Description
The space keeps a nod to its heritage by still selling orchids alongside the drinks. The room accommodates quiet reading and low-key conversations, though remote workers should note that the venue manages tables with timed Wi-Fi provided in two-hour increments. Behind the counter, they prep hazelnut mochas, scones, and creamy iced dirty chais, though opinions on the coffee quality are mixed, ranging from great to just okay.
