Inside this video

From Lets Get Lexi (Alexis Pence):

“I love the challenge. I just think you love the challenge of coffee, and he's mostly right.”
“Creating deliciousness. You know, you can do a good job, a great job, one day, and then the next day you completely screw up a batch of coffee.”

How Cherrybook Index is calculatedavg coverage 23% · limited data

Coverage is below 50%. Available roaster-level evidence comes from Reddit. Per-lot evidence from SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, and public on-shop product ratings is limited across the catalog. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherrybook Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The average Cherrybook Index therefore leans more heavily on roaster-level reputation than per-lot quality.

Mixed reviews· sentiment 58/100

Two independent Reddit comments give Greenway Coffee a mixed cafe picture. One Houston customer called an iced flat white their go-to and praised the flavored lattes, especially hazelnut. Another said Greenway was okay but that they were not a fan.
