    TooGoodToGo
    Stan H.

    Coffee slushie was delicious and hours are pretty good for working full time remotely. They have WiFi and seems to have a crowd but not too busy and quiet. Tucked away in a corner of a neighborhood where I would feel comfortable to hang. The random pastries were okay but I felt more should've been offered or maybe 3.49 instead of 3.99 would have made it feel more worthwhile to me with my personal feel for the vibe of TooGoodToGo

    Peanut butter and fig toast and breakfast sandwich
    Roxanne O.

    Employees were friendly but somehow didn't smile the entire time, haha. The place is huge--there's the half near the counter with small tables and another sectio with larger tables to work at. The coffees were good, we got two hot lattes with almond and oat milk respectively. The almond milk seems to be pre sweetened, so a bit sweet for me. We also ordered a bag of beans, as they roast their own to take home. We had a peanut and fig toast and a breakfast toast. The breakfast sandwich had the cheese melted in the center of the egg, which was nice. The toast was thick, with warm peanut butter spread on top, figs, drizzled with honey and sprinkled with salt. I may try making this again at home. It was super hot out, so I wish they didn't leave the door open--it made it ridiculously cold inside as the ac kept blasting to make up for the heat coming in.

    Cold brew

    This place looks amazing inside. The staff wasn't bad but not the friendliest, aside from that the cold brew and morning roll were delicious.

    Super chill place to work during weekdays. Great drinks & friendly staff, with plenty of seating and a large connected lounge area. I personally love the cinnamon toast and their rotating iced teas.

    Iced Matcha and Chai Lattes
    PhillyByTheCupfu L.

    Love this new location! The staff is friendly and the space is big enough to sit for a while without feeling like you're in the way. The lattes were perfect, and it was nice to sip and talk while escaping the afternoon heat. I also tried the oatmeal raisin cookie, which wasn't too sweet, not stingy with the raisins and not too 'oaty'. This will definitely be a neighborhood go-to for me.

I don't think I've ever visited an an hour where I've seen it not. Often a line going from the counter, down the stairs, all the way to the bathroom. If you're looking for a quick coffee stop, don't expect to be in and out of here. That being said, they've got some kinds of seating not typical of coffee shops, including this nice long U-shaped couch seating. You'll be around with other folks reading or enjoying their joe, but it's a nice change of pace. Working-wise, wi-fi is solid. Outlets are sparse. Hard to stay a long time here. Music is at least at a tolerable level to tune out and is not usually too bumping. Staff here are quick, but won't be the friendliest. They won't be rude either. They're just trying to get through the line so don't take it personally Overall: would much prefer other places like Capital One Cafe for the reasons I visit cafes, but I can see this being a nice place for other more leisurely-natured visits!

    Twisted Grounds is a quiet little gem tucked away from the main hustle and bustle of the city…read more The employees are really nice and welcoming. Service is quick. It is a very small shop, so there are only a few tables inside, along with a few outside depending on the weather. Although small, the interior is clean and cozy. A single restroom is available. Parking is on the street. Mild noise level. They have a good amount of drink options, including rotating specials, as well as pastries, bread, and misc items like granola and coffee beans. The drinks are delicious - definitely recommend their matcha. The pastries are huge, flavorful, and filling. Slightly dry but I did go right before closing. They have a nice variety of flavors (both sweet and savory), so most palettes will be satisfied. Prices are definitely fair. If I weren't just a traveler passing through, this would easily become a regular spot for me. It's at least on the "must return to" list! 10/10 recommend.

The service was also super kind and answered all my questions I had beforehand.

This swanky, hip place…read moreoffers up elevated tasty food and superb service in an exquisitely decorated, albeit small, cafe. We braved negative degree weather for the roughly 10 minute walk from our hotel. We walked in at a good time. This is the type of place where a reservation for breakfast would be required. We were sat immediately. The dining area is tight. A green velvet bench, marble tables, metal chairs, all packed into a small area. You could very well have your butt brush over the table of the patrons next to you if you have to get up for any reason. It's tight. Our server was around quickly. He was super friendly and kept things conversational, light and sophisticated. My wife ordered an iced latte, I had their hot drip coffee. For a starter, we had to try the cinnamon knot bread. While it wasn't what we were expecting, it was good. Although, we wouldn't order again. The bread is presented as a small loaf, room temperature with a cold cream cheese icing drizzled over top. The bread had a mild cinnamon flavor and was dry. It lacked the sweet, moist dough you expect from a cinnamon bread. My wife ordered the French style omelet. This had gruyere cheese and chives. Beautifully plated, perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on. It was good enough to forget that she paid $21 for just an omelet, no meat, no sides. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Pretty standard here. The eggs had bright orange yolks which is common for farm fresh eggs. The "coffee" hollandaise didn't come across with a coffee flavor but it was rich and went well with the ham and English muffins. One thing that stuck with me was their drip coffee. Not sure if it has been a while since I had a light roast but the Rival Bros. Revolver coffee was so good, I got a bag of whole beans to bring back home with me. I may even order it again online. Enswell succeeded on all fronts. The ambiance and service was great. The decor, impeccable. The food, thoughtful and tasty. The details from the silverware to the plates added to the experience. We would come back.

    I thought this place was very cute. Outdoor limited seating…read moreand indoor area as well. The appeal was to get a quick read in amd have my pup with me. I felt like I ordered the wrong combination. I was able to do an egg sandwich and swap for sourdough bread vs eng muffin. Love that. Didn't love the copper sharp cheese that was a bit messy and tangy. I kept thinking they must have added some type of sauce on it. I'd much rather come back for a simple fried egg combo and chedda cheese. I was also offered sparkling water, but I do wish it had more fizz. The service start to finish was superb in friendly and fast service. I'd come back for mimosa/bar for sure.

Each morning, I visited this café during my last visit and enjoying a cup of hot chocolate both times. One of the first things I noticed as I walked into the café was the atmosphere. It felt welcoming! My hot chocolate had the smooth richness and was great to start the morning off. There were plenty of tables to sit at in the morning. The style of the café was great with a modern and clean, yet warm enough to make those early morning hours seem somewhat purposeful, and not as rushed as they could be! If you're looking for breakfast options, it is slightly limited at this café. There were some muffins and baked goods available. My experience with El Café in The Hilton Mōttō was very good overall. I enjoyed the hot chocolate. It was rich, smooth and perfect comfort in the morning on the go. The customer service was also great! They were friendly, helpful and welcoming. Additionally, I thought the prices for their coffee and hot chocolate was reasonable. I'd stop by El Café again if I stay at the Hilton Motto.
