| - There isn't lots of room to study; most tables are typically being used, but if you do find a spot, it's a great place to work. Typically quiet, with a noise level just above library-silence, and a nice bright ambiance in the "green" room. The "yellow" room is typically just a little bit noisier, but still relatively quiet compared to Espresso Royale. Music barely audible and of the "indie" variety, and there is always free naturally-flavored water! I love this place, but wish it would be open later than midnight. I could honestly work here for hours at a time.
Docking 1 star only because it's usually hard to find a good spot.
I guess I should say something about the beverages... I haven't consumed food here, so I will leave that out, though I will say it is available and seems tasty if you want a quick refuel. Coffee-- I've had a few of the different concoctions and have never been disappointed. I am particularly in love with their "miel" coffee, which is basically honey and milk with coffee.
Tea, however, is the surprise triumph, here. I don't know what they do to their green tea latte, but it's different and greatly superior to any other I've ordered pretty much anywhere. The bold green "earthiness" is balanced with a sweet shot of vanilla. This is typical of green tea lattes, but the one at Kopi is particularly "earthy," for the lack of a better descriptor. I also love the regular teas, plentiful in selection and served with an adorable teapot if you're drinking in-house.
Five stars, minus the lack of seats. If you find one, you're set.
