| - a new coffee cafe downtown...hmmm there are quite a few, so perhaps my expectations were high.
I invited 3 friends to meet me to test out the new neighbor, we were pleasantly greeted and since the place was empty we had our choice of seats.
Perc Up occupies the former spaces of Drip & Toast...It is clear that some money was spent on the interior / decor, but maybe the money wouldve been better spent on the food!
Back to the food - the coffee was decent, not great. The food choices were limited, but the waitress reminded us a million times that they feature a full brunch on sat...anyways, the pickings were slim today. We ordered a yogurt parfait, oatmeal, SW breakfast wrap and the veggie quiche. All were just fine, but not great and clearly nothing that creative! In fact the 'house made english muffin' (yes i was thinking MJ sourdough, my mistake) was horrible - and one of my dining companions pointed out that it looked like a Fresh and Easy purchase!
Service, although friendly was spotty - however she did get busy with to-go coffee orders.
I love breakfast, but didnt love perc-up...the space was nice, but not enough that I would choose to come here over the many other selections that downtown offers (giant, lola, jobot...).
until perc up, perc ups their offerings i will not be back
