"Beautiful place and great for working/studying"

"My friend recommended this place to me, and I was amazed by this secret garden. The environment was so comfy. I feel I could spend the whole afternoon here drinking coffee and chatting with my friends. I ordered the iced coffee which was recommended by the Barista. She asked about my preference for coffee and suggested me a fruity flavor of iced coffee. The coffee had this citrus aroma for the aftertaste, very smooth. It was just perfect as black coffee without milk or creamer. When I order Iced coffee, I am always afraid of getting a bland taste, but not in this place. The color of the coffee was not dark but the flavor/aroma was there! UPDATE: This coffee shop is run by a non-profit organization that helps developmental disabilities to learn a living skills. I got to talk to the Barista today, and she explained to me the difference between 4 hand drip coffee. Here are my little summarized descriptions. Rwanda: Barista said this coffee has the most fruity aftertaste, but it's only when it's hot. Cold coffee kinda washes away the aroma. So try it hot! Ethiopia: This is the fruit iced coffee I tried the very first time. See above review. Guatemala: I tried this today. Barista said this one is slightly bitter yet with a good chocolate aftertaste. It was very minor of bitterness, and the way I describe the aftertaste will not be chocolate but more of the caramel (burnt sugar in Flan) My favorite so far. Colombia: Barista said this one has a stronger chocolate aftertaste. I didn't get to try this time. Let me introduce a place that moved me. The entrance is Good Stewards Church. After entering, turn to the right and you can see it. Everyone knows the Sunshine Car Wash in Taiwan! This cafe is a charity organization of the same nature. They will vocationally train some young people with intellectual and physical disabilities to become baristas. I happened to be assigned to work at Walnut before, and my colleague said he would take me to have coffee, but before we went, we went around to buy lunch nearby. I was wondering why my colleague wanted to take me to a place that didn’t sell food but allowed take-out food to drink coffee. I was curious about what was so special about it. During the car ride, my colleague told me about the background of this cafe, so I came to buy it with a caring thought. When we went to the cafe, it turned out to be a church wedding venue. During the week, the seesaw charity group rents it to open a coffee shop. It's an outdoor environment. Since it is a place where weddings are held on weekends, it is natural that it will be a very pleasant and comfortable environment. What about coffee! I didn’t have any thoughts, after all, I am a person who can also enjoy McDonald’s coffee. When I ordered coffee, the barista asked me what kind of coffee I preferred. She asked me if I preferred something bitter. Or is it fruity? I chose the fruity iced coffee without even knowing the name... She also told me that each of their coffee beans has a different flavor. I guess this should be the trainer! Very understanding! ! The coffee took a while to make because it was brewed on site. After drinking it, I realized that coffee can have natural flavors besides the fake flavors I usually drink. I came here again today and asked the barista. The following is an introduction to four types of hand-drip coffee. Rwanda: The barista said this coffee has a more pronounced fruity aroma, but it can be tasted better when served hot. If you use iced coffee, the fruity aroma will be diluted. She suggested drinking it hot. Then I will have to try it again when the temperature drops suddenly. Ethiopia: Usually coffee with ice cubes is very light, but the color of my cup is not heavy, and the coffee tastes very fragrant and full. There is actually a little bit of citrus acidity in the mouth (not the acidity of bad coffee), and after swallowing it, you will be left with a light fruity aroma in your mouth, which is very smooth. I also specially saved the last bit and added milk to drink to see if it would go well with it. The conclusion is that after adding milk, the fruity aroma is covered up, so it is not worthy. Guatemala: I drank this today. The barista's introduction is that this drink is slightly bitter in the mouth, but has a chocolate aroma aftertaste. After I personally tasted it, I felt that it was slightly bitter in the mouth, but it was not as bitter as Zhengrowan and bitter melon. It was slightly bitter. After that, I thought it was like a caramel with a bit of caramel aftertaste. Currently my favorite. Colombia: The barista said this one has a heavier chocolate aftertaste. But because Colombian coffee is very common, I didn’t want to try it this time. Taking advantage of the heat today, I used my body to personally test whether an outdoor cafe would make people drink more and more in a high temperature close to 100 degrees. In conclusion, although it is outdoors, because their shed is really big enough, it is very cool without relying on calmness and natural cooling. Sitting on the sofa today, not a layer of dust flew up when I sat on it, so there is no problem in terms of cleanliness and hygiene, and it is also very comfortable. I would like to recommend this place to everyone, and I won’t be ridiculous. Not all places that offer love services require you to blindfold yourself and spend money to do so! The price is also affordable, and the environment is actually very nice, making it perfect for a group of friends to spend an afternoon chatting there. There are also sofas to sit on. However, in addition to the drinks you can buy, you may have to bring your own pastries."

"This coffee station is inside a Korean church. The environment is very quiet and comfortable. I spent a wonderful Saturday morning drinking and chatting with my sisters. We ordered a total of 12 cups for takeout today. The boss later provided a recommendation that he highly recommended. The Ugandan coffee was given to us to try. It was very kind~~~ I will go there when I have time in the future~~"

"I tried their peach oolong tea and loved it! They have plenty of outdoor seatings (tables, benches, and booths) and what I also liked about this cafe is that I can bring my own food. You just need to purchase their drinks. As long as you get there between 10 am and 2 pm (Tue-Sat), you can grab a drink and use their cafe area!"
