Café à Rome draws mixed feedback: cappuccino is boiling hot at first but drinkable after a few minutes, and the coffee overall is excellent with breakfast being well liked. A recurring problem is breakfast availability, as staff say it is no longer available each time, even though the menu does not indicate hours, a point that needs correction. Service is another major concern, with staff appearing to work out of obligation, lacking warmth, eye contact, explanations, or responses to greetings or thanks, and sometimes starting the order before the customer has finished speaking. With an attitude like this, despite attachment to the café, some reviewers doubt they will return. A turkey and avocado sandwich is described as having no avocado, and salads are good but the tomatoes are not peeled well.View restaurant profile
