I loved the Oriental-themed coffee glasses, as well as the modern, yet still "chill" ambiance of the shop. I also liked how they had a window where you could see some of the employees making their pastries, as well as their many seating options. They had a coffee bar, a downstairs seating area, and an upstairs seating area. Their black coffee was really good, and finally, they made a really good latte! All-in-all, I really liked Methodical, will be back in the future, and would recommend it to anyone as a great coffee option!

I was working in my hotel room nearby and was grateful to find that you can order delivery right through the Yelp app! They have a nice selection of specialty lattes and breakfast items.

I got the build your own breakfast sandwich served on an asiago bagel with egg and cheese and cream cheese on the side. They had everything well packaged for delivery, which I appreciated.

I've been to this dessert bar twice now, once for my birthday and once for my son's birthday…read more The first time, it was just my husband and me. We sat at the bar and had a slice of cake, a chocolate shake, and a cocktail. It was such a great experience. Everything tasted amazing, and the cocktail was adorable. It even had Curious George's face on it, which made it feel extra fun and thoughtful. The second visit was for my son's birthday. The desserts were still absolutely delicious. The churro cake was insane in the best way. They truly know how to do desserts. My only downside the second time was the table. They have a thick, waxy film on them that feels dirty and sticky underneath. It honestly feels like they need to be scraped down and re finished because touching them is uncomfortable. It takes away a bit from what is otherwise such a great experience. The staff has always been friendly, and the cakes and desserts are consistently amazing. Because of the table issue, I'm giving 3 stars, but I'd happily give five if that detail was improved.
