Duane ZoldakSeptember 4, 2013Excellent coffee and great atmosphere. Highly recommend the El Diablo if you like you caffeine on the bold side.- If you drink in, the barista ALWAYS gives you a nice coffee cup. Unlike that other coffee chain that is first to say "share the planet."
- If you have a latte, I recommend the 12oz rather than 16oz. Since their coffee is very freshly roasted and balanced in taste, the larger 16oz hides the espresso flavor unless U buy an additional shot.
- Have an espresso! It's very balanced in taste with a nice tart note saying "hello!" If you've had espresso from lesser places, they are typically bitter and unbalanced.
Kristin Streicher HoustonDecember 29, 2012Intelligentsia coffee and ghiradelli syrups. Cute atmosphere and free wifi. But this place is going to need to expand its menu if it wants to stick around.
SayNoMore .: :.March 20, 2016Terrible service. 25 minutes to get a sandwich prepared when place not full is a clear sign that something (bad) is going on. Don't go. Ps. - hardly unsalty eggs is a plus ( minus )
Rachel CAugust 1, 2013Refused use of our Amazon Local deal were told Amazon missed saying it wasn't valid on coffee beans.I proved it wasn't in small print. Manager said get credit from Amazon rather than honor the voucher
I used to like calibre but they jacked up prices and service is awful now.
