    Mocha latte
    Sne G.

    Amazing place, beautifully done interiors and great vibe to chill and sip a cup of coffee. We ordered a mocha latte , chocolate tart, blueberry yogurt cake, Afagato and let me tell you. It did not disappoint. I requested for my drink to be extra hot, and it they delivered. I'd definitely be coming back , and see being a regular here. Gem of a coffee place in livingston.

    Renovation is still happening at the coffee shop but there are plenty of tables there to relax and enjoy your coffee! There's WiFi, so bring your laptop and work there! Service was wonderful. The barista was very attentive and helpful. I ordered a matcha latte and almond croissant. They were both super good. Croissant was fresh and went great with my latte! Will def go back to try other items on menu. Tip: They don't accept cash. And download app to receive 20% off first order.

    The parking lot is a bit much to deal with (very small considering the huge amount of seating they have inside) and they didn't have any gluten free bakery items available when we went but my matcha latte was well mixed by hand with a solid quality matcha and the perfect amount of sweetener. They did mention they are getting blueberry GF muffins but I'd prefer a chocolate one so will come back when they do.

    Flat white in a latte mug

    Lots of seating and friendly service. We ordered a flat white and a latte along with two pastries. The pastries are from Balthazar so they're always good. The drinks were just okay. They don't have flat white cups so they just take a 12oz latte mug and fill it appropriately. Both drinks weren't very creamy, despite the foaming.

    What a beautiful place to enjoy a cup of coffee and to indulge in baked goods from Balthazar! We had their Americano and iced mocha latte ( half decaf, almond milk). Americano was rich, mocha latte had a good ratio of coffee:milk and just a hint of cocoa. Even at half decaf, it still packed a punch of caffeine. We also had their egg and pepperoni sandwich which was warm wrapped in foil. Their yogurt from their refrigerated section was good. For pastries, i had their cheese and pepper danish for something savory. Pretty flaky and good! And of course it should be because it's from Balthazar. Interior is beautiful wood, brass, brick and seating area is enormous. Service was friendly, and our drinks were served in cups and glasses for dine-in. My pastry was not reheated and no offer to warm it up, but it would've been a nice touch esp for dine-in. Cc, Apple Pay, cash, private lot on the side. Would recommend!

    Very beautiful cafe. Great ambiance to work or study in. They also have great drinks. We tried a latte and a matcha and the matcha was very legit. They also have nice looking pastries and sandwiches but I didn't get to try any that day.

    So happy to make this update - seems like the owner or manager was here today training lots of new staff. I think they were understaffed during my previous visit. Will be continuing to come here!

With a vibrant interior and welcoming atmosphere, the Twisted Tulip should not be skipped. I came here on a Tuesday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of folks working on laptops. This is the perfect place to curl up with a beverage of choice, little snack, and buckle down to get some work done. Despite the amount of people, the noise volume was moderate. Service was good, but a little brisk. The interior is decorated with various pieces of art and there are dog treats in the front for your pet. The exterior has outdoor seating which is really nice. I got the pistachio macaron which was the perfect texture, but a bit lacking in flavor. I also got the pumpkin marshmallow latter which was surprisingly not that sweet to my relief. It really hit that pumpkin flavor spot. Price point was $10 with $1 tip, pretty standard for this area. In my previous visits, I got the chai latte which I thoroughly enjoyed. This is the perfect hang out spot for group projects or for getting work done. Can't recommend enough.

The brown sugar oat latte was good too, it must be their equivalent of the Starbucks brown sugar shaken oat milk espresso, it tasted pretty similar and considering all the crazy things I've been seeing in the news about Starbucks, I will gladly come here instead of there.

I knew I would be there at a certain time so I placed an online order for three sea salt coffees. I made sure they would be ready at a certain time that the app let me set. Also to note I've been here a few times and it's a very typical 85° which has a few tables to sit at and definitely keeps it very basic and bakery feeling. I get there about a half hour later and my coffee is not ready yet even though it was supposed to be ready 2 minutes before. I stood there for a while and finally someone came up to the coffee counter and asked if I needed anything. I said I was simply just waiting for my online order that I placed over a half hour ago. He went over to his computer and printed it out and got started on it but doesn't really give me a lot of confidence in placing online orders in the future. The worker did apologize and I appreciate that so four stars for now. As I was leaving, a lady who was also waiting for her coffee noted that she did the same thing and apparently they don't have all of their ducks in a row yet.

Plus add LavAzza Coffee to the mix and We'll "officially" be friends for life, Lol. Seriously though Cafe Z is one of the Coolest Brunch Spots around. Everything off this Italian Inspired Menu looks interesting and incredibly delicious. Example: for Breakfast I've tried their "Muffin" Sandwich which comes loaded with Scrambled Eggs, Sausage, Pepper Jack Cheese, Caramelized Onions, and Chipotle Aioli on a massive Toasted English Muffin and It doesn't get any better than that = Out'Freakin'Standing !! Baked Goods here too are also worth checking out and obviously go hand in hand with any of their delicious house made Beverages. It is "Summertime Yummertime" so I do enjoy Shaking Hands with an Iced Coffee now and then while I'm hanging out so why not make it LavAzza for the WiN??  Rhetorical of course. I usually don't offer an opinion on "ambiance" or "atmosphere" most of the time as I'm really just focused on the final product and how I can shove it in My Face, but since we're friends I can honestly say that this place does have a really cool vibe to it. Every picture tells a story don't it? And they do have alot to look at up in here. Plus You can add Fast Friendly Service and Extra Parking in the back lot for an easy Five Star experience each and every time.

Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad.

Both of these were served at the perfect temperature, were richly creamy, and served in large mugs. I also ordered a Carrot Cake Muffin and it was very good. It was moist, each forkful had a decent amount of walnuts, and the frosting was exquisite. Once you're finished with your food, don't forget to stroll through the entire cafe.
