High Tide Coffee

I was in the shopping center where this coffee shop is located on a weekday afternoon so decided to go in and sit, relax, and go through emails while enjoying a coffee and pastry. It was a good idea, anyway.Once inside I immediately realized that my plans were going awry. Every table, both inside and out, were occupied by laptop campers, many of which were single people at tables made for four. This seems to be all too common and, since I usually prefer to sit inside a coffee shop and enjoy my coffee, a big factor in persuading me against a return visit.The staff were nice enough. I ordered one of their specialty coffees an orange mocha and selected a chocolate croissant from their pastry case. In a couple minutes both were ready, the mocha in a paper cup and the croissant in a covered container. I guess they could see I wasn't going to find a place to sit so gave it to me as take out. With zero seating available, I noticed just outside their side door were a bunch of rock like sculptures which were apparently designed as seating. I took a seat on one even though they were all filthy and terribly uncomfortable. The orange mocha was great, sort of like having one of those chocolate oranges you find on store shelves around Christmas time. Immediately drinkable, the mocha flavor with a background of orange flavor was quite lovely. The more I drank the more prevalent the orange flavor became. Not sure if it was meant to be like that but I really liked it.When I opened the container with the chocolate croissant, they had heated it up, which normally would be appreciated, but since it was placed inside this closed container it had become a soggy, doughy, disgusting mess. The moisture caused it to no longer be a crisp, flakey croissant but a blob with a wee bit of liquified, scalding hot chocolate within it. I had a few bites and threw it out. Anyone who knows me knows that I have never ever thrown out a chocolate croissant. But this was truly a turd of a croissant, easily the worst I've ever had.My advice if you must enter the doors of this place, don't expect to find a table, just get your drink to go and avoid the pastries.

I recently went here with my baby and had the best experience! Everyone was so friendly and they even had a high chair for my son. We had such a great mom/son coffee date and would highly recommend it! Not to mention the best latte and croissants. They had the cutest little play area for little ones as well.Kid-friendliness: High chair, kids toys, friendly staff
