I have been here a few times and every time I leave I tell myself I should return soon (not only…read morebecause they have great treats, but because the owners are the sweetest couple and deserve steady business). However, whenever I try to get back here I get lost! Considering they are only a few blocks from my house it is pretty embarrassing.
This is partially why I have decided to write a review, so their address gets saved in my favorites. The other part is because this cafe is awesome! It has real, rich espresso and homemade cakes and cookies. I especially love their cookies. Their mousse is also pretty good!
Like I said in the beginning, the owners, an old married couple, are extremely sweet, just like their cakes (too much?) The husband started Matisse for his wife, so she could serve her cakes (how cute is that?!)
If you live around here, come and meet them and enjoy a coffee and cake.
