This was our first time here and we will definitely be back. My husband met the owner Cristina at a symposium about green spaces and community. We decided to sit outside on a lovely Sunday morning. Food portions are large and everything is delicious. Some of the items are unusual and make this place very special.
This is a relatively new cafe that opened up in the spot where the old Carma's Cafe used to be. Its a charming addition to St. Paul Street which is otherwise dominated by soulless chains. Their coffee is pretty strong (I like to get the Vietnamese coffee in particular), and their pastries are delicious too. They feature unique asian flavors; friends highly recommend the Pandan Mochi Cake and the Matcha Pan de Sal. There is somewhat limited seating and outlets indoors, so it may not be the best place for large groups or long study sessions. Perfect for chatting, though!
I’m convinced that this is the best cafe in the world! 🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍🌎🌍🌏 The drinks are amazing, the staff is wonderful, and the homemade pastries are absolutely to die for! This has been my go-to coffee shop since they opened a few months ago, but I just realized I don’t have nearly enough pictures of all the delicious treats they have because I keep eating everything so quickly! 😭 I promise everything there is SOOOOOOO GOOD!!! My favorites are the -Spice Knot -Nutella-Tahini cookie -Best Carrot cake ever (available sometimes, not always) -Raspberry Matcha 1,000,000,000,000,000/10⭐️
Traveled to JHU for a conference and stopped by this adorable café! Great matcha and Asian inspired pastries!! I got the Vietnamese pandan cake and the iced raspberry matcha. The baristas were SO nice and the atmosphere was so cute and cozy. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and want high quality matcha and pastries!!
If you're looking for a cozy and welcoming spot with a unique culinary flair, the new Blueprint Cafe is a must-visit! I tried their Tahini cookie, and it was absolutely amazing—perfectly nutty and rich. Paired with a cup of their aromatic "Chinese Flower Green Sencha" tea, it made for a delightful experience. The tea was so fragrant and soothing, a true treat for tea lovers. What sets this cafe apart is the unusual Vietnamese twist they bring to their recipes, adding an unexpected and delicious touch. The friendly service and warm atmosphere only enhanced the experience. Highly recommend stopping by for a taste!
