I have wanted to try the coffee at Snow Pony for quite some time. It gets quite high praise for its hot drinks and pastries so I thought I would stop by for a quick morning coffee.
So, it was OK I guess, not amazing.
First,
the coffee. There isn't a photo because it wasn't worth it - there was
no crema and so it just looked like a black puddle. Crema is one of my
favourite parts of the coffee experience, and a long black without any
suggests that the crew manning the coffee machine was just too
overworked. Not to mention it took ages to arrive, although I guess the
place was pretty full.The flavour was up there though, so I would
definitely like to check it out again sometime.
Or
at least I would have, but for the pastry. So, I get that in cafe math,
a pastry is automatically $4.50+. That's fine. It should cost more than
my coffee. However, when it is the size of a postage stamp and tastes
like... nothing, that's just criminal.
Anyway, if I happen to be passing by I might stop for another coffee. Otherwise, no dice.
