Awesome matcha and coffee in a great atmosphere. Love the mango sticky rice matcha latte special and the back patio!

Expectation vs reality. Sure the place looks cute but my growling stomach cannot be appeased on whimsy alone. First and last time going, and was purely motivated by their pic online of that sandwich. What I got was one slice of roast beef and one slice of cheese and lots of greens. Coffee is fine. There are better options in the Heights for food, drink, and ambiance.

Truly such a wonderful experience! We got the blueberry pancake matcha with a shot of espresso, and it is one of the best matchas I have had in a very long time. Georgia, the owner, is such a sweetheart, including the rest of the staff! The food was also incredible, but the blueberry matcha with the espresso was my highlight!

matcha was so disappointing unfortunately. it’s truly such a cute cafe and i had much higher hopes for the matcha but it had no flavor, was super dull in color, and tasted chalky. I would’ve loved to see them use a higher quality ceremonial grade matcha at this price point that is stored and utilized correctly and I’m sure it would help this place flourish!! their homemade syrups are delicious which are much appreciated but probably better enjoyed in coffee here.

Absolutely loved lil dove! The place is pretty small - there are maybe 5-6 tables pretty close together but it’s a vibe inside and they’ve got a nice curated collection of gifts to buy. Overall - coffee was solid and we loved their breakfast sandwiches. Will be back!
