It's casual, the people are great, the atmosphere is warm & cozy, you can pick a game from the stack on the wall. And did I mention they have superb espresso? No?
Well they have SUPERB espresso. It is dense, rich, almost grainy/mealy in consistency, with lots of unctious crema - - which is the sign of a perfect pull. It is roasted locally, in an Italian style, but will top your everyday espresso in Italy. It's dark/full roasted, but with enough aromatics to make it a great all-rounder. My friends had croissant with jam and the like, and it looked pretty and tantalizing, though I can't be tempted by anything but a world-class espresso or macchiato.
Did I mention that they have the game Operation, and they keep the batteries fresh (in case the espresso wasn't making you jumpy/edgy enough)? No?
The place is a joy. read more
