Stopped by Black Locust to check out the changes they have made since it was A OK Coffee. The answer? Esthetically, almost nothing. They have yet to even paint over the old menu on the wall. That being said, the environment is very clean and crisp.
I arrived around 3:30 pm and was disappointed to learn they were only serving Bings at that point (no bowls, toast, eggs, or crepes!) This was a big bummer for me as I was looking forward to trying the crepes. Also, I'm not sure how much more challenging it would be to continue to serve crepes since the bings are essentially crepe sandwiches. Anyhow, I digress...
I ordered the Cu-bing and it arrived and was tasty, but nothing life changing. The experience was cheapened by the disposable paper and plastic basket presentation. I ordered the $1 donut from the bakery and that was good.
Bottomline: I'll be back again to try the crepes.
