Louisa's Café & Bakery
This is pretty much your average neighborhood café breakfast joint. There's a decent selection of pastries, sandwiches, and other small breakfast and lunch dishes, hot and cold. Coffee, tea, smoothies and juices are available as well. The place is modest, but there's a good amount of varied seating. The staff are a motley bunch of pierced and dreaded young guys, apparently well-directed by a short, gray-haired lady with a kind, but no-nonsense demeanor. The service is friendly and for the most part, so are the patrons. It's unlikely you'll see anyone cursing at their children, yelling on the phone to their spouse or violently picking the onions out of their omelette. That is, cares and worries are left aside, to be replaced by the enjoyment of broccoli and cheese crossaints, cappuccinos and poetry-writing on laptops. I almost want to use the word "quaint".
