ICI Macarons & Cafe

The coffee and pastries here are great. The two baristas were very helpful and they took pride in their coffees. There is only two tables, one inside and one outside. So if you’re looking for a place to get some computer work space is limited. Very nice place.

Kind and courteous employees. They let us use the restroom and gave us free water. I bought an iced tea and it was great as well. The place is clean and cozy. Not overcrowded and everything is decently priced. They even gave us directions. Would recommend!

I happened to be in Old City and was looking for a cafe open around 5pm. Most had already closed and ICI Macarons & Cafe was still open. While there I noticed the large display of macarons, but they also had pastries. More interested in the pastries I asked the barista about which pastries she recommended. She suggested the ABC if you like sweet croissants. It’s almond, banana chocolate croissant. In addition, to the pastry I ordered I got the passion fruit green tea. Both of the items I ordered were delicious. The passion fruit green tea balanced both flavors so neither was overpowering. My one gripe with the ABC was not warming it up. Other than that, the banana and chocolate worked really nicely. The almonds were there for texture and they didn’t add much flavor. I want to go back at an earlier time to try the rest of pastries.

Oh my, delicious French macaroons and the croissant muffins were superb too. Sells Vibrant Roaster coffee which is a great local roaster. People behind the counter were super helpful and friendly. One drawback there was no indoor seating, so if it’s not warm enough to sit at the outside tables, then you have to take it away and find some other place to sit and eat.

Omg! This place has the BEST chocolate croissants I have ever had! I love chocolate! In fact, I am a chocoholic, but I do believe chocolate has its place, and I usually don't care for mixing chocolate and regular bread products. However, the chocolate in these croissants was such good quality, and it blended perfectly with the type of croissant dough used. Also, the drinks here are outstanding! My husband ordered a cold coffee drink, and I ordered a black iced tea. Both were very good. It is just a tiny little store (right across the street from the Betsy Ross house), hardly noticeable but excellent! I highly recommend it!
