Tucked away on a serene street, it boasts a few outdoor tables, excellent coffee, and some delightful pastries. As someone who enjoys charming small cafés with personality, I truly value this place. The only reason I'm not awarding it five stars is my disappointment with the iced coffee—served half-filled in a small plastic cup without a straw (they definitely need to offer straws). Aside from that, it's a wonderful spot. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I've missed them a lot, but it's quite a trek for me to get there from uptown now. I'm grateful to the staff for keeping me informed about when the Lemon Bichon is available so I don’t miss out! They’re just as delicious as always. I absolutely love them! They really brighten my day. If the café offered delivery, I’d definitely order a dozen! Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
