On the windows, in silvery etching, are the words 'Coffee', 'Tea', and 'Free Wi-Fi'. The brick facade has been whitewashed and the folding doors are painted the same blue as the sign, with silver hardware. On a signboard out front are the shop's hours.

The counter is set against one wall, the wooden top and sides matching the tables, and the main structure painted white like the washed brick walls.

In house coffees are served in cups in a matching blue to the doors and signage.

On the tables are tin buckets full of stirrers, spoons, sweeteners, and napkins. ed cabinet in which pastries and breakfast sandwiches rotate and change often.
