Café Alphabet is widely praised as a welcoming, stylish spot with top notch coffee and a diverse menu of Freddo, matcha, and baked goods. The vibe is warm, cozy, modern with a Greek inspired touch, and the space feels both instagrammable and comfortable for reading, working, or socializing. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and generous, creating a strong sense of community and hospitality. While drinks and pastries earn high marks, some reviewers note occasional misses like overly sweet matcha, foam that lacks fullness, or crowds that make seating and pacing rough. There are comments about price being a bit high but fair given quality, and some feedback about neighborhood impact and the need for clearer crowd control. The Freddo and matcha beverages are signature items with particular praise for the creamy foam and smooth textures, and pastries like carrot cake and spanakopita are highlighted. Overall Café Alphabet is described as a standout and a must visit for coffee lovers, with many eager to return and some hoping for broader recognition.
Café Alphabet is a delightful spot nestled near Bernie Beigne, & it's truly a gem! I recently enjoyed a cup of coffee there, & the barista's attention to detail was remarkable. When he sprinkled my cinnamon, it was like watching an artist at work, creating a beautiful masterpiece atop my coffee. The atmosphere is cozy & inviting, perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment of relaxation. With its proximity to Bernie Beigne, it's the ideal place to start your day with a delicious coffee & a tasty treat. Café Alphabet has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite coffee spots in town!

Went there April 18th to meet our daughter & friend. Owners bent over backwards to help us find a table & were very welcoming. The atmosphere & beverages were awesome! Highly Recommend
Wow !! I've never had a Freddo Cappuccino before & let me tell you that it will not be the last time! The coffee was everything I imagined, it was so decadent. The baristas were extremely nice. When we ordered he offered to make our coffee a bit sweeter which was such a good decision. Also, when I came to pick up the coffee he told me to come up to the counter so that I could see him put the frothed cold milk & he did not mind me filming the process. It's great to go to a coffee shop or even a restaurant & see that the people working there are passionate about what they're doing & always in a good mood. I loved how accessible the owners were, one of them came up to us just to talk when we were outside which was really nice. In general, the atmosphere was very lively & relaxed at the same time, the choice of music with the background noise of people outside enjoying the sun was perfect. Would 110% come back & try the Freddo Matcha.
Solid four for their coffee. The Fredo is interesting but FYI to Aussies & Kiwis, their coffee may not bold enough to carry a flat white by your standards.

Café victime de sa popularité! Très achalandé mais attente acceptable! Le service est excellent (anglais & français) Goût de leur espresso vraiment original! Très bon & pas du tout amer! J'ai adoré le fredo cap 😋
The freddo culture is just so real. Best Greek coffee I've ever tasted & that freddo top is perfection. Great vibes, always want to go back on a sunny day, grab my coffee & chill. Absolutely amazing vibes
I liked this place specially their customer service, it was so warm & genuine. I got a flat white & it was well executed. The place is small & since it's popular there aren't many tables but it is understandable. Keep it up!
