I kept riding past this place after it opened, and it looked so welcoming. I finally had the time to stop in, and although I cant get here as much as Id like, I am constantly wishing for a little break to get away and come drink the delicious coffee and soak up the wonderful atmosphere. I constantly google "coffee shops/study environment," and this is easily in my top 3. Yep, Im hooked. The people on the other side of the counter are friendly, personable, and authentic. As a matter of fact that was the very first thing I noticed on my first visit... I felt truly welcomed and comfortable. There is also parking for bicycles and motorcycles right in front of the place, and Ive had my saddle bags broken into in a parking lot, so it gives me peace of mind leaving my bike out there and not worrying about somebody stealing my stuff. (Not that it cant happen, but some things we just cant control.) Anyway, thats a BIG deal. Id like to spread the word... motorcycle friendly!!!

Great people, good cup of coffee or tea. They just opened a few weeks ago and the place is extremely popular already. Its full every day. They just got gift cards last week, and dont have blended drinks (like Frappucino), but will do any drink iced. Ive had both an iced decaf coffee and iced tea from freshly brewed leaf tea, and both were really good. Neither was bitter as iced coffee and tea can often be if not handled with care. These folks really care about what theyre doing, and their primary goal is investing in the community (its evidently a non-profit). Ive been several times and it looks like Ill be a regular.

It was phenomenal to finally experience the love and magical care of this place. Sustainable, built with community in mind, simple, and the coffee is better than Starbucks. I should know as a recovering adrenaline addict/colombian export expert. I will be watching this space with focus and participatory vigor. Im so glad you endured to make this business a reality! @outsidetheboxhk @otbnz

This place is very welcoming, the energy is something else in this place. Daniel and Jack helped me out they were super friendly,they are very easy going and it fits the vibe of the place. I was given a little coffee 101 by Daniel and he refereed me to the Tanzania Pour over brew. Very awesome vibe cant wait until they start hosting events.

Almond coconut latte! Loved it! Went on a Saturday morning (June 10) & it was very quiet, not too many people there. I didnt explore the place much, but I knew I liked it. Its nice to have other options than your typical fast-coffee joint that sells burnt coffee. There was some cool art on the wall & bags of coffee for sale.

Totally Love Love Love the assistants awesome friendly welcoming service, atmosphere & last but not least, the coffee!! The fact that Sanctuary is an advocate for social justice, stands against human trafficking, donates food and a host of other positive things! Need I Say More... Awesome... I Love It!!!

If youre going to buy coffee, why not just buy it at a place that gives the money directly to charity! Dont give your money to corporations, buy your coffee while giving back to your own community. First time here, I think the place is great. Lots of space. Quiet. Very relaxing good energy.

Sanctuary is my new favorite coffee spot. The coffee is really good (I recommend their Ethiopian blend). They are open early for before I go into work and open late when I want to hang out in the evenings. All baristas go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and like family.

Tasty coffee with tons of options including friendly staff to provide suggestions, and large, spacious, bright seating areas (two indoor with colorful art, one outdoor). Theyre also civic minded, donating profits to charity! Whats not to love about good coffee and charity?

High quality coffee and loose leaf tea, made to order. People are super nice and the space is beautiful with artwork, couches, tables and an outdoor patio. Selection of tarts, scones, and bagels. The owner, Steve, says all profits go to local charities which make me happy!

Nice layout and good coffee. But be prepared the see a lot of Bibles and overhear earnest convos about God and the Holy Spirit with the convolutions that hardcore Xtians are fond of indugling in. If there was some music to blend into the bantar, it woulddrown out

Wow loved this place, the people are super cool and I love their message and what they are doing here, its not just coffee there is more than that going on in the is place, but Im not goin to tell you about it, you need to come find out for your self

Came here to plan a wedding with my girls and the vibes were so warm and welcoming. We took too long to grab our drinks so the barista delivered it our table and was so kind about it. The coffee, service and layout of the place is all so amazing!

My business partner and I have had 2 meetings there and its a perfect environment for our needs. The staff is friendly and helpful, the selection of teas and coffee are great, plenty of seating in a calm, inviting atmosphere. We will be back!

Luke-warm and tasted watered down. Very slow service, although the guy at the checkout was great! The guy making the drinks was distracted by conversation with a customer and it took way too long to get our drinks made.

What a charming little coffee house! The employees were very friendly and helpful. I had a cappuccino with soy and it was delicious. Bonus: they have gluten-free pastries!! Great place :)

Megan Gearhart

Wonderful spot. Coffee was fresh, not a bit bitter, full flavored. The space is large, decorated with vintage items, very welcoming. Plan on visiting a lot.

True to the core gourmet coffee place. Not your average coffee shop. Opened 4 weeks ago. Large comfy serene atmosphere. I had the creme Brule latte. Yummm.

Valerie Avalos

Its a two level cafe, wonderful drinks, extremely peaceful and quiet (great for grad students). The baristas are kind and the patio area is so lovely!

From owner, to employees, to the coffee and conversations that Ive had... Its a wonderful shop that lives up to its name of helping those in need.

Amazing people with an amazing vision. They are truly wonderful and caring. The coffee and tea are incredible.

I love the concept of this cafe! Its a quiet & relaxing location. The coffee and pastries were good too!

Jared Bjur

Excellent coffee and atmosphere. And it is a non-profit, giving all its profits to charity.
