It felt very much like a local hangout, as the staff seemed to prioritize chatting with their regulars over serving customers. On a positive note, the pastry and coffee were excellent. However, it was clear that they didn't seem to welcome newcomers. It's unfortunate because I'm new to the area and was hoping to find a cozy local spot, but after my first experience, I won't be returning.

Even though my dog is a service animal, she didn't ask about it; she just assumed and told me that no dogs were allowed. She then asked me to leave and said she would bring my coffee outside. On a positive note, the honey cake was delicious! It was my first time trying it, and I learned that it's quite popular here.
