At the time I was living in Mission Hills, so I could walk there. I lived right off goldfinch street and the heartwork cafe had just opened. I loved it from the start. And one of the favorite things I loved was that they sold home made pop tarts or toaster oven pastries. Those were good!

And I loved that they make a strong strong coffee. Very strong. So strong that I can get wired on a third a cup. And they sell packaged coffee beans. And really good lattes. Mmmm. Worth making the trip for.

Several years and a pandemic later, I return from time to time, to visit my old neighborhood. The last visit last week, was my first since their remodel. It’s all walk-up on the sidewalk now. Which I kind of like better. It was pretty crowded and cozy inside before and I think they got a lot of internet users who overstayed their cuppa Joe.

So yes, I am still a fan. I didn’t see the toaster pastries though. Even without them, it’s still a solid 8 out of 10 for me. Atmosphere could be little nicer. But hey, don’t take my word for it. Go and see for yourself.
