My friend and I stopped by after lunch this past Friday since Perk Coffee was conveniently a block away from where we were. There isn't a lot of seating, but we were able to find a table to enjoy a pastry and coffee while catching up. My friend got a chocolate croissant that he enjoyed. I got the HONEY ALMOND LATTE (hot) which was smooth and creamy, but I found it much too sweet. The nuttiness of the almond milk was enjoyable though.
