Calling all little treat enjoyers!! Everyone needs a little pick-me-up in their day, and life is just that tiny bit easier when you have a little treat. We’re setting out each week for a review of some treats available in Brandon.

This week we visited One and Only Design Studio. Their whole shop is filled with gorgeous (for sale) decorative and functional design elements, such as lighting, art, furniture, etc. This really sets the vibes of the place; very cozy and relaxed. To enjoy along with this lovely, cooler, fall weather, I tried their chai latte with a little sprinkle of cinnamon on top. Truly one of the most delightful and warming drinks I’ve had in a while. The cozy atmosphere with their small, but rather inexpensive, menu makes this a great spot to sit and read, or meetup with friends.

“I’ve had O&O more than any other coffee shop in Brandon, so maybe I have a little bit of bias. I think for me though, O&O is the best in terms of quality-to-price ratio. To me, the atmosphere of a place is a huge part of the experience. You can also play piano here, so that’s a big bonus. I’m pretty sure O&O is pretty popular with some BU music alumni; I know a few people who come here fairly regularly. Their London fog is unmatched, I would recommend! That’s about it.” - Raven M., BU Piano Student

Come join a small group of fellow students on Mondays, for a little treat spot highlight! Chat, destress, grab a snack/drink and enjoy a small trip to a local sweet-treat-stop. So, if you’re free, think about it! We’ll be meeting around the Kavanagh courtyard after slot 3, leaving at 11:45. The little trip shouldn’t take more than 45-60 minutes, so you could be back on campus for a class afterwards. Maybe you’ll discover your new favourite off-campus study spot, or even a new study reward for all that hard work you’ve been putting in.
