Delicious Latte and Great Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was very positive. I had a delicious latte that was bold and creamy, with good staying power throughout the drinking experience. The place has more seating inside than you would expect.
I really enjoyed this place and would certainly return! I recommend giving them a try!

Hair in bread, but fresh!
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. I found a hair baked into the bread of my sandwich, which was quite unpleasant. However, on a positive note, this experience made me realize that the bread is freshly made.

Incredible Coffee and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the Aztec mocha, and the coffee was delightfully dark with notes of malt. The spice and chocolate levels were perfectly matched to the bean.
The service was incredible; the barista chatted with me while making my coffee, making me feel super welcome. I highly recommend stopping by for a coffee, as the barista definitely knows their coffee.

Fantastic Service and Great Sandwiches!
I visit Fonte weekly, and Steve is absolutely fantastic! He recognizes my order the moment I walk in and is incredibly kind. The coffee is great, and I highly recommend their sandwiches.

Consistent Coffee and Great Company
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently positive for the past two years, as I've been coming here every day. I love the coffee and the people! The food is rated a 5, the service is a 5, and the atmosphere is a 5.
I particularly enjoyed the Regular Milk.

Friendly Service, Average Food, Horrible Matcha
My experience at the restaurant was a mixed bag. The friendly barista was definitely a highlight, making the service a positive aspect. However, the food was just average, and the matcha was horrible, which was a significant low point.
Overall, the service was good, but the food and drink quality were disappointing.

Joyful Mornings with Great Coffee & Sandwiches
My experience at Fonte was a true joy, largely thanks to Steve, who made me pick Fonte for my morning coffee every day during my trip. The coffee is great, and the sausage sandwich is HUGE and tasty! I highly recommend this place.

Daily Delightful Pastries and Service
As a regular visitor, my experience at this restaurant has become a daily routine. I coach at the gym next door, and I come here pretty much as my daily routine. All their pastries are made in-house, and the service is always delightful.
Steve is a standout, and I always love to have a small chat with him. He let me know more about the pastries which I’m always scarfing down. Recommend!

Great Service, Disappointing Coffee
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. While I hated the coffee, I might go back because of the exceptional morning-shift barista. He was another-level nice, engaging in a conversation and even gifting me a bag of beans as a welcome to the area, which absolutely made my day!
❤️ Regarding the coffee, I ordered a cappuccino and didn't like the taste of the beans, so I won't be ordering coffee again. On the positive side, there was plenty of sitting place, which was nice. I could grab a tall table and work for a couple of hours.
The WiFi didn’t connect successfully, but I didn’t bother to ask for assistance. I believe they have good food because people seemed to go there for it, and everything smelled super good. I appreciate kindness and empathy; it makes me feel human again.
We need more of it.
