"What a gem! Perfect spot to catch up, unwind, and just vibe. The drinks? Delicious and easy on the wallet. I tried the chocolate chip waffle—so good! Ample seating options: couches, bar stools and tables, outdoor seating. Service was spot-on, super friendly and welcoming. Friendly crew, good energy all around. Street parking available. What an awesome way to kick off the week. I’ll definitely be back whenever I’m nearby!"

"Such a great find! Strong fresh iced coffee and was surprised to find GF treats! Not always easy to come by so if you’re looking for great coffee, this is a great spot. If you’re also looking for gluten free treats. This is a win!"

"Perfect ice black tea Everytime and my wife swears by the Carmel coconut latte (with almond milk) lol. Love it here. Order a cranberry bar tray before the holidays!"

"I love popping into Il Freno. Although I don’t drink coffee, it always smells great and they have a big selection of teapigs flavors for tea drinkers like me. I’m a little addicted to the matcha lavender latte. The staff is always friendly and the interior is inviting. Plus, there’s free wifi and they’re never rushing you to move along. This is the type of small business that I love seeing in the neighborhood."

"Cool coffe place! The desserts are very good too. And the view of park is great too."
