| - I love supporting local businesses, but didn't love this one. Granted, I didn't get a bunch of stuff - just a regular coffee and an eclair - but both were disappointing. The coffee - fine, if it's not a fancy coffee, it'll do. But they charge more than a dollar for refills, which is super-weird as every other coffee place allows for free refills.
As a dessert lover, I was deeply saddened by my eclair. It was dry and tasteless. Give me flaky! Give me tons of chocolate and cream! Okay, if the treat isn't satisfying, at least present it well - I asked for a plate instead of a carry-out box and got... a small styrofoam plate. Not even a real plate, Nova's? Come now, you can splurge for a plate for 25 cents at Goodwill! Use the coffee-refill money you're making.
The last thing on my checklist is great atmosphere if all else fails, but alas... this didn't do justice to the "cozy independent bakery" scene. Super small space, no special decorations, though I did like the little book section.
Sorry, Nova's! I'll be looking elsewhere for my bakery fix.
