Came here with work colleagues as the coffe is supposed to be decent, and they have a lunch set. Artisan is a cosy cafe, offering a good choice of coffee. Our group of 6 had luckily phoned in ahead, because we were aware that they had limited seating, and the place fills up fast during the lunch rush. We got seated immediately.

I ordered the All Day Breakfast Waffle set, which comes with a tea or coffee, and I was able to upgrade to a latte at a small extra charge. Barista and staff were friendly, but not overly chatty.

Now just a word of warning-this place has a tiny little kitchen in the corner, where one chef prepares everything. It is by no means an efficient, professional kitchen...but it somehow works. During lunch,or possibly whenever multiple people order food at the same time, there will be a fair wait. Although my latte came within a few minutes, my waffle breakfast took what seemed like forever, but was actually about 45min. This is fine if you're with your friends for a long lunch, but please don't count on this place for speed if you have a 2 o'clock with your boss. You won't make it.

To their credit, the food delivered was delicious, and in generous quantity. Mushrooms were flavourful, eggs fluffy and waffle piping hot with a slight crunch. It was just a shame that I had not enough time to enjoy it!

My colleagues' choices of pasta carbonara and mushroom crepe were also tasty, so will be back another time when we are not in a hurry to get back to work.

Artisan cafe是常常路過,令人躍躍欲試的一間咖啡廳。這裡坐位不多,因此常常客滿。小店用了很大空間用來做沖調飲品的水吧,斜對面又騰出地方做廚房,所以店內環境有點擠迫。我們坐在吧檯位置,店員放下清水和餐牌,客人需要走去水吧收銀那邊下單。等候食物期間,我們被要求移去別的坐位,甫坐下,便聽到隣卓似乎對於剛上菜的食物有投訴,要求更換。我們點的是法式薄餅,平時比較常吃甜的,今日來個鹹的。圓圓的薄餅被折成了正方形,正中央放了太陽蛋、西班牙火腿和瑞士芝士,旁邊伴了一些蔬菜和菇類,顏色非常好看。可惜,薄餅整體味道很淡,太陽蛋沒流心效果,雖然中間放了芝士和火腿,卻奇怪沒半點鹹味。眼前的熱朱古力,未知是否餐牌所指的特濃朱古力,因為質感很薄,而且味道很淡。倒是表面有個非常不錯,像天鵝的拉花,它令我想起台風天鵝,我似乎開始要擔心我的台中之旅了。樂見香港有個人特色的咖啡店越開越多,令我們除了星巴克外,開始有更多的選擇。不過,週末去到哪間咖啡店都要排隊等位,如果有一天,我們可以去到哪裡,一推門就有位子,不用爭、不用等,能有這份真正慢活的悠閒,你說有多好 ...(雖然店主可能不是這樣想喇...)。

疲勞的下午,找到間位於轉角處小小的cafe。這店主要提供waffle & crepe,今次我點了flat white, 細細的泡令咖啡變得更滑,更好飲。我點的是蘑菇蛋crepe, 略為有點油膩,味道一般。友人點了egg Benedict, 將English muffin轉為waffle, 蛋黃流到waffle上,唔止好睇,仲好好味,一次過滿足兩個願望。

吃罷灣仔Le Crêperie和Odelice的crepe,是日,去了天后的Artisan Cafe。下午五時多,未有客人,店內一片的靜謐。揀了最簡單的青檸沙糖法式薄餅,以及,一杯名為“非之秋”的飲品。非之秋Herbal - African Autumn with honey & lemon$42名字惹人無限的遐思,極富詩意。據說,此茶來自非洲,乃一款健康茶,維生素營養高,具有降血脂,降膽固醇,降血糖之功效,且不含咖啡因和草酸。非之秋由赤萁茶,木槿和橙皮調配而成,茶色褐紅如紅茶,茶味豐富飽滿,個人而言,宜混入蜜糖同吃,更為甜美易入喉。青檸沙糖法式薄餅Lime and Sugar Crepe原價$62,小妹則以破低價$26選購。除了兩件淺色薄餅,還配上一球雪糕,以及幼滑忌廉,賣賣確實不錯。薄餅薄身,惜,質感稱不上是軟熟香腍,蛋香和牛油香也不太著跡,青檸和沙糖也下得極少,黯然失色,如在吃乏味粉餅似的,略感失望!

一出天后站,整條電氣道兩旁全是食肆,保證有間合心水,更保證有位。這天來到較遠的Artisan Cafe。窗上寫著大大的Artisan Cafe,在街角特別搶眼。小小的Cafe,廚房和水吧都是開放式,佈置簡約,帶出小店的特色。Set lunch意粉、薄餅、三文治都有,某幾道都幾吸引。Crepe with truffle mushroom and chicken cream sauce薄餅軟中帶點煙韌,淡淡蛋香,較像日式可麗餅。放滿切成大小均一的雞肉和蘑菇,蘑菇忌廉汁夠稠又香濃,跟薄餅很夾。挺喜歡薄餅的清香,沒有牛油香,實在的口感亦幾飽肚。年多前曾到灣仔的LA Creperie,薄餅較薄,沒有醬汁,反是用上大量的芝士,款式較多且感覺正宗。兩間各有特式。Chicken arrabiata失敗之作。完全沒有蕃茄味,只有微微的辣味,雞肉又嚡又硬,而且很乾,跟吃白烚意粉沒有分別。唯一可取的是,扁意粉煮得頗有口感。Seafood crepe雖然不是午餐,但被餐牌裡的圖片吸引,即使沒有餐飲,也要一試。蝦幾新鮮,肉質夠嫩。同是煙煙韌韌的薄餅,一刺穿便流出大量忌廉汁。沒蘑菇汁般稠,忌廉味較重,包著菠菜、蝦

Seafood crepe
雖然不是午餐,但被餐牌裡的圖片吸引,即使沒有餐飲,也要一試。蝦幾新鮮,肉質夠嫩。同是煙煙韌韌的薄餅,一刺穿便流出大量忌廉汁。沒蘑菇汁般稠,忌廉味較重,包著菠菜、蝦肉和帶子。都不錯,但餡料偏小,還是$88午餐的雞肉蘑菇較抵又較好吃。

香蕉蛋糕
跟一般的香蕉蛋糕不同,十分輕盈。焗得微脆,加上爽口的合桃,幾有層次。入口暖暖的,香蕉味濃。冰涼的雲尼拿雪糕,奶味不太重,口感很輕,入口即融。

除了意粉外,食物算是不錯,也有心思。店員十分友善,還應要求為友人寫上Happy Birthday。服務用心,更添小店的親切感。

在炮台山吃完麵後,吃得飽飽,當然需要散散步,就往天后方向行,記起常搭車經過的一角小咖啡店,就跟友人去飲喝杯咖啡。一踏入店,老闆就安排我們坐在靠窗邊的位置,當時店內還有一桌在晚飯的食客,拿到Menu後,當然又要苦惱一陣才能選定,決定多點一個Waffle,(之前在某家吃過Waffle,很硬,不敢再點,跟友人是有陰影),但還是決定一試。Mango Waffle︰即叫即整的,能讓我們從陰影走出來一點點,雪糕+Cream沾著吃,不錯,芒果也甜Caramel Latte︰喝咖啡,最重要是熱,不錯不錯!很滑非之秋︰忘了是不是這名字,友人點了茶,附上蜜糖看到店是22:30關門,在差不多22:00才有2名食客進來,老闆也歡迎,沒有提及要留意關門時間,還讓員工準時收工,自己留下來招呼客人,沒有催促的意思,這樣的態度我覺得還比食物的味道更重要,是不是叫「人情味」?可惜今次是吃得飽飽才去,沒能試上其他東西,不過我們還會再去的,嚐嚐別的。

跟朋友茶餘飯後,還是想再來點吃的但已經夜一夜,走著走著,好多餐廳都已經收舖而且只是小食過癮,又唔想太過大堆頭結果闖入一家轉角位的咖啡店看看……Ginger Latte $40拉花看著也不錯,就算我地咁夜先去到都唔係極求其咁做等收舖奶咖顏色頗均勻,斟滿一個透明玻璃杯,沒有過份分層唔使問都知唔係講緊奶泡唔分,而係奶與咖啡徹底滲混奶泡挺身綿密,帶有淡淡咖啡及薑的清香甜香甜香,順滑溜口,稠度剛剛好不會太過漿口咖啡香味沒有被奶濃蓋過,尤是沁人味蕾,縈留在嘴舌之上薑味則是普普,只有淡淡薑香,但不重不烈,嗆味自然不用提了一般不太喜歡有奶的咖啡,感覺太膩口,這個似乎還可以接受

拉花看著也不錯,就算我地咁夜先去到都唔係極求其咁做等收舖
奶咖顏色頗均勻,斟滿一個透明玻璃杯,沒有過份分層
唔使問都知唔係講緊奶泡唔分,而係奶與咖啡徹底滲混

奶泡挺身綿密,帶有淡淡咖啡及薑的清香
甜香甜香,順滑溜口,稠度剛剛好不會太過漿口
咖啡香味沒有被奶濃蓋過,尤是沁人味蕾,縈留在嘴舌之上
薑味則是普普,只有淡淡薑香,但不重不烈,嗆味自然不用提了
一般不太喜歡有奶的咖啡,感覺太膩口,這個似乎還可以接受

每次經過這cafe都想試試,但時間總是不對。上星期終於有機會和母親大人去食一個early lunch。店內座位不多,只剩對著門口的counter位置。當日天氣頗冷,擔心老人家受涼,便問店長可否安排其他座位。店內顧客都很nice,聽到我們對話都說願意調位,讓出table seats。店長亦很認真安排,絕對沒有像不少食肆「有位你就坐」那種敷衍態度。食物方面,cafe雖然是semi self-serve型式(需到coffee bar落單),但食物一點也不馬虎。我們點了Waffle All Day Breakfast及Mushroom in Cream Crepe。All Day Breakfast的蛋炒蛋甚香,沒有一般西式炒蛋欠滑的弊病,waffle質感味道亦很合胃口。Crepe的cream sauce對我而言過鹹,但仍覺mushroom很好食。兩個set 的份量很足。女廚師在迷你「廚房」一人負責多份食物,做得出色利落,值得一讚。咖啡點了跟餐的Americano及加$10的Flat White。前者味道濃得來不太dark roasted,後者亦不會其他cafe那樣奶味過重。相信有機會一定再去

Typically, I don't really like visiting a cafe early on as most will need some time to whip itself up to be in a decent shape. Unlike others who like to be there first to tell people their experiences/stories, I don't really like to put myself through things like this just to be among the first to have such experience before others at a certain new place. I usually prefer to give them a 6 month period for all that kinked to be iron out.

But this one is different as it is in the area I spent quite a few of my time there. And the café looks real good from the outside. The machine setting looks decent and the décor is good, a nice change to most cafés that is good on coffee but seems to fall short on other details in term of comfort and well thought out place, in my humble opinion.

Once I step inside for the first time, I thought I was singled out for the type of service I received. When I showed up at 10:57am, the shop told me that they had not yet opened so I needed to wait till the official hours which started at 11:00am. But the impression I got was that nobody was quite in charge and I needed to leave the shop waiting outside until 11am. So, I asked the shop whether I can just sit and wait inside, in a way inviting myself of sort to be there inside the shop. It took them a moment to come up with a ‘yes’ at the time. Strange as it sounded then and now to me. So I sat and waited.

Once another customer came in at 11:00am, the barista proceeded to take order right away, ignoring me in the process while preparing drinks for that customer. I really hate this kind of service I felt like I was cut the line while lining up. Mad was beyond the word I would use. A very big complaint here on the thing I hate the most.

Also, the barista didn't show he cared or bothered who he served the coffee. Whoever and whenever get his coffee in order or not did not matter; that seems to be the attitude that the barista showed to me on that day. Or this is a last-in-first-out kinda practice because if that's the case they should put it in writing clearly on the wall somewhere so customers can see and prepare. I was at the shop first, a first customer to be exact on that day, almost felt like I put up a fight to be seated and waited patiently to order but got pass/cut the line with barista showing no remorse, feeling, care or anything at all about my being here. Should I not complain?

It's easy to solve but, for customers, it can be like a straw that breaks the camel’s back, easily cause a drama in your cafe so this should be one of the focuses of any cafe, don't let customers feel they were cut in the line like this again.

Back to the interior, this café has a two island setup which is a nice change to any other café with a long counter enclosing all things be it food or coffee. A person I respect on the Indy café operation did mention that this is not a good and efficient use of space, cost and manpower.

But for a consumer like me I welcomed a change like this like a breath of a fresh air to the same old same old thing forced upon us by the regulation, operating efficiency or whatever. You can really see and smell things while they cook. Unfortunately, I wasn't really there for food on that day though I will try it next time.

Long time no see French Press in an obvious display for Indy cafes as French press seemed to fall out of fashion with Indy due to its rather 'murky' cup which seemed to reduce the clarity the third wavers these days crave for.

Also, on the décor side, the trend comes fast. I saw Hario used V60 funnel as a lamp shade at SCAJ World Specialty Coffee Conference and Exhibition 2014 toward the end of September this year. Artisan seems to play homage, accidentally or intentionally, by using siphons as a lamp shade. Very creative and nice indeed.

My first order is my usual milk drink, cappuccino. The drink came at a right temp per my request i.e. not scalding hot like most served to fit the local requirement. For the cup itself, the milk was neither luxurious nor bad.
Pass but no charm in the cup

The coffee base of the Capp feels good but is mostly basic generic genre for espresso that is caramel sweet with hint of exotic nose and acidity, not those brighter coffee that seemed to be the "IT" thing these days.

Some weakness of the coffee base is a bit roasty tone at the back. The roasty back get worse in the milk when it cooled down further but, luckily, it is not that much of a distraction I can still enjoy the coffee.
Neither good nor bad. Nothing was memorable

Espresso tastes like a very basic blend with a hint of darkness trying to punch through milk on a rather traditional/classic note closed to what I tastes years back in Hong Kong. Again, it is neither good nor bad i.e. more or less a hint of dirty back but not much to bother me. I considered myself lucky after I talked to more folks that tried coffee at Artisan as I was told it's bitter and the cup felt like grinder wasn't set right. Still this is a given for a cafe just in operation not too long ago though some manage to outdo this like the first two week at the Cupping Room when it was still in Stanley.  And you know how far the Cupping Room has come now!
Sharp curve ahead on how this lemon water will twist your taste perception

This type of lemon water did damage to my tastebud in Singapore at Chye Seng Huat Hardware so that you can't really get a good taste of coffee itself. I need to get my own bottle water to visit this type of cafés but I forgot. I ended up asking for a water from the filtered faucet right beside the espresso machine. I can taste coffee much better with any regular water than this spiked water. If you think coffee served was real bad, drink this lemon water right after you finish the coffee, it will save your day and allow you to be fairer to other cafes if you plan to drop by right after the one that serves horrible coffee. Otherwise it will twist your tongue further away from how the coffee really tastes like and it will be a shame if that café happens to serve good coffee with a good pull. Also, Artisan used pancake syrup as you can see from the bottle in the picture, not the real maple syrup! Just FYI if you are after the real thing.
Passable when hot...

My drip coffee is coming and the dripper seemed to show a decent move so far but the proof is in the cup, isn't it? The drip coffee of Brazil, the barista and the owner's recommendation, was ok vs other drip in town but this cup can still be improved significantly. I got the taste profile of some acidity and caramel but was rather blurred/not clean and clear. One can partly claim it is due to Fuji Royal grinder's easy cup profile. At that time, I'm sure once it cooled down the cup will be undrinkable. And as expected over brewed tea are dominant when it cools down with unpalatable "chocolate."

After I dropped by this cafe, all the negative comments ensued and seemed to flood in both on openrice and from all the people I drank coffee with. Typically I would just say Artisan had bad days but as I was there to witness the service myself, I could help sympathize with all those complaints and wonder how much worse they get vs. what my treatment I received. Even after a nice café like Artisan opened in a conspicuous location vs others in the area, when I walked pass by the area, Silly Boo is almost always full to the seam they needed to turn customers away at times and I heard Espresso Alchemy has a relatively good business. Artisan, however, is typically relatively less busy most time I wonder why people need to wait and wait at Silly Boo. I know the answer after I drop by; it's not difficult to see once you are at Artisan.

Still, all in all this is still the beginning/early days as the cafe opened a week or two so one needs to give the place some time to settle. In addition to the décor, the owner seems to be very enthusiast but not overly which is a nice. Also, I feel like I cannot put the finger on this café on the direction it will go in the future. It’s in a ‘transition’ phase and there is almost an equal chance for the place to go up or down on quality.
I can only wonder what the use of this thing

I consider myself lucky on coffee beverages I had which is just OK vs. others that I haven't heard any good word at all on the coffee.  The service needs significant improvement so it's a crying face.  Overall, ok cup, bad service and just opening at the time I just placed it barely OK.

For now, you can enjoy the decor and ambience at Artisan with owners that are more of an enthusiast than businessmen which can't be bad for enthusiasts, IMHO.  We'll see how the cafe turns out to be in six months time.  I can only hope Artisan improves by then but what I heard so far has not been encouraging at all.

天后終於有新的specialty coffee shop開業了,立即去試試﹗很喜歡這吧檯位置,我就坐在這個角落 : )先來一杯Cafe Latte (HK$38)。店主說是doubleshot的,果然咖啡味較濃,但絕不會過酸過澀,依然不用加糖,值得慢慢細味。再來個 "Waffle with Mango" (HK$78)﹗噢,單是賣相已甜美得不得了﹗看,粒粒新鮮芒果肥大肉厚,份量極多,一吃下去,想不到連那個sauce都是用芒果「打」出來的,絕非化學味的假芒果糖漿﹗更不用說Waffle面層略脆,內裡卻又保持鬆軟……我吃得太滋味,忍不住邊吃邊不停偷笑﹗﹗﹗太精彩﹗差點忘了說,我甫坐下,店長便主動送上清水一杯,我又加分了﹗ 一定一定會再來的 ^__^

某天和同事在天后區覓食時,發現之前一整在裝修的酒店已經竣工了,而地鋪是一家外觀非常吸引的Cafe,心心念念了好幾天,終於在上上周有機會嘗嘗鮮了。一進店就是吧臺位置,點餐處也在裡面,背後是一個大玻璃窗,光猛之餘亦陽光亦令人感到十分悠閒舒服,感覺坐在吧臺看著店員沖調咖啡亦是件賞心樂事。不過當天我們「猴」著店裡最盡頭對著行人路的高桌。說是高桌,其實就是一塊木板設在落地玻璃窗旁。看著路人來來往往,感覺滿特別的。 店內都是以輕食為主,午餐時有Lunch set可選。既然一場來到,就抱著試試看的心情點餐去了。同事點了Crepe with sunny side egg, parma ham and swiss cheese with coffee or tea (HK$68),太陽蛋熟度很剛好,伴著香口的香菇非常好吃。唯一不滿足的是份量太小,吃完反倒更餓了。 至於自己就點了All day waffle breakfast with coffee or tea (HK$108),跟餐點了莓茶 (另加HK$10) 感覺比起Crepe更划算!All day waffle breakfast的份量對於我們來

某天和同事在天后區覓食時,
發現之前一整在裝修的酒店已經竣工了,而地鋪是一家外觀非常吸引的Cafe,
心心念念了好幾天,終於在上上周有機會嘗嘗鮮了。

一進店就是吧臺位置,點餐處也在裡面,
背後是一個大玻璃窗,光猛之餘亦陽光亦令人感到十分悠閒舒服,
感覺坐在吧臺看著店員沖調咖啡亦是件賞心樂事。
不過當天我們「猴」著店裡最盡頭對著行人路的高桌。
說是高桌,其實就是一塊木板設在落地玻璃窗旁。
看著路人來來往往,感覺滿特別的。

店內都是以輕食為主,午餐時有Lunch set可選。
既然一場來到,就抱著試試看的心情點餐去了。
同事點了Crepe with sunny side egg, parma ham and swiss cheese with coffee or tea (HK$68),太陽蛋熟度很剛好,伴著香口的香菇非常好吃。
唯一不滿足的是份量太小,吃完反倒更餓了。

至於自己就點了All day waffle breakfast with coffee or tea (HK$108),
跟餐點了莓茶 (另加HK$10) 感覺比起Crepe更划算!
All day waffle breakfast的份量對於我們來說感覺才剛好,
蛋很香很滑、窩夫外脆內軟,值得一讚!
莓茶用料很足,配以蜂蜜,可以自己控制甜度。
剛好那幾天天氣開始變冷,來杯暖暖的花茶實在太幸福了~

雖然餐點份量偏少,不過頗喜歡餐廳的景觀和美食,
之後有機會的話還想去吃吃看店裡的漢堡和甜點!

The waffle came with small pieces of fresh, ripe mango, vanilla ice cream, and a huge dollop of cream. The crepe had fresh strawberries, ice cream and also cream. On both, the ice cream were slightly icey. I must say, I enjoyed the crepe much better than the mango waffle as the latter tasted soft in the middle with crusty sides. Ingredients tasted fresh. The highlight however were the coffees. Smooth thick milk and strong coffee taste. Really good for a coffeeshop in the neighbourhood. Will be back again for the coffee! Expect to hear more from this place.

While the staff were friendly, I felt they needed to be more professional. There was an empty table next to the one my friend and I occupied and two of the staff took it to enjoy their self-cooked meal, which made us feel slightly uncomfortable.
