I attend the ASMS, the high school up the hill. The daily kitchen co. is an icon there. Five days a week I am at the decaf, no matter where I am I will always spot a friendly smile or wave from a staff member, I have grown quite close with the staff here and I will always be very fond of them. I will sometimes just go and buy something cheap just to have a chat with them in the morning, lunch, or afternoon. An honourable mention to the wonderful manager Madi and Candice, both of which have been so kind and gracious listening to all my troubles, and helping me so much. (Oh and their food is absolutely delicious too!!!) I highly suggest swinging past this beautiful place on your way through to your next uni lecture I promise you that you will not regret it. They all make a mean coffee!!
