Crema's Take

“May Day Cafe strikes that delicate balance between a quick espresso stop and a lingering neighborhood hangout, where the coffee is taken seriously but the vibe stays approachable. The freshly baked pastries and quiches earn genuine devotion from regulars, though the kitchen seems to be in flux—a beloved spot that's in transition but still worth seeking out for its warm staff and thoughtfully sourced offerings that leave Starbucks in the dust. With limited seating that fills up fast, it's the kind of place where you'll rub elbows with other coffee lovers and leave feeling like you've discovered something real rather than just grabbed a drink.”

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Food was alright. The Bacon and Swiss quiche was relatively good. Didn’t really like how they didn’t tell me that it came with a salad, which I don’t like. Atmosphere is also pretty nice. Liked the paintings they had in there. Relatively convenient as it’s right along the route…

Beats Starbucks by a huge mile. It's not just the coffee that is good and reasonably priced, but the food is also quite excellent. The croissants are freshly baked, some of the best I've had in the US. Also tried the pesto pizza with goat cheese, and it did not disappoint.
