| - This is really 3.5 stars, but that's not really an option, so....
I was there all day, so I sampled a few different things on the menu. First I had a CAPPUCCINO that was decent. I had a better one at The Coffee Bean earlier in the week, though.
Next I had the PEAR AND WALNUT SALAD. For a place that has a mantra "Fresh. Local. Organic.," this salad was way off the mark. The pears were clearly canned (blech!) and the balsamic dressing was the consistency of BBQ sauce. I'm guessing high fructose corn syrup is a main ingredient. :/ It's served over romaine, which is admittedly better than iceberg, but seriously? Where is the spinach, or at least 50/50 blend? The chicken also had an odd taste to it. The salad wasn't gross, it just wasn't that good, especially coming out at $10.50 (chicken is $1.75 add-on). Wouldn't be so harsh if the place didn't have "fresh and local" as a selling point.
Finally, I had the DRIP COFFEE, which is definitely worth trying! It's flavorful and each cup is done individually. I also, like other reviewers, felt guilty adding cream. (It's just how I take my coffee, okay?!)
The baristas were friendly. The place is A-OK.
Caution: Come with your laptop charged if you plan to do work. There are very few outlets.
