Sorry, Zavida, I really tried to like you, but this is my second visit and your brewed coffee is one of the worst I've ever had. I tried the dark roast during my last visit and wasn't a fan, so I ordered a medium roast today, thinking that perhaps it would be kinder to my palate. I took one sip and the first thing I noticed was a weird ashy/smoky aftertaste. The rest of my experience wasn't any better. The coffee was so bitter and unpleasant to drink that I couldn't even finish it (and neither could my partner).
This makes me sad, Zavida! I really love this location and it has everything I need for a good productive study session: reliable free wifi, plenty of power outlets, music playing at a low volume, a decent number of tables. Plus it has the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a coffee shop. Fine, I guess I'll have to give you another chance... Perhaps I'll have better luck with your espresso-based drinks.
