Next up is Sumeria Caffe Bar To Go, at 1329 Cook st (at Johnson). This is a tiny take-out coffee bar, and so will be judged according to retail standards (not restaurant).
Access: Fantastic -- Walk-up window style service means NO doors to wrestle with!
Food: My egg nog latte was delicious, though a bit sweeter than Starbuck's version.
Service: Excellent. I was having a rotten day, and the clerk was kind, sympathetic, and even gave me a chocolate. I don't know if the chocolate is, in fact, distributed with every coffee, but at that moment, a tasty token of kindness was exactly what my waning sanity needed. Thank you, Sumeria Caffe!
Cost: Not cheap, but egg nog lattes rarely are. It was a good size, and I paid about $4.50.
Baby-Friendliness: Good. Lovely staff, easy access, and plenty of little tables I could have easily pulled a stroller up to, if I'd wanted to stop for a moment.
Overall Grade: A
Delicious coffee (with great service) that does *not* require wrestling with doors? Sign me up!
Next up, more names to be added to the WALL OF SHAME. Who will it be? Stay tuned to find out!
