Super nice service, tasty coffee and a cute array of pastries and desserts. The outdoor space is really nice for working and chatting

I ordered an Americano at Spruce Caffè & Patisserie, but what I got was just a regular black coffee — and not even hot, just lukewarm pre-prepared coffee. When I asked them to make me a proper Americano (which is simply espresso with hot water), they refused unless I paid again.

This makes no sense. Either they don’t know how to make a real Americano, their machine wasn’t working, or there was a miscommunication in their staff. But as a customer, it should be corrected without being charged twice.

It’s not difficult to remake an Americano properly, yet they chose not to. That’s just poor service. When you order an Americano, you expect an Americano — not pre-brewed warm coffee passed off as one.

Really disappointing experience. Worst customer service I’ve had in a coffee shop.

Looks good on photos, but mediocre overall. Hazelnut cake was OK, but not very fresh. My order was forgotten, and done after I asked without any word or apology. Presentation wasn't great either.

Cute cafe. However WiFi is bit flaky at least indoors, so be prepared to hotspot!

I went here yesterday and ordered a iced brown sugar cinnamon latte and was asked what milk and I said regular milk I’m not sure what happened if the wrong milk was used and I’m sure this was a mistake because I am allergic to soy, oat, and almond milk but I had an instant allergic reaction from this drink and it made me very sick puking etc for the rest of the day I’ve been a regular customer here but not trying to blame the baristas entirely but just wanna bring attention to what happened.

OMG these are the cutest! My favorite is the Mango passion fruit eclair, one time I got it with the filling still frozen inside and it’s seriously even better 😆 I wish we can have that option haha! Anyway best wishes and thanks for the pleasant experience as usual.

This place is so cute and delicious at the same time I almost didn’t want to share a review so I can keep it a secret for locals 😭 definitely must try the vanilla crema iced cold brew with both a sweet and a savory treat from the bakery !
