To store owner/manager:
Please teach your baristas to pull a normale espresso shot. I was told they can only pull ristretto or lungo.

Friendly, warm, kind staff. Wonderful hot beverage suggestion to get me through the day. Beautiful "latte" artist (not just a barista)!

막사는거야??

The atmosphere was good. The soy latte felt bland, but it probably wasn't the original taste...

A cosy spot in downtown Kingston!
Very bright & lots of spots to sit & people watch
A bit on the pricey side for an Americano, hot chocolate, muffin & scone
Scone & muffin were dry & not very flavourful
Great service!

We had a great breakfast. Their London fog is an alternative to tea to try. Both the cookie (with ginger), the muffin (carrot and coconut) and the cake (with peanut butter) are delicious. Nice and kind staff.

I ordered Balzac’s for breakfast with a few friends. The almond croissant was delicious, and huge!!! My latte was ok, probably would’ve been better in-person, since after transport it didn’t taste as fresh and wasn’t super warm. All in all, Balzac’s is definitely a great breakfast option, but for the price I would recommend eating in-person rather than getting delivery :)

Their coffee is good, on a good spot too with a cool ambience. But today I was told I can’t get a latte because they’re about to close, I check the time and it’s 5:40 and they close at 6pm: I was offered a tea instead which I declined of course. I really needed a coffee not a tea and takes less than 10’ to make one.

Price very reasonable, compared to surrounding competition. Felt very comfortable. Best London fog I have had to date.
