| - Two part review coming up, since I visited twice, once for breakfast once for after work snacking.
I was pretty amped for this borderline downtown cafe, dessert that's few steps from work. How awesome! I've driven by many times and thought 'what a sweet looking cafe, look at all the lovers sipping coffee, sharing dessert *sort of jealous face.*
Got my caramel macchiato here and it was very good. Good if you love 20 packs of sugar good. It was a go go go kind of morning. They don't have soy.
Second visit, I visited by car. What a horrible idea. There is no parking on the street side, and if you turn onto 6th there are only a few that are occupied by the apartment complex. If you can make that 4 lane merge, there's also a few on that side of the street too.
Lunch hour is pretty busy, but most people are getting their orders to go.
I ordered the Rose Milk Tea, that I had to ask to have water added to dilute the sugar. They have pressed grilled tuna sandwiches!!! $5 (really good price for downtown). The cake selection was abundant, and hard to choose one. I had a slice of the chocolate swiss roll cake and it was good. More cake then there was cream though.
If you are looking for a quiet place to have a initimate conversation over some coffee, this would be perfect. Slice of cake to share? Atmosphere is great, with ceiling to floor windows that let you watch the dt traffic and world go by. Food is ok, everything else being over sugared to my tastes though.
