The space is small but charming, with window seating and a lively outdoor area, and it can get crowded, especially on busy days. Service is generally fast and welcoming, though a few reports note occasional slow moments or drink variability when busy. A newer location nearby preserves the same friendly feel. Overall, Café Ferlucci is seen as a reliable spot for a quick caffeine fix or a relaxed hangout, offering affordable prices, a celebrated Nutella affogato, and a cozy, vintage-inspired ambiance that many consider a favorite in the area.View restaurant profile

Dohie's Desserts is described as a small but vibrant spot where croissants are exceptional and the desserts are unique and delicious, with many ingredients imported from Italy. The staff is friendly, the interior is clean and welcoming, and the menu centers on donuts, cookies, and croissants. Reviewers note a wide variety that makes it hard to choose, with favorites like red velvet and pistachio cookies and a chocolate hazelnut croissant, while some cookies are milder in sweetness and toppings can shift in transit; donuts are generously filled but non filled varieties can feel dry. Prices are in line with artisanal pastries and a mix box is seen as pricey but reflective of quality. The spot is located in a busy area with parking that can be limited, and the Instagram presence is described as engaging. Overall, opinions point to a satisfying visit worth trying for a range of creative pastries.View restaurant profile
