Atmosphere:
Chill
and
Third
Wave
coffee
atmosphere--without
being
pretentious
or
snobby.
Ample
indoor
and
outdoor
seating,
clean
and
minimalist.
Decent
playlist
of
retro
and
indie
music.
Edit
18.09.21:
no
more
music
strangely.
Coffee:
Fantastic.
Clearly
the
roasts
are
fresh
(no
more
than
a
couple
weeks)
as
some
of
the
fruitier
notes
and
volatiles
that
normally
breakdown
and
disappear
as
a
result
of
oxidation
are
present
and
delicious
from
the
delicate
to
the
pungent.
I
ordered
the
Flat
White,
then
I
ordered
another
Flat
White
lolz.
Food:
The
proper
kitchen
is
open
on
Saturdays
&
Sundays
only--but
oh
is
it
worth
it!
The
eggs
benedict
were
perfect
in
taste,
texture,
and
portion
size.
It
left
me
lipsmacked
and
satiated,
but
not
overly
full
and
slow.
The
toast
was
the
perfect
balance
of
toastiness
and
breadiness
so
it
held
up
to
the
fork
and
knife
abuse
and
egg
yoke,
but
was
still
spongy
enough
to
absorb
said
egg
yoke.
Hollandaise
sauce
wasn't
overpowering,
but
rather
just
delicately
complemented
the
meal.
Three
strips
of
bacon
balances
the
richness
with
salty
savory
goodness
that
ensures
you
forgot
how
much
beer
or
booze
you
had
the
night
before.
The
perfect
brunch.
Edit
18.9.21:
they've
swapped
out
the
bread/brot
used
in
the
eggs
benedict
making
it
a
chore
to
eat
(sometime
in
July
or
August).
It's
not
nearly
as
good
as
it
used
to
be
on
these
last
few
visits.
It's
a
hard
crostini
or
bruschetta
bread
that
really
begs
for
a
steak
knife
to
cut
through
as
the
provided
butter
knife
struggles
to
get
through
the
tough/hard
crust
and
bread
alike.
The
bread
no
longer
absorbs
the
hollandaise
or
yoke
like
the
previous
bread
did,
so
you
end
up
sopping
the
sauce
and
yoke
with
the
bacon
strips
if
you
ordered
bacon.
Unfortunately,
I
can
no
longer
recommend
the
eggs
benedict
here
on
the
list
of
items
for
brunch.
The
food
is
still
prepared
with
care,
and
the
flavors
are
still
pretty
great.
But
brunch
should
be
relaxing
and
not
a
chore
or
challenge
unless
you're
into
that
kind
of
thing.
Productivity:
Ample
indoor
and
outdoor
seating
with
free
wifi.
Other
notes:
it's
a
popular
spot
on
weekends,
so
be
prepared
to
wait
up
to
15
minutes
for
a
table
(without
question,
it
is
worth
the
wait!)
Also,
they
accept
debit
cards
here
which
is
refreshing
in
Berlin
where
most
places
are
cash-only.
