This cafe is not like others. It’s basically a small roastery and espresso bar, run by world champion barista and World Cup taster champion Tim Wendelboe. Their goal is to be among the best in the world, so of course we had to stop and confirm that their coffee is indeed something to write home about! The minimalist interior highlights the coffee itself, so enjoy finely brewed espressos, pour-overs, and cold brews to the fullest!
