Head barista, Leo is the brazilian barista champion. He can make a great latte, but he seems to be more interested in cupping now.

this is not a brazilian place whatsoever. One of the partners,Fernando, that claims to be brazilian, is in fact argentinian. the other 2 capital partners are americans. they only use some brazilian names and products to sound cool and sell overpriced stuff. dont buy their crap! The brigadeiro, although made by a brazilian woman ( brigadeiro bakery) is not good. It is too buttery! they make like this to try to be more american taste friendly. You can have better in brazil. If they sold like this in Brazil, the company would not last! believe me... Now, the dark side: The mini cakes, scones and cookies are frosted at night and defrosted in the morning. So, you are really eating a product that is not fresh. Did you ever get yours a little on the cold side? thats why... When you get the kale and the turkey sandwich without the crost, it is because it is a left over from the other night. they cut the crost because in the morning it gets hard and for you to not notice the poor quality they take the crost off!

This wonderful little cafe feels like a community hub. The coffee is good and strong, the people are very friendly and multi-cultural and their motto of sustainability is everywhere from 100% compostable to go containers, recycled materials used in making the furniture and the walls to the energy efficient coffee machine and kitchen tools. One of the owners Fernando, has a smile for everyone and you will often see him in the cafe conversing with the locals. The frittata is very tasty..and the fun brazilian treats are hard to pronounce but fun to discover.
