La Clochette

😐 Place was fairly busy when we ordered after waiting in line for about 10 min, not bad. My wife ordered a cafe au lait with an almond croissant and I had a hot chocolate with a croque madame.

👍👍 My brother and I visited this cafe on a Saturday. We had the acai bowl. I had the nut flavored bowl which was actually very rich. It had peanut butter, granola, and honey. I couldn't finish it all, it was too rich. My brother had one with banana and berries, granola. It was very good as well.

👍 I had one of the best espresso tonics I’ve ever tried there but also top down the worst when I went another time.
