What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"A very charming and authentic spot! Delicious coffee, fresh bagels with a variety of fillings to suit every taste. Art on the walls, rainbow-colored chairs, and neatly packed teas and coffees in different blends — everything adds to the cozy vibe. There’s even a comfy sofa for friends to gather. Such a lovely place!"
"I am a coffee roaster that works with farms in south east asia for speciality coffee .. Finding a coffee shop that matches your critical flavor taste is difficult if not impossible as everyone has different likes .. Perkolator however matches my tastes very well. They roast beans and also work direct with coffee farms. They have the very unique ability to extract the complete flavors from their coffee's. If you drink an espresso you can expect a comprehensive flavor profile in each drink .. Bravo Perkolator !!"
"Odd thing to say at a coffee shop, but my mom and I fell in love with the plants--especially the Mistletoe Cactus. Any idea where I can find it? Anyway, the vibe was very retro and refreshing. My mom and I ordered Americanos (my mom ordered a decaf with a hint of half and half), and they were good. I would've liked for it to have been stronger..Nonetheless, a great experience! I was worried about parking, but we came early enough to snatch a free spot on the side street :)"
"Such a cute cafe! Really nice atmosphere and delicious food! The staff were also very welcoming. I got one of their summer specials the Goat, and a matcha latte."
"Very cute neighborhood coffee shop! Great atmosphere and unique flavors. We were there on a Sunday about 11. Line was to the door and pastries were running low. They said that the food wait would be 45 minutes but it was only about 15. Tables were full so we sat outside - nice bench set-up. Mochas were yum, food was okay. I got a chorizo egg and cheese sandwich which was more of a sub and heavy on the chorizo. Bagel sandwich was good. I will try the burrito next time. The almond croissant was the best of my life."
"Loooooooove this neighborhood gem! I don't go as much as I would like but whenever I stop in it's like a hug. Everyone's friendly, the food and drinks are..."
