My London Fog was very weak tasting and made with either a syrup or powder, not a tea bag. I wouldn't order that there again. Their large size is a good size cup, unlike a lot of other cafés.The atmosphere was very fancy and pretty.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a front counter, friendly staff, and a selection of freshly baked goods on display. My almond latte, though a bit watery, was decent. I plan on trying the food next time. The seating area is open to the mall, but I enjoyed the large window offering a panoramic view of south downtown 4th Street below. Overall, it is a good café to visit, especially if you are in The Core and looking for a relaxing place to sit and unwind.

I've gotten takeout from here before but this was the first time I actually sat down and got to take in the atmosphere. Paired with the cappuccino I got, it felt really relaxing and nice. The only thing that stuck out to me was that I thought the barista would bring the coffee over to me, especially since I was the only there at the time. A small thing and not a big deal, but I guess it's the little gestures that make an impact. Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: $1–10

I came back twice to try the tiramisu since it tasted divine . A little noisy as there’s club music. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Price per person: $20–30
