Espresso 77

Thanks. We went to Espresso 77. They're serious about their coffee and they weren't too busy on a Thursday night. They let us hang out for a couple of hours. The staff and the other patrons all seemed friendly. REPLY (3 Replies) (by HJS1999, created February 18, 2011)

After 5 visits, three constants emerge in Espresso 77 experience:

(1) Terror of the tots: be prepared for kids running loose with out much parental concern for the drinks of yours they spill.

(2) 50% - 50% staff that's nice enough - staff that's down right rude.

(3) Expect to get up and down from jam packed ill-fitted tables and chairs which are squeezed into the very tiny customer floor...+READ After 5 visits, three constants emerge in Espresso 77 experience:

»If only

I wanted to like this place. The coffee was OK, the people were cheerful if unprofessional, & it wasn't Starbucks. I live in the neighborhood & kept coming back because it seemed like they were really trying.

I'd be back again, too, despite the warm (!) iced coffee I got tonight, but finding the barista's hair in it was just too much. Sorry. (by mshenna, created May 31, 2010)
