| - I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. I'm a tried-and-true kind of girl, and straying away from coffee shops I know and adore to experiment with new cafes that may very well be serving up battery acid mixed with milk isn't my style. But Cherry Bomb isn't a typical cafe. It's like the hybrid of your mother's kitchen combined with an amazing bakery AND a great coffee shop, PLUS the friendliest group of people around. There's a lingering scent of sweet pastries and coffee in the air, delightfully paired with a clean, welcoming interior.
I stopped in for a coffee the other day and was very satisfied with my cappuccino. Of particular note is the fact that they offer several sizes of espresso-based beverages (S, M, L) -- even if it's not the traditional 6 oz, sometimes I just want to have the option of ordering a giant cup of cappuccino (is that so wrong?)!
The plain croissants here are wonderful; really crispy and flaky on the outside and soft and light on the inside. I've also tried the cheese croissant which I personally found a bit too cheese-heavy, so I recommended trying the plain first unless you're a real cheese lover. Yes, it's a bit strange that all the baked goods are hoarded away behind the counter, but don't be shy to ask! Looking forward to returning to try more of the baked goods, particularly the scones. You've won me over, Cherry Bomb.
