I stopped at the Aperture Coffee Bar for the first time a few days ago, craving a Matcha Latte, and I immediately loved the place.
First, my Matcha was delicious and as slightly sweet as I like it. When my order was taken, I was asked if I wanted it sweetened or not, and having the option just made it even better. Then, I added a cookie to my order and was invited to pick it up from the self-serve jars at the counter.
The staff was friendly and the ambiance calm and relaxed. There is a good seating space and tables are a great size if you need to have a laptop and a few books to study or plan your day or maybe read the new book you got a few doors down from there. You can take your time and enjoy the place and its decor. It is simple, a little old-fashioned with a motorcycle by one one the walls, with lots of wood. Also, the menu is decently priced. I will return and update with more details when I try their sandwiches and bars!
