The front door is places at an awkward, sharp bump which, combined with a heavy door( common in cities and little to be done without a large budget, I imagine) , may be a difficult obstacle for folks in different wheelchair-using situations. I am in a manual wheelchair with strong upper body and arm usage, and I sometimes struggle with this.
A large, unanchored wire/chord cover which is supposed to allow for folks to walk and roll over safely moves too easily amd often impedes my chair's movement. It's necessary to cross if one needs to use the any-gender( love) bathroom.
The food and coffee are great. The hours are some of the latest around.
Sometimes the employees seem so miserable that you half expect the house dj to be the ghost of Ian Curtis.
I was really excited to check this place out, but was def disappointed. The food case is dirty, the tables are sticky and dirty… the whole place just looked like it was run by teenagers. It needs a good scrubbing and some furniture repair and new furniture. There was also no music playing, so the ambiance was super awkward.
Update: Also just saw this place was shut down by Baltimore City Public Health on 8/31/2026 for “No hot water, rodent infestation, insufficient refrigeration, improper handwashing, general unsanitary conditions, operating without a valid license”
Yuck.
