    the best espresso in the west village. Baristas are all eperienced and can make a real cappuccino and a macchiato with a nice touch for presentation.

    Third rail prepares cortados that are more on the side of a macchiato. So much so you may consider a cap instead.

    Not a fan. Ordered cortado. Great foam, but espresso was sweet and sour, instead of caramel and chocolates.

    Oaxaca is divine. But had to share space w/ a golden retriever, which is very organic but not what I want in a coffee place.
