I had an amazing experience at Sierra Café on Albert Street! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff led by Ming and Angela were friendly and attentive, creating a relaxed and enjoyable vibe. The coffee is absolutely top-notch—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed every time. Whether you're a fan of classic espresso drinks or prefer something a bit more adventurous, they’ve got you covered. I also tried one of their pastries, and it was fresh and delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness. The café itself is cozy and stylish, making it a great spot for catching up with friends, enjoying some quiet time with a good book, or even getting some work done. The free Wi-Fi and comfortable seating are definite pluses. Overall, Sierra Café on Albert Street delivers excellent coffee, great service, and a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend this spot to anyone in the area!
