Croissant
A diamond in the rough, I walked across the bridge to seek this gem. I'd only heard of the cafe, so on a lazy Sat afternoon, I managed to catch a mild day for a walk and found it.
It's as if you went over your favorite Auntie's house, and they happened to also be a retired professor. That faint smell of used books and strong coffee permeates the air.
Though compact, the space is larger than it seems. And while I enjoyed the atmosphere, I would not recommend wanting to stay and carry on too deep of a conversation. Once several voices get going, it can be difficult to pay attention to the conversation you're supposed to be focusing on!😅
All in all, it was well worth the walk. And the service of the baristas was top notch. I just listened to them take an order and give a suggestion to someone, and I wanted to tip them! Good people, a great spot. You'll feel right at home.

Drip Coffee
The first time I stepped into this bookstore, I was immediately greeted at the front door where they were serving coffee and tea. I was impressed by the open spaces and the spacious rooms with desks for reading and writing. Each desk comes equipped with plugs for your laptop, if needed.
I would highly suggest going on a Saturday morning when it's calm and there are a lot of spaces available.
Enjoy!

This is a carefully curated progressive bookstore that sells full price books. If that interests you, you'll really enjoy it! The coffee and homemade treats are tasty.
