Cafetería La Esquina Sopo Reviews
This coffee shop is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly friendly and always go the extra mile to make you feel at home. The interior is so cute and cozy, it’s the perfect place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. The comfy seating and charming decor create such a pleasant environment. And of course, the coffee is fantastic! They have a great selection of drinks and treats, all made with high-quality ingredients. This is definitely my favorite coffee shop in town, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful experience.
First found this place on uber eats and I’ve ordered plenty of different teas, now I decided to come in person and it’s Nice! Calm place and nice to bring your laptop and enjoy food. It got pricey when I decided to treat myself but overall reasonable. All of the food I’ve had is good and fresh.
Ateaz is a great spot that has quickly become a favorite for me. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a relaxed vibe perfect for hanging out or studying.The food menu is equally appealing, with light bites and pastries that complement the drinks well. The staff are super friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant experience. If you're looking for a cozy place to unwind or a quick stop for a delicious drink, Ateaz is the combination of quality beverages, tasty snacks, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit.
This has become my favorite place to take a break. The coffee is fantastic with a beautiful presentation. The staff is super sweet and gentle. This one is tough to write because I don’t want to give up my best kept secret spot. Well deserved and good fortune to this top notch establishment. Hats off to you.
It was my first time there and it was great! I ordered the chicken panini with air fries and they didn't fail me. The customer service was 10/10 and my order took 5 minutes, the food arrived hot, fresh and tasty. They have a wide variety of savory and sweet dishes on the menu suitable for various types of people, phenomenal! I'll be back soon😊
It’s a good place but they don’t keep their heater on in the winter time. Had to wear a full north face jacket inside and my hands were cold. Literally left early and asked other people. They were literally leaving because they were too cold. This happened every time I go there in the winter. It’s cold. I want to go there now but am not going because they are not going to have proper heating. This may be more of a summer/spring/fall type place. I’m probably not going to go again until the spring.
Walking in to this cafe, I had high expectations based on the reviews. My matcha latte was excellent - not too sweet - but the rest of the experience was underwhelming. I ordered the Veggie Mediterranean Sandwich ($16.25) which I felt was a bit expensive for a sandwich and fries but hoped the price reflected a quality sandwich. Unfortunately it did not. The sandwich is listed as being served on sourdough, which it definitely was not - could have been a slice of white bread from the grocery store next door for all I know. The sandwich was fairly tasty, but lacked any substance. The fries were pretty good. Though the food was somewhat tasty, I feel like I paid $16+ for a pile of carbs.
The place is very nice and people are nice but the cake slice was not it. It taste old and the frosting is crusty. For $9 a slice I expected better.
Very cute cafe! The decor was friendly and inviting which was nice. There was plenty of different food options if you are in the mood for a quick bite such a croissant or something like a salad or sandwhich. I got a croissant, a vegan oatmeal raisin cookie, and a matcha latte with oatmilk. It was all delicious. The price was about $14.00 which is a little pricey. However my partner got a coffee which he said was also delicious.
Coffee is tasty, they have cakes, gelato, a two dozens variety of teas. Looks like a good neighborhood cafe, with couches and communal high tables for workgroups. Would have given it 4 stars if the restroom is not pungently stinky, the dining area can be a bit duty as well but serviceable if you are not too picky.
The food is overpriced for its quality. The “baristas” do not know how to make a proper latte and do not honor requests (ex. Extra ice, less milk). I was also surprised to find out that this business has reward points and the employees do not mention it to their customers. Such an overpriced place and they can’t even tell their customers about their reward points….
Why accept Uber Eats orders after 6 pm if you’re going to close early. If you close at 7, that’s more than enough time to make a freakin sandwich and soup and include a cookie! Def lost a customer.
This cafe is among the nastiest I've ever eaten at. The owner is very cheap to the point he doesn't even pay to fix an obvious roach infestation. This roach crawled across my table WHILE I WAS EATING! Then fell to the floor before I recorded this video! Truly disgusting! I feel sorry for the workers there, they have a boss that only cares about his pockets over the customer's experience or health. No wonder they all leave!
