They have a great patio and the interior of the caf\u00E9 is decorated with personality (especially the old car they have in there), though it doesn't overwhelm you. I love that there are huge windows and natural light is a key part of the caf\u00E9 ambiance. \n\nThe salads and sandwiches here are on the lighter side and I generally prefer coming here for coffee and snacks. I would recommend trying the latte here for a genuine latte experience. The pecan tart is delicious and I would safely say that the rest of the desserts offered would be just as tantalizing to the senses!\n\nGreat place for a chat with a friend or for a few hours of working!"^^ .
