Crowd-pleasing cafe with very affordable coffee and pastries, great for casual breakfasts and laptop time off-peak, but service inconsistency and policy enforcement can sour busy-hour visits.
Novell delivers reliable coffee quality and exceptional value that keeps regulars returning, but inconsistent pastry execution and variable service attention—especially during morning rushes—prevent a higher grade. The spacious, laptop-friendly setting works well off-peak, though recent service friction suggests operational strain during busy periods.
One caveat: Policy enforcement can feel abrupt, especially with laptops and Wi-Fi during busy hours
