I would never discovered this gem without guidance from Yelpers. This place becomes my new favorite in the area. They serves great drinks, delicious pastries and snacks. Service was excellent. The servers provided great advice on drinks and pastries options. Free WiFi was available. What I love? 1) The meat quiche is amazing. Highly recommended! 2) The tea options are limited but all delicious. You get to choose your mug size at the same price. 3) I tried the strawberry matcha drink. The servers made it fresh on the spot. It's delicious. I can't wait to come back

The biggest standout here is definitely the space. It's set inside a beautifully restored old…read morepolice station, and the design is honestly one of the most unique café environments in the city. The old jail cells turned into seating areas are super cool and give it a vibe you don't really get anywhere else. Coffee was not bad. Not overly experimental, but definitely reliable and enjoyable. I've been to a lot of cafés where the atmosphere outshines the drinks, and this is kind of that situation, but the quality still holds up well enough that you're not just coming here for the aesthetic. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the overall vibe is relaxed but still lively. It's a great place to work, read, or just hang out for a while. They also allow dogs! Compared to other spots I've been to, Antagonist really wins on character and atmosphere. It doesn't quite reach "destination coffee" level in terms of complexity or standout drinks, but it absolutely delivers a memorable experience. The cafe itself does not have any food other than pastries but it's connected to a board game cafe so if you want to get a quick bite, it's right next door!

Always recommend.
