      Wonderful little establishment. The food is average aside from the baked goods which are hand-made, but the coffee and lattes remain as standouts.

      Note in advance that the restaurant has very limited seating: only a small table in the corner of the lobby but the service is quick so you won't be standing for long. There is also many cute little nicknacks dotted about, which are nice to look at and depending on your tastes would be nicer at your own home.

      Owner seems nice enough. It is a bit strange to walk in and have someone giving massages in the middle of the store. Definitely get beans and go as the prepped coffee is weak.
      Lots of good gift to chose from though. I can't rate the food as we did not have it.

      What a wonderful local coffee spot. I stop in whenever I am in town visiting my parents and always enjoy it very much. The lovely woman who owns the shop even when so far as to suggest I combine a couple of my favorite flavors of syrups and try something new. It was a homerun! You don't find that kind of personalized service at Starbucks! There are a few tables if you like your coffee outdoors and the inside is warm and cozy. Great breakfast sandwiches too! I highly recommend.

      I came in here for the first time today and really enjoyed my visit! The owner is very friendly and helps you find what you would like. I got a butter pecan coffee and a breakfast sandwich on an Asiago bagel. So good and put sbux to shame!!

      Best breakfast sandwich ever! My husband agrees. Friendly and cozy place. I drink decaf and purchased beans to grind. Delicious!

      The coffee here is delicious but what I really come in here for is the amazing breakfast sandwiches. My personal favorite is sausage egg and croissant with cheddar cheese. Yummm

      Great find. I deviated from my Starbucks routine as I just wanted somewhere close, and found this place. How have I lived so close for a year and never noticed it?
      I went in today and it smelled wonderful! The owner Christina was friendly and knowledgeable beyond compare to a coffee house I've been to before. I mentioned I was an iced coffee girl and she just started walking me through options. I ended up with an iced salted caramel turtle with oat milk and it was amazing! Christina shared that if I call ahead she will run my drink out to me too!
      I tried one of her customizable breakfast sandwiches and that was so good and what a great price at $3.75!
      I will definitely be back!!!!!

      Perk It Up is the best coffee shop in the South County area. The flavor options far exceed Dunkin and even Starbucks. Whether you're getting hot or iced, the quality is without a doubt better than both of them as well.

      Instead of waiting in long lines and getting incorrectly made orders at those places, try Perk It Up. You won't regret it!
