This is about as local as it gets--I'm literally just a few houses west of this place. Why the heck did it take me 4 years to visit???
You can have food here or the usual coffee beverages. There is good seating inside and a nice little patio outside. I just had an espresso but would love to come back and drink a Steam here on a sunny, warm day.
The staff seem friendly. They know my downstairs neighbour because he popped in and was clearly a regular.
My guess is that this place exists to mostly serve the immediate area including General East Hospital. It is a nice place and I'll be more often.
