Steven Z.

Overall a decent coffee shop, but the interior wasn't that great. They use Counter Culture hologram beans for espresso. The regular latte was solid, and shockingly reasonably priced. If you want to treat yourself to something more festive~, you'll need to pay more. The interior is almost quaint. However I'm not sure if the wooden accents are dirty, or just "vintage". There's also limited uncomfortable bar seating. There's an awkward amount of standing room -- too large to hang out but too small to have more tables inside.

Ambience was very good, there's outdoor seating and also a bit of a quieter back room for breakfast/lunch hours. Service was quick and easy. Would definitely stop back in!

Oh, Ange Noir... I once had a love relationship with your food that was top-tier for years, I'd…read moreorder weekly! However, the takeout delivery has just got was dreadful. You've really went downhill. Everything is dreadfully smaller for the same price. You used to have a giant fluffy egg square on your breakfast sandwich and now I've gotten one lumpy small egg drenched in so much overly spicy sauce - that used to be more soft and palatable, I can't even taste anything else, to compensate for the lack of sandwich for over $12. Insane. The fries were the highlight of my meal and that's really saying a lot. $6.50 for one of the smallest iced coffees I've ever received... I think you're staying open on highway robbery alone. Or that the gentrifiers just don't give a damn. Honestly, I could've gotten something better at the Bodega for less than $35 after the Uber fees. I feel bad leaving this honestly, but... how you go from such a wonderfully established place to some dreadful experience is just sad. Do better, become yourself again, because unfortunately I won't be ordering anymore.

Shucks I wanted to give this place five stars but it didn't start so well. The first barista who…read moretook my order was really great. I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.

Got an iced latte here the other day. The space is huge! It would be a great place for meeting a…read morefriend or working (if you don't mind the noise from other people chatting). They have a good coffee selection. Prices are normal. The service was fast and friendly. Great cafe overall!
