The Triple B cookie

The Triple B cookie

It's a buttery, thick cookie with bananas, cheesecake and blueberries on top. If you like pistachio, get the Pistachio Crush too. It has pistachio paste on top and a pistachio layer inside.

Patio and walk-up window

Sit out on the patio or order from the outside window, and bring the dog. On Sundays you can park right in front of the patio.

I had such a great experience here. This place became my go to for pretty much everything, coffee, pastries, breakfast, lunch… The coffee is genuinely delicious, rich and smooth. The avocado toast is amazing, really fresh and full of flavor. What I loved is that everything is made on the spot by the guy there, no premade stuff, no shortcuts, just real food made right there. The sandwiches are top-notch, and the cookies, sweets, and croissants taste homemade and fantastic. You can really taste…

They make a KILLER croissant here. The bread on the inside is like PERFECT. And the outer flaky crust has a very feint sweet honey glaze. Not so much where it feels like a dessert, but the perfect amount where it just enhances the flavor just a little bit more. Also I’m not sure what their secret is, but the iced latte (with oat milk) is like…perfect. Not too sweet, not too bitter. It’s everything I want in a coffee drink. I live nearby and this has become my regular go-to spot.

I found this place through instagram and saw their amazing looking cookies. By the time I got there though, most of them were sold out. The owner was really nice and recommended the Triple B that was left. It was pretty good. Buttery, thick cookie, with a layer of bananas, rich creamy cheesecake, and blueberries. He also threw in a charlotte pie which reminded me of cornbread because it was slightly crumbly, buttery yet fluffy, and not too sweet. I hope next time I go back they’ll have more…

Kar Sweet is an absolute gem! I tried the pistachio latte, and it was the best one I've ever had. The coffee was strong, but the flavor struck the perfect balance—not too sweet or overwhelming. It was perfection in a cup! The owner was incredibly kind and helpful. The food menu looks amazing too. I can’t wait to come back and try more. Definitely worth checking this place out!

Had a really nice experience at Karsweet Coffee. Tried the Chicken Melt and honestly enjoyed it a lot, fresh, warm, and really flavorful. Also had their baklava, which was absolutely delicious, fresh and not overly sweet like many places make it. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the service was great too. Definitely a spot worth stopping by if you’re in the area. Will be coming back to try more from the menu!
