We decided to try a new place for coffee in Kingston and went to this cupcake shop, despite my other half hatred of the so-fashionable-but-very-often-tasteless-cupcakes. We ordered 2 pieces of cakes and coffees. When the waitress came with an espresso and a capuccino she asked us to tell her if the coffees were too strong or not enough as she could do them again to our liking... Now, I don't know about you, but it's the first time that I have been told that and I think it's great: the way I like my coffee might be different than yours and to give the customer an option to change their drinks is very good.
The coffee was delicious, my espresso was very smooth, not burnt, not acidic, just lovely as I like it.
The cakes (victoria sponge and coffee/walnut) were nice and both my other half and I left happy after a nice chat with the waitress and the lebanese owner who takes great pride in the quality of his coffee.
We will be back! read more
