Specialty cafes draw the curious, and this one is no exception. Look for precise shots, filter brews made to order, and a short menu that changes with what the roaster has on hand. The details matter to the people behind the bar, from grind to water to timing. If you are building your palate, it is the sort of place where asking questions tends to pay off.
