So let me start this review by saying that I'm not really a coffee drinker. My bar is set at Starbucks (and I just lost all the coffee snobs in the room).
Ok, for those of you still with me, because I admittedly don't like plain coffee, I am pretty much a lightweight when it comes to what I order. I have a standard toffee nut latte that I get from Starbucks on those rare occasions when I want to pump sugar and caffeine into my body, and that's about it. The thing about the toffee nut flavoring is that other than Starbucks, little local coffee shops with limited menus never seem to have it. So even though Starbucks sort of sucks (my coffee snob friend has trained me to taste how they burn their beans) I deal with it for my favorite drink.
Except for Orbis! I went in today and practically hugged the owner behind the counter when I saw that she had a bottle of toffee nut flavoring sitting there. I quickly ordered a toffee nut latte, and it was AMAZING. I finally had my favorite drink without any burned beans, so I could fully appreciate the flavors.
When you eat or drink in the cafe they serve you at your table, and I'm always impressed by the presentation. The drinks always have little hearts in the foam and the plates are served with a teensy garnish bowl of fruit - usually fresh raspberries and blueberries. They do a pretty big breakfast rush, complete with a Sunday brunch. Their quiches are always exotic and fabulous and today I had some sort of cookie with nutella in it and just about died from happiness. Oh, and I've been there before and can attest that they also have an awesome selection of loose-leaf teas (because I *am* a tea snob and understand that well).
Totally love this place's cafe atmosphere - which is very cozy - and think the place is awesome. Come check it out!
