I’m such a sucker for delicious coffee paired with adorably decadent desserts. If you think that’s also an accurate description for yourself, then Pokka Café is for you. This is my second time at this location and it did not disappoint. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Orders are accurate and they do a good job of communicating how long it will take. Coffee is expensive but it’s wonderfully pressed to a nice concentration. Add a little cream and a touch of sugar and you’ve got a little cup of heaven in an adorable teacup. Our party of 9 split several snacks, both savory and sweet. A serving of chicken wings, noodle soup, beef wellington, and tiramisu toast. Be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes for the toast as it is made to order, but it’s worth the wait and timed perfectly for a sweet ending to everything else. The toast was hot out of the oven and paired wonderfully with vanilla ice cream, custard, and a generous dusting of cocoa powder.
