Crema's Take
“Canard Café Bar has decent pastries and a genuinely pleasant space that works well for lingering with a laptop, but the coffee itself is a real weak point—multiple reviewers report consistently bitter, poorly-steamed milk drinks, and the kitchen seems more invested in food than espresso fundamentals. If you're coming for strong coffee and skilled barista work, you'll leave disappointed; if you just want a comfortable spot with okay food and good vibes, it's passable but not special enough to make the trip.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

It’s a spacious cafe with pretty ambience. The Cinnamon Roll was small and pricey. It is good, but it reminds me exactly of the cinnamon rolls they sell at Morton Williams SuperMarket which is admittedly cheaper. Their pastry selection was lacking for me, but I might have to…
