Friends or Flirts?

I’m absolutely horrid at discerning if women like me. I’m going to ask her out soon anyway but wondering if people here think this woman is just very friendly with me or flirting? Note that we work at the same company (but not together) and idk if she’s got a bf.

-She’s complimented my outfit before.
-She’s started touching me. Once very playfully on the arm and 4-5 other times by gently touching me on the bicep.
-When we IM she sends a lot of smiley faces and spells words like “whyyyyyyy?????”
-She just asked for my number when I asked her for restaurant recs. Definitely no reason she couldn’t IM me with these
-I IM’ed her for the recs and she texted me instead
-She saw me the other day and smiled and said “hey, you” which I took as flirty personally.
-I asked her if she wanted to grab coffee, and she said she just went and sent frowning faces, but then she said she’d still go with me to the cafe in our building for coffee. Then she came and talked to me and my friend for like 30+ min
-We’ve now gotten coffee a few times together but sometimes with her office mate and mine so not totally alone
-I feel like I see her look at me, though I’m of course looking at her often.
-She seems happy to see me when I see her.
-She stands quite close to me when we’re together
-She once asked about my somewhat recent breakup (would’ve asked her about her status but the subject got changed and it would’ve been awk to go back to this)
-We talk about what we do in our personal lives a little bit like her trips and my plans, etc. she remembers things about me

There are a lot of small things in addition. On the other hand we interact in a work environment and I don’t see how she interacts with other men for the most part. My gut and feelings say yes but my friend likes to pump the brakes

It depends whether she's like this with everyone or not because there are overly friendly people who may even flirt but it's just platonic.
Ask her if she has a bf and if she's single ask her if it's by choice or whether she's open to meeting someone and what sort of guy she'd be into.
