Andrew StringfellowAugust 6, 2016Not a tea drinkers place. No decent options for hot black tea except 'specialist' Chinese ones, not even a first-cut Ceylon tip...
Look for Nicely whenever you're here, he'll take care of your caffeine need
Their banana and wheat germ muffin is the bomb. Perfect companion to their superb coffee.
Their cold-brewed coffee is an overlooked masterpiece.
Great place to people watch and hang with friends.
Ask for "Nicely" and a cappuccino. Prepare for some incredible latte art.
Try the mocha. The chocolate they put in it is really amazing.
Mindy JoyceMarch 19, 2011Get ready for a champagne coffee experience. The line is completely worth it
Laura Del GrecoJanuary 29, 2010smells like coffee heaven - which is good because you will need the patience of Job waiting in line ;-) It is fabulous though!
