I appreciate their recent review on coffee and as I sit and wait for said coffee I cannot help but think over the attempted meal we just sat through. First and foremost my meal of sides was, as hoped good. My friends however have a very diffent tune to sing (note false names for annonimity are being used): Greg ordered a simple ham and cheese croissant, it was burnt. Darlene ordered multigrain toast.. this is where things get interesting. We say something, because as you can see there is a considerable lack of grain action going on with this toast. So we say something "there's no grains here" the manager comes out and argues "there is", poor form in my books. But that's the line the manager took. In the end we ended up with a replaced croissant and Darlene suffering through, that which she didn't order... So now we sit with exception coffees, I just wish the same could be said for both the service and the food :/ Result: come for coffee. That is all.

It didn't disappoint. The outside space can be a little too tight. But it is a nice spot for a brekkie. Friendly staff too.

They need to get rid of the energy drink stand and stop making it into a bland place. The seats out the front were iconic.

Also bring the French barista back in the mornings. Keep it real guys !!!

Absolutely disgusting bitter, cold coffee. I took one sip, placed the coffee on the table and walked out. Way over rated! read more Absolutely disgusting bitter, cold coffee. I took one sip, placed the coffee on the table and walked out. Way over rated!
