Opening in Nov. 2009, this tiny breakfast and lunch eatery is owned and operated by Ammy Cope & Tom Sheehy, who are major food enthusiasts. They have a few tables and benches under a small, covered patio, and they specialize in fresh baked goods and good coffee from Deluxe Coffeeworks. Using a stainless two-group WEGA, they pull shots with a medium and darker brown spotted crema. The crema may be thin in thickness, but it is visually rich. The resulting cup may run a bit thinner on body, but it has a flavor profile that's smooth, earthy, and more body-forward. Their milk frothing can also be rather impressive, as they blend the microfoam well with the espresso crema - often producing latte art. Lately, they've raised their game on occasion with their flat whites - namely better milk frothing and more consistent latte art - throwing down a challenge to the neighbors on good days. But this improvement hasn't been consistent. Served in delicate Crown Professional porcelain cups. R12 for singles, R14 for doubles, R15 for a flat white.
