Indie Coffee Shop #10 : Red Rocket - Wellesley
Neighbourhood:
Drink Ordered: Hot Blondie Caramel Mocha
This is was delicious. Amazing. I really treated myself with this one with all the whipped cream on top. But, you can't get this drink and not get whipped cream! I didn't want this drink to end. It was that good! It wasn't overly sweet like some Starbucks type drinks. It was perfect :) Totally recommend this one!
Size: This place doesn't have that much space. The seating area is quite minimal, but this place isn't designed to be one of those "sit for hours" coffee shops. However, if you'd like to sit down, there are some seats to the side where you can enjoy your morning paper :)
Menu: Regular favs. If I'm not mistaken the create custom coffee blends which I hear are tasty! I totally recommend ordering the Hot Blondie though, it was that good!
Atmosphere: Great staff. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in because the baristas were so welcoming. I was even asked what music I'd like to listen to! That was really sweet of the barista to do! This place is laid back, and a great place to visit on a sunny morning like I did.
Overall, the Red Rocket got an A+ in customer service, and an A+ in yummy drinks, (at least the Hot Blondie deserves an A+). The only sad thing is that there isn't much space for people to chill out in. However, my guess is that it's designed to be more of a "buy and go" type coffee shop, and I'm alright with that. Great use of space, great staff, great drinks, what more could I ask for?
Date Potencial: 7/10. I probably wouldn't bring a date here. However, if you're looking for a place to grab your fella or gal a drink to go along with the breakfast you cooked up for them, then grab a drink here!
Great For: professionals on the go, locals needing their morning caffeine fix, the lonely wanderer
Red Rocket - Wellesley gets 5/5 Smiles from Me!
