Capisce Coffee & Espresso Bar
5659 Cascade Rd, Lake Placid, NY
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Lake Placid, this Italian-inspired café radiates genuine charm with a thoughtfully curated space and an owner who clearly cares about every detail. They're doing creative things with espresso-focused drinks—think latte flights served in full-sized glasses using quality La Colombe beans—while their cinnamon rolls and pastries arrive perfectly warmed and bursting with flavor, making it the kind of place locals return to again and again.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
