August First

Everything good — the pastries, the drinks. The spacious industrial setting (a former garage beautifully renovated) with cozy details like a well stocked bookshelf and wooden furniture is really welcoming. Rays of sun coming through the tall windows made the place even prettier.Being incredibly busy when we got there made us almost leave at once, guessing it impossible to find a table for three — but their laptop free policy actually helps with the turnover, and lends the café a different atmosphere, since people actually glance at one another instead of their screens, and converse. All seemed lovingly convivial.What still strikes me most as a memory is the hard working staff, that looked tired but kept on with the efficient service — and catching a glimpse of one of the cooks, sweating and disheveled, made me even more grateful for the food I ate (here and everywhere else, for that matter).Keep up with the good work, you have a wonderful place there!

Was asked by the staff to put away my laptop while eating my lunch! Apparently they don't allow laptops. Had only been there five minutes and was still eating. Wonder if one is allowed to read a book, or if they don't like people visiting solo? Go figure. Also, no wifi.

The "A Laptop Free Establishment" is an elitist, hippie, ridiculous, out-of-date and snobby policy. Imagine how much longer people would sit and consume if they weren't shamed for being technologically engaged, and instead forced to eat and rush out! Aside from that silly sign, which we simply ignored, they have great bread and sandwiches! Cookies for dessert are a must...
