner Ashley...

Chatty Cathy Coffee and Juice Co.
Açaí shop
😐 Was hoping to love this place and it was meh. Ordered a coffee and an acai bowl. Staff was nice. No seating which was unfortunate. I realize it's because there's no room (not their fault the building is tiny) but it's not really appealing to have to eat in your car. For the high price compared to t...

😠 Buyer’s Beware!! Made me buy a $20 gift card to get a $2 drink but told me I could come back and use the gift card any time. I came back one day for food. SURPRISE! The gift card can only be used for booze. What a scam! I hate this place.
