The barista, Joanna I think her name was, was so kind and thoughtful and had overall wonderful customer service. We had a great conversation as she prepared my order. I ordered a latte and a bagel. My food came quickly and the latte was delicious! Overall great experience. I will be back

Despite being named the Pineapple Cafe I was disappointed to find a lack of pineapple options. Although names aren't always indicative of what's the the restaurant, this one was especially heart breaking for someone who is a fan of pineapple. Otherwise a nice, cozy cafe to compliment a hotel. Maybe a good place go grab a quick breakfast of lunch but a bad place to find pineapple.

I am not sure why all the bad reviews. I got my white chocolate mocha and sandwich in the morning. Both were tasty! The White Chocolate Mocha latte had to be some of the best coffee I ever had and I have been to Vietnam, and Costa Rica.

Excellent whole milk latte. 4 stars because menu options are like Starbucks: premade to be warmed up. Enjoyed a great slow morning in the restaurant. Five stars for the seating options.
