The cafe offers a beautiful, spacious, and welcoming atmosphere that makes it a popular destination for both remote work and social gatherings.

I went last Saturday & ordered a mocha. First, the customer service was terrible. I said my name clearly, & the cashier gave me a completely different name. The service was slow, there were many customers waiting for their orders ( because the cashier was writting wrong names ) The mocha was awful-bitter, expensive, & tasteless.

Update: j'augmente la note! Ça quelques fois que j'y suis retourné & c'était parfait!

Le bon: la nourriture, spécialement le Doug lorsque bien fait.

Le moins bon: demandez un chocolat extra chaud & recevez littéralement tiède. Pas tiède chaud, tiède froid. Raison de la barista:' je peux pas le faire plus chaud, ça brûlera le lait.' avec attitude désobligeante en bonus. C'est arrivé 2 fois.

2e enjeu, je comprends que c'est dur à calculer, mais la quantité de sauce (pour le sandwich Doug) varie énormément d'un cook à l'autre. La dernière fois, il y en avait pratiquement pas, alors le goût était fade.

C'est pas des gros enjeux, mais c'est le genre d'irritants qui fait qu'on ne veux plus revenir ici... si seulement ils n'avaient pas un des meilleur sandwich déjeuné en ville, lorsqu'il est bien fait!

Very disappointing matcha latte. There was almost no matcha taste at all just warm milk. I also had to wait about 10 minutes even though there were only two people ahead of me. The color of the matcha looked nothing like what was shown in their photos. Definitely not worth the price.

Ce n'est plus comme avant:

J'attends depuis fin 2024 que mon beigne préféré revient. C'était le'Strawberry Cheesecake' je pense (peut être j'ai même oublié le nom, mais pas le goût) & à chaque fois je demande si on l'aura de nouveau mais ils n'ont aucune idée...
Mais la vraie raison de cet avis est que c'est la quatrième fois que je demande pour du café filtre & que leur réponse c'est que'la machine est brisée'. Ça fait presque un mois déjà !

the cashier didn't let us know flat white didn't come with iced option but barista was nice enough to remake a latte. They also didn't have decaf beans. We went on July 1st on the hotest day but the cafe was really hot which caused all the frosting on our donuts to melt. The kid made a big mess from the frosting😕
