Exceptional coffee with brisk & friendly service. The ham & cheese panini was simple & tasty, & our pistachio donut was a new experience we really enjoyed. The decor is very cool & really expresses the italian theme, & there is a spacious patio outside of the intimate interior. Would recommend to anybody for a quick & tasty breakfast.

A gem in the city with some of the best tasting coffee. Coffee & pastries are top notch - the ham & cheese sandwich I had wasn't at the same level
