Went right at open time & the person working was not friendly at all, didn't even say hello or goodbye… literally nothing. Starting your day with an unfriendly barista is not the best way to start the day.

Also, I think because I was there right at open…the baked goods I got were leftover from the day before & were very stale.

Overall, quite disappointing & would recommend walking a bit further to Columbus Cafe.

The employee was facetiming with his phone in his hand while serving me like it was nothing. He kept talking with his earbuds. Extremely rud & unprofessional. August 7th, 7h00 am.
*August 11th 7h00...same thing. I had to repeat 3x my order because he was still face timing...

Mon café préféré, j'y vais souvent ! Leur latte matcha est toujours délicieux, les croissants à la pistache sont les meilleurs, & le sandwich au poulet méditerranéen est excellent. Un endroit chaleureux avec une qualité toujours au rendez-vous. Je le recommande sans hésiter !
