The menu usually stretches past coffee into tea, a few pastries, and whatever the kitchen feels like putting out. The pace is unhurried, the welcome is genuine, and the coffee does its job without making a fuss. Expect the easy, unforced character of an independent spot: coffee made without ceremony and a room that fills with regulars.
