Love love LOVE this place!! Super cute on the inside and the outside! Love the Italian pride we got going on!! The owner is extremely personable and very friendly! The coffee is always great!! 110% recommend!
I only ordered an ice coffee so I cannot rate the food. I stopped by after searching for a cafe near me. I am visiting from Japan so I was not familiar with the area. I am so glad I chose this one. When I walked in, Chris introduced herself. She's the owner and asked if I ever been to Luigi's. Since this was my first visit we started a conversation. Well after I was done drinking my coffee and reading my book I probably stayed on for another 45 minutes just having a wonderful conversation with Chris. I did not take any pictures because the pictures would not do justice to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. I will be in town for the next 10 days or so and I look forward to returning in that time. If you're looking for some really really friendly people I would highly recommend this place. And the coffee was perfect.
A super cozy café with a lovely Italian vibe. The place is very cute and feels like a little hidden gem to relax and enjoy. The barista was extremely kind, always smiling and very attentive. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, from the coffee to the desserts. Definitely a place I want to come back to many more times. Highly recommended!
One word comes to mind…BELLISSIMO! What a fantastic Italian cafe. The interior is charming and has a warm cozy intimate feel. They serve a variety of sweet treats, coffees, teas and lattes that are all made with love. Jessica was an absolute gem and an excellent Barista. She is definitely very knowledgeable and takes pride in what she does. Thank you for the lovely conversation. I had the Cappuccino and Tiramisu Latte. There is no exaggeration when I say that both of my drinks were absolutely delicious especially the Tiramisu Latte! The froth on the Cappuccino was amazing. I am now addicted and looking forward to coming back for more. My partner had the Dirty Chai and enjoyed it. They have outdoor seating too.
We tried this place for the first time and really enjoyed it! The lemon latte blew me away - I thought it would be weird, but it really worked! Everyone enjoyed their coffee, and the cardamom pistachio scone was delightful. The barista was very nice and it was a cute little restaurant, though small. They have outdoor tables too!
