Boxcar Social is pretty much exactly what I'd want in a coffee shop - knowledgable staff, gorgeous space to relax and enjoy a cuppa and of course delicious coffee. While I love the cozy backyard patio and intimate atmosphere of the original location, this one is just way more spacious and light saturated--making it a prime spot for day time lounging or a serious study session.
I ordered a cortado and pistachio croissant. The croissant was effing delicious.. I'm pretty sure I would have ordered a second one if my subconscious didn't tell me otherwise. It was flaky but had this amazing pistachio filling similar to a chocolate almond croissant. Get it if they have it--no regrets (asides from knowing it's an indulgence)!! The cortado was also spot on--perfectly silky and the espresso had no bitter or sour aftertaste.
My only complaint about this location is the checkout station was very minimal so I was a bit confused as to where I should place my order at first.
