Its a challenge to rate this place. I guess it depends on what you are looking for.
Studying: great at times, noisy at others due to music or others.
Talking: same as above. If there are lots of people studying, you almost feel bad talking, but it is a public place.
Coffee: I haven't had all available items but the regular coffee is so so which is what I usually drink.
I studied here in college regularly and love the atmosphere; students as well as locals create an Intellectual and sophisticated feel. It is lively Friday and Sunday nights. I used to drink coffee with my friends and enjoyed so many great conversations. The house itself is old and creates a great atmosphere. In Fall and winter the place is cozy and spring/summer refreshing with outdoor seating on a nice lawn area.
This is not a fancy Starbucks or other chain, it is a real cafe which in my opinion is how they should be, loaded with character and unique. They do need to focus on coffee quality since it is after all a cafe.
