Breakfast burritos, pastries and coffee. Great place to stop through.

Edit. We had a really bad experience here that made me change my review and stop coming here. My wife ordered a coffee and sat down while it was being made. No one else ordered, and a few minutes later a coffee was sitting on the counter. She went up to ask if it was her's, but the barista and (we found out later) the owner were talking so didn't acknowledge her. She assumed it was hers since they didn't say anything so she grabbed it. About 30 seconds later, the owner stormed over to us and yelled "did you take that coffee?". I said yes and he said "that was mine". I said we didn't realize it was the wrong one and he said "fine, just keep it" and stormed back to the counter. We brought it back up and told him that she couldn't drink it anyway because my wife can't have milk.
It was embarrassing for us because everyone in the shop was watching as he accused us of stealing his coffee. After we sent an email explaining what happened to management. We received a reply from the owner who just gave us a coupon. Since the issue was with the owner, it would have been nice to at least sent an apology.
We haven't been back since. There are so many incredible small businesses in Tacoma who deserve support, and this one is no longer on that list for us.
Here was my review before this incident: "My wife and I like coming here to share a coffee and some pastries. Very friendly staff and comfortable atmosphere."
