La Cabra Bakery

Ace Hotel is a great spot to relax after running errands. But I find it crowded and dark. I guess most people miss this adorable coffee establishment. Stumptown is connected to the Ace Hotel. However, the coffee is much better. Matcha lattes are surprisingly good. They also provide adorable totes and coffee cups for sale.

Hey friends! This review is about sustainability only. By 2050, we will have more plastic in the ocean than fish. While I so appreciate that your shop offers real reusable mugs, I was saddened to see how unclear that option is for customers who are enjoying their coffee in-house. I wonder if there are ways you can better communicate the availability of reusables to folks who are buying coffee to stay here. Maybe that means putting a sign at the cash register, or maybe that means incorporating an explicit ask from your baristas. But it feels such a shame to see all of these coffees getting enjoyed in-house, and then see these cups get discarded right into the trash after 30 minutes of use, to head straight to a landfill, the oceans, or incinerator, and ultimately as micro plastics in our bodies. The plastic waste crisis will need both the consumer and the provider to help lessen its impact. Thank you for considering my note and for empowering New Yorkers to be better to our local ecosystem and our global ecosystem. To those reading this: you can get a mug at the shop by explicitly asking for one.

One of the best lattes I've had; temperature, taste and texture perfectly balanced. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. If you buy any bean you get a drip coffee on the house, nice detail!
