Reviews
"Bitterest espresso I ever had, and I drink a lot of espresso. Would not order again, it seemed burned. The food looks good and the staff were fine, would come back for other items."
"The hot drinks are barely warm. The chai was $6.00! The employee was fed up with me for asking him to make it hotter - borderline rude. This is the 2nd time I ran into rude employees - no customer service. Otherwise, the place is nice."
"The BLT sandwich was okay, but a bit pricey. The truffle quiche was good. The coffee was bold. A distracting news-feed reader-board feature and mock TV set are what set this cafe apart. Nevertheless, it feels like a library."
"It's a decent café to stop by at when you want a quick bite. I got a large hot chocolate with a slice of their blueberry lemon loaf. The hot chocolate was nice; it tasted like actual mocha sauce and milk and none of that powdered stuff. Sadly, I was told they don't do anything with whipped cream so it wasn't an option as a topping. The bread, though, I will say was on the dry and stiff side. It tasted amazing but these breads to all sit in the display case and then are served once ordered. I feel like it would have tasted better if it was warmed up but they didn't ask me if I wanted it as such, so I'm assuming they just don't have that as an option. I will say, two items for about $10 is a bit much and their large cup doesn't feel like a large, but I could be wrong. Maybe it's just their portion sizes. Their stuff tastes good, they have plenty of options, and you get to sit right in front of where they give news updates sometimes."
"it was okay. bit of a novelty to watch them broadcasting while you eat, but not something i was very into. the food was fine, but nothing to write home about. i got a quiche (which seemed under baked), a cupcake (which was dry), and a matcha latte (that i could tell was made with extremely low quality matcha and was very bitter and a bit alkaline tasting). overall, underwhelming."
