My favourite coffee place. It smells great in there and there's fun people watching to be sure. My favourite drink is a half full Americano, 8oz. They roast the beans nearby!

All vegetarian, also great breakfast! Live music or poetry slams in the evenings, and their tortellini with roasted garlic cream sauce makes me die with happiness.

Tasty food and great drinks. Kind of pricey but worth it if you can sit on the patio and people watch. There is often great comedy or theatre in the back.
