This place is such a vibe! Step into old france and have a coffee! Its an old bank building with gargoyles drinking coffee above the windows. Service was friendly and quick. Food was pretty decent. My daughter's bagel and lox needed a little help but overall not a bad experience. I guess that's what you get for ordering a jewish item from a french coffee house lol.

This place is overall solid. I had the almond croissant, and it was amazing. The atmosphere was incredible. The music was especially nice, with classical pieces playing the whole time I was there. The service was good as well. I would definitely recommend it!

Absolutely beautiful building. The music was also some of the best I've heard in a coffee shop - mainly orchestral. However, the floors and bathroom are dirty, which is really unfortunate because the atmosphere itself is great. The chai tea was one of the worst I have ever had. Very watered down. The only reason I would go back is for the atmosphere.

When we arrived, the two men at the counter were counting their cash till. Neither spoke or acknowledged any of the customers. When they finished, one asked for our order. We ordered coffee and bagels. The bagel was very good. The atmosphere is really cool seeing the old architectural structure. Yet, it was filthy dirty. The furniture is authentic, I believe. If not, they need to spend a little cash to add new seating and hire a professional cleaner, and let's add some friendly workers that have customer service. Great concept, great atmosphere. Dirty and rude otherwise.

The girl working at this place threw the biggest fit ever when I didn’t tip her cause I was short on cash. She looked at me, made a weird sound, and proceeded to bang stuff around while making a coffee of mostly ice and barely any coffee. She also was murmuring rude things as if no one could hear her. When it was ready she screamed my name and slammed the coffee down on the counter, making it fly everywhere. She was then extremely rude to the person behind me as well. I used to like this place cause it’s by my house but I’ll never come back. Get some nicer workers.

I spent around 7000 hours here a decade ago, and it hasn't changed a bit and it makes me so happy.

You get 2 stars simply due to the fact that it's in an old bank. That to me, is all you have. I see that calling out how rude and unfriendly the baristas are is not an uncommon review here on Yelp. 2 seconds about me for frame of reference- I run a small coffee farm from Guatemala and typically enjoy Cortados. I am in no way a coffee snob and the only drink I have found remotely good at this establishment is their frozen coffee because it was recommended to me once. The first time I got it, it was great. Not too sweet and with actual espresso. The second time I went a few months later they said they couldn't made them (blender down maybe?). I respond with "awww bummer!!" Male barista responds in a very condescending manner "ohh yeah real bummer" and rolls his eyes. So I got a pastry instead and left. Yesterday was my third and last time I'll be in. I sent my wife in to grab us two of them as there was no parking but she didn't know exactly what they were called. She asked the (this time female) barista and she responds in once again a condescending manner "umm I don't really know, I don't drink those things" She makes them, fills half the cup up with frozen coffee and the other with whip cream (never asked for that). I get in the car, annoyed wife and half a drink once I removed the whip. Side note- this place uses styrofoam diner cups for practically all of the coffees you order (cold or hot). If this isn't a blaring "I should not buy coffee from this place" sign, I don't know what is.

By far my favorite coffee shop atmosphere - quiet with classy music in the background.

This was a little coffee shop near my Airbnb. I wanted a quick breakfast and came by here. I liked the interior design of this place and wanted to check it out. There were several people sitting down and working on their laptops. They played classical music which was relaxing. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and iced coffee. The sandwich was good. They did not have any ketchup or any other types of sauces available so that was disappointing. The coffee was served in a foam cup. Not that big of a deal but I didn't expect it. It did not taste the same as it would have in a plastic cup. I would come back here again if they had ketchup for my breakfast sandwich next time.

I love this place!! The atmosphere is great, and so is the coffee. I ordered an iced matcha the other day and it was perfect. I love coming here to get work done and relax.
