Good Earth Coffeehouse

Wow such great service!
One of the best vanilla lattes i've ever had!
The Boy making my coffee was very nice and cheerful.
Will be here again.

It is a nice space, and the coffee and food are fine, but not my first choice in the neighbourhood due to their policy of putting coffee in disposable cups unless you ask for a mug. Also not the friendliest people behind the counter. I prefer Discovery Coffee across the street for quality of coffee, sustainability (default is to offer a mug), and friendliness. I only come here when Discovery is full and/or I want some more wholesome food than the small selection of baked goods on offer at Discovery.

This is a great little coffee shop, that also serves light snacks (soups and sammies), along with beer, wine, and other beverages. The decor is tasteful, live music on Wednesdays, and helpful staff. Don't be put off by the negative reviews you may see here from selfish students. When we went tonight, several students were sitting alone at tables for 4 or 6, nicely spread out with all their books and laptops, where they sat for 3+ hours, ordering one coffee... They could easily have at a smaller table, to show consideration for others. I can hardly blame the owner for asking people to move, so paying customers can enjoy sitting together for a nice coffee. I too would be frustrated if students occupied 70% of my sitting area, using my cafe as their personal office/bedroom for hours at a time. In fact, many cafes have started "laptop-free" zones or times to help make cafes enjoyable for everyone, not just students. Don't blame the hard working owner for trying to make his business available and inviting to a wider range of customers.
