Little elegant cafe I found on my way back from my mini vacation. Let me just say this place is clean and you may feel underdressed with all the fancy chandeliers. Also, they have Italian vehicle photos all over the wall. A nice touch but random for a cafe, but anyone can express their vision in any way they want to. The music is nice too, and I really enjoyed the experience. Honestly it feels like I’m in another country.
I chose the americano with soy milk and devoured their breakfast panini (egg & avocado) and it is delightful.
Espresso was perfect. Interior was beautiful. But something was wrong.
It’s hard to ignore it.
It’s hard to enjoy it once you see it.
My heart dropped and I lost that thrill-before-the-pour.
I had even asked for my espresso “for here” before I had realized the horror. Like a hideous face taking shape in the dark I suddenly became aware of the awful truth.
There’s no WiFi.
Not even a password protected WiFi.
Not a drop.
Why have Ferraris decorating your walls if your own Ferrari doesn’t have wheels?
Even if you’re taking me to another country. Even if you’re taking me to another time. A coffee shop with indoor seating and modern amenities has certain market expectations:
Coffee shops with chairs should have networks with guest WiFi.
I got the breakfast panini and the bread was nice and crispy yet fluffy. The eggs were warm and fluffy, and paired quite well with the dark mocha I got. I also got an apricot crostata, which had a light buttery taste with the tangy apricot flavor and wasn't too sweet.
I didn't have time to eat, but it smelled amazing and people waiting in line to order. I just had a really good coffee while I wanted for my grandson's birthday party nearby. I came in from out of town.
Wow! I can't tell you how much we enjoyed this gem of a coffee cafe! I loved in Italy for two years back in the 80's and still remember how awesome the espresso and Panini's were. I had a plain latte and a double espresso and both were outstanding. The espresso shot was smooth and flavorful, not acidic at all.
My wife had a Carmel latte and we also split a breakfast sandwich. The eggs were fluffy and the bread was sooooo good! Trust me, go here, you won't regret it. It seems everyone there was Italian and the owner moved here from Italy... Thank you for that! We were here on vacation and very glad that we found this place, even for a day.!!
I had to pay another review since we came back before leaving the area. We split the breakfast sandwich and aRustico sandwich that has prosciutto Di Parma arugula and white truffle extra virgin oil! It was fabulous! The bread is too die for.
My favorite place for an afternoon treat while sitting outside enjoying the sunshine.
Delicious coffee!! Small, cute little caffe..
Seems like this place is pretty authentic. Everyone is Italian and they speak Italian and I ordered the espresso avocado and the breakfast Panini and the bread was phenomenal. I asked the owner and he said he gets it made specifically for his place from an Italian bakery.
