This café is in an old bank building that is very cool looking, cement and extremely high ceilings. My first time here was on a Saturday afternoon and it was great. I didn’t find a big table right away, but just took one of the smaller tables and soon enough someone left. There are a lot of people working and several also hanging out and talking.
There is an upstairs but at least that day the AC didn’t work upstairs so it was a little hot for me, but there were people up there. I assume for the majority of the year this is not an issue at all. The music was a nice volume and mostly jazz and non intrusive. The people working were nice and relaxed, good barista types. Over all this is a perfect place to work and worth the trip out here. This are is also very cool with a lot of little shops and such so you can walk around as well.
All in all great spot.
