Nice little place with a decent number of drink options, perfect for a quick stop next to the plaza. Nothing fancy, but convenient and gets the job done.
The area is nice. The coffee is good. Seating is good outside but a little odd on the inside. The food is good but sometimes is a little stale. The staff are hit or miss.

The low stars is for the atmosphere, Hunter Biden talks about why in his book. Additionally, a Google search of the terms, tow truck salcido ellen kamei sgt chris goff, shows hidden agenda of City leaders.
Actually a hidden find for a quiet place to work and have a cup of coffee. More food options than a typical coffee shop. Bit of a hidden gem.

after purchase, owner refuses to give receipt when asked. is that legal?
Ordered veggie panini and it was one of the worst I have had. Bread is also not good. And I paid like 15$ for this.

Came for a quick drink before a meeting, quick service and greeted by an amicable staff. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Ambiance was cozy and no loud music as some cafes have. Pastries for sale as well. I bought a chai tea latte, nothing special but was good, hit the spot. Clean, eatablishment.

During kid music weekend when there are kids everywhere and my toddler led me into this place wanting to explore. There are only 2 small groups of people at tables in the back. The entire store is empty, no one is browsing their products excepts us. And the guy behind the counter said no to my kid when he is interested on the stuff in the fridge. And he said we are blocking the way. Very rude and doesn’t match the family friendly environment this store resides.

Great coffee! Got an iced latte with almond milk & sugar free vanilla syrup. I gave the food 4 stars just because the croissants I got weren’t fresh, but they also weren’t bad!

Artichoke Quiche: taste was good, but food temperature was poor.
I liked that the artichoke hearts were finely chopped up (no chunks). That said, one side of the quiche was pipping hot, the other stone cold. They admitted to warming it up in a microwave; I observed their microwave ovens were very small, so most likely they did not have rotating trays to evenly distribute the heat.
Chicken and Mushroom Empanadas: these were thoroughly warm and moist inside. The crust was soft but added to the overall flavor.

Coffee and food was pricey but underwhelming.It wasnt as happening one afternoon i went. The interior design is really good but overall a dull place for the price they charge.

I really love the atmosphere of this place, located right in the performing arts building at the mountain view downtown, perfect for getting food during a performance or even just on a stroll. There are also so many options, not just sweet stuff, I recommend the beef empanadas (best I've had)!

The Asian staff at the counter didn't have the patience to listen and prepare a 5$ coffee around 12pm, though I was the only customer; When I said "it's too much of milk" , he said "it's 12 ounce milk" as answer and wasn't ready add a bit more coffee, so I dumped it in the trash can as he watched it and left the place. I did notice he was full of smiles when a "local lady" walked by the store; May be the race dictates who to listen/smile/kiss-a* there.
