Stopped here at the recommendation of my friend who sells his Tulips at Caplan’s and we were not disappointed. The staff is super friendly, the pastries and sandwiches fresh and so tasty, and the atmosphere very cozy. They offer a variety of teas, and will have vegan options soon! They are also pet friendly. So many wonderful things to say, but go experience it for yourself if you are shopping or spending the day in Old Town!!

Adorable cafe!! Owner was so kind. Great spot for family or early morning coffee with the hubby. Owner met us randomly at an our Girl Scout cookie sale and invited us to the cafe. Kids received free hot chocolates and moms enjoyed a wonderful meal! Thank you.

Great cafe in the spot Matcha Time used to occupy. Cappuccino was among the best I've ever had (including Europe and Asia). Very fine European style pastries, both savory and sweet. Staff is friendly and personable. Prices are very reasonable.

On a bright late winter morning we came to Al’s Love Cafe and the both the Neapolitan pastry and the warm waffle sandwiches (crab, shrimp, and chicken salad) were exceptional. The brewed coffee was just right too. We ate in the side room which was comfortable and accommodating. Strongly recommend visiting Al’s.

My husband had coffe with a blackberry tart and my brother had a strawberry tart with coffee, it was very good. I had jockey salad which was served on a warm croissant this was actually two sandwiches. It was excellent. Service with a smile. Background music was soft and not overwhelming.
