My first experience with Bumpy's was a few years ago when one of my coffee-snob friends from Vancouver was in town and wanted to check the place out.
I was not dissapointed. The drinks we got (trad cap, espresso, latte, chai latte) were all well made, delicious, and well presented. They definitely love the art of coffee there and it shows. Their chai latte is the best I have ever had. They use real loose leaf chai in the preparation (not that gross syrup you can get elsewhere). The end result is to die for!
I have been back a few times, but not as many times as I like. They have limited hours (till 5pm) and I don't work downtown. The only time I can ever go is on the weekend and I have seen lineups out the door. Unfortunately I am usually busy with errands so I have balked at the line a few times.
The muffins are out of hand (as my friend Bren would say) and the Paninis have always been tasty.
Their hours of operation and my inibility to enjoy their coffee as often as I would like are the only reason why I have given them 4 stars out of 5.
