Run by the brother of the North Point Center café of the same name (and that's where the similarities end). Sandwiches, salad bar, and several small indoor tables. With doors that open outdoors to sidewalk café table seating beneath the building's shadowy brick arches. Espresso is served with a ring of light brown crema with large bubbles. Stronger and with more body than drip coffee, but not by much (appropriate, given the café's Folgers Coffee Building location). With a mildly spiced, wood-like drip flavor, but with some milk chocolate tones and other tastes to give it some complexity.
