"Small spot with racing decor and photography memorabilia. Seating and pastry selection are very limited, but what they had was pretty nice. They do not do any drip coffee but have very reasonable and very good pour overs. Worth swinging by if you're in Bridgeport."

"A chill spot for a catch up with a friend. Better suited for a cafe study session than an elongated hang. The Pan Ube was flavorful. The cortado was solid. The matcha ube was earthy and not sweet. CTRL Z is chill respite from the snow."

"this place has been my go-to spot for the last 6 months anytime I am in the neighborhood, which says a lot because I don't stay loyal to mediocre coffee. The coffee is consistently excellent - smooth, balanced, and clearly made with intention. The space is genuinely cozy (not fake-cozy), and it's the kind of place where you sit down "for a minute" and accidentally stay way longer. Their creative drinks like Spanish and pandan lattes are fun and actually good - no gimmicks. Great coffee, great vibe, zero attitude. Bridgeport gem."

"So happy to have this amazing cafe close by! Amazing cappuccinos and VERY reasonable prices. A balanced flavor between steamed milk & espresso. I have been here twice in one week 🤩 I tried their initial Mano Cafe and saw it's owned by the same people in an article from the Block Club. It definitely gave me the push to try it! A note on the price, $4 for a third wave coffee cappuccino is a STEAL! I would much rather have these low prices and no "rewards" I need to keep track of."

"Awesome little shop in Bridgeport. It's very quiet, cozy and peaceful. From the zen sand garden to the little newspapers they have around, everything just (quietly) screams of home. I had a caramel latte and not only was it tasty, it also looked very appealing. I'll definitely be back"
