If you haven’t tried Onward yet, what are you doing?? The space is bright and open with plenty of tables, little arched booths when you want privacy, and a gorgeous outdoor spot for sunny days. I got the Cinnamon Toast Matcha Latte and it was SO good — and their seasonal menu is honestly fire every time they change it. Tucked away in Research Park next to Viet Crispwich, with tons of parking. Perfect escape from University Drive traffic. Heads up: food stops at 1pm, but pastries go ’til close.
