They serve coffee, lattes, cappuccinos, espressos, teas, sodas (imported ones, of course), and even beer. You can get a Pabst Blue Ribbon for next to nothing, as well as Anchor Steam. The prices are dirt-cheap, and I almost feel guilty for paying a mere $1.50 for a cafe americain that I pay over 2 bucks for at Starbucks. Not only are the beans not burned (as they are at Starbucks), but you don't have to stand in a crowd of tourists ordering their gallon-sized coffee/milkshake.

They offer a few sandwiches, ham-and-cheese and the like, but the real draw are the pastries. For less than 2 bucks you can buy a croissant delivered by one of the best bakers in the city. BALTHAZAR!!! Don't waste your time in the pretentious French bakery when you can eat them here at a reasonable price and with some friendly company from the diverse locals.

The decor is mostly 1960s, with funky, yet understated wallpaper, fake brass candles/lights on the wall, and a beautiful antique mirror on the wall. The bar is imported from Germany and the floors are secondhand floor planks that have been trodden upon for many, many years. I love that this cafe is tiny and cozy and allows you the comforts of home (there are books on the wall for you to read) with the luxuries of a French bakery.

You won't be disappointed with this little to-go shop with the aspirations of a sit-down cafe.
