coffee is great but like others have mentioned the baristas can be bit entitled and rude. not…read moreeveryone but specifically the blonde one who's a bit younger was especially curt. i had gotten a bag of beans and the guy at the register was pleasant and nice and said that i can get a cup of brewed coffee for free for the bag of beans. since i didn't need more coffee as i was already having a capp - i asked if i could get it next time and the girl behind him answered for me and was like - no it's just for now - she was visibly annoyed and just rude. i saw her being rude to another patron while i was there. a woman simply asked for water with matcha. just give it to her. don't give her bs that it won't work because of the concentrations. maybe just explain it will not taste like plain matcha with water? elaborate instead of being curt and annoyed. if you are working in service, this is your job and you are being paid. people being served does not have to be served your attitude as well. we aren't paying for that. appreciate the gentleman up front who was nice. still rating them high bc i don't want to crap on a business but plz just be kind they play decent music and their cappuccinos are yum and they get their pastries from petit chou which is pretty yummy. double chocolate was a bit much but it was still good!

The coffee was okay, but nothing special. Unfortunately, the customer service was terrible. We…read morepurchased coffee there, but I was finishing an ice cream from Ben & Jerry's (they also sell coffee). We were told it was "company policy" that I couldn't sit at a two-person table because I had outside food--even though we had bought a drink from the café, no one was waiting for a table, and there was also an empty table. The policy itself is one thing, but the way it was enforced was unnecessary and unfriendly. The staff came across as rude, and the entire experience left a bad impression. Based on the poor customer service, I won't be returning.

My daughter brought me a Dobos Torta from here for my Birthday. It was delicious! Even though I…read moredon't think they are still Hungarian owned, they do a decent job in maintaining the Hungarian recipes. It is also located across from St John's the Devine so you can't go wrong with grabbing a coffee and a cake and sitting outside the cafe. Fun cafe ambiance.

There was a line but the staff moves so efficient it was just a short wait and well worth it. The pastries were a mix of sweet and savory. I was surprised to taste the quality of food was not diminished from the speed of service. Cheese danish was my favorite. Light and very warm.

There's maybe 3 tables for 2 people each, and a small bar seating area for about 4 people. Not good for more than about 12 people to hang out in total. The staff is pretty fast and the kiosks make things run quicker too. Downside is that they do charge $.25 for a cup of water. I don't really like their signature milk tea, but their grape slush is pretty good. Everything is about $7-10, so expect to pay a bit more for your drinks.
