    Cortado =)

    Had a delicious cortado made by very friendly employees ahead of the Paradise City Art Festival! Highly recommend!

    Coffee was fantastic! We had a S'mores cold brew, maple iced mocha and an iced gingerbread latte. The compost cookie was delish! Staff was friendly and patient while the 3 of us decided. Love the clean modern look of the place, for a small spot it was airy and relaxing!

    I'm surprised to see little reviews. Staff was friendly today. Looks like they have an eclectic relationship with a brewery and small batch items available. Interesting selections. Basic like an egg salad sandwich "with pickle" which makes it the interesting part on a sweet roll for example. Pictured cinnamon chino latte. Not sweet more natural taste. Choco chip cookie was a crisp one, good. Not chewy and soft. However I usually go for the chewy.... This one was pretty good for a crisper thick cookie. Practical, clean, airy vibe on the way in. Music - house / hipster cafe house. Big A plus. Nice chill sound. Not too loud. Appropriate.

    Balagan is the best. We love Valerie and resident cutie, Noach. Chai and coffee are great. Consistently amazing.

    Tart Baking Company is owned by Shelburne Falls and Catalpa Coffee- all three being alternate…read morecoffee stores in Noho. This means, that the coffee you get here is going to be Catalpa roasted beans, but with a higher selection of "fancy" pastries. (The apricot croissant I had was very very delicious. ) I do not love Catalpa espresso as much as Shelburne Falls coffee, because it has a very sweet taste with a bitter finish, I prefer something that is more of an earthy or mellow light roast. Just smelling the ground coffee makes you think of something flowery and sharp. They have limited breakfast sandwiches and a few drink specials that remind me of what they have over at Catalpa . Unfortunately, because all three stores are linked, that means none of them have soy milk anymore, which is my go to espresso add-in. It is even still on the sign at the counter. The staff is friendly, and it's at a nice spot near where Shelburne Falls used to be. Their main advertisement is their croissant, so four stars for having a super delicious croissant. For not having any seating, and advertising soy milk and having any, one star deduction.

    Croissants are often overcooked or stale. This place used to be a gem, but has gone downhill over…read morethe past year or so. Got an almond croissant and it was very dark on the bottom - so disappointed. Cookies were good but expensive. They used to have such a variety of pastries and other baked goods. Now, it is hit or miss. Whomever is baking the croissants needs some training. Got a spinach feta croissant which used to be a favorite of ours, but was almost black on the bottom/inedible. Looked ok in the case. So sad this bakery no longer lives up to the standards it set in the past.
