Quaint corner spot with a local, modern feel. When I saw their roasting operation on site, my expectations heightened. Heroes did not dissapoint. My GoTo is a Cortado. They nailed it. Dark, acidic, flavorful and balanced.
My daughter had an almond milk matcha--creamy, herbal, spot on.
My G/F enjoyed a vanilla soy latte, light vanilla and was surprised by the ability to allow the coffee to take center stage while the vanilla gave a peek of sweetness.
And the pastries? Are you kidding me? The barista was right about the scones. Light, soft, bursting with flavor. I wish I'd have tried every variety. The gluten-free lemon crinkle, delightful with its zesty, sweet, tartness. This soft, chewy, refreshing treat was a perfect sidecar to my coffee.
Well done, Heroes.
