COMMENTS
Nice place. Good atmosphere, have spent a few afternoons here with a latte and a book. Baristas are pretty good, but I am still undecided on whether or not I like how they do mochas (put cocoa powder in the milk prior to steaming). The last latte I got here was a 8.5 on a scale to ten, and that was in a to-go paper cup (you can only get to 9 and higher with a real mug). As this is a local roaster, they roast their own beans, and do a mighty fine job doing it. One of my sources for home–use beans—especially in last–minute emergencies as they are close to home.
