Espresso A La Cart is the best. I have known Dave(the great owner) almost since he started the business and it has just gotten better over time. He used to have an actual cart but since then upgraded to a really nice bar like set up. He offers an extremely large array of drink options at reasonable prices. Espresso, drip coffee, lattes(flavored too!), cappuccinos(flavored too!), hot chocolate, tea(chai tea too!), smoothies and even has bottled waters and soft drinks. Plus pastries! He is quick and extremely friendly, always gives great customer service. He can cater as well! He also offers this rewards card, any 10 coffees at reg price and get any coffee free!(its like a stamp card) He takes cash and card and provides free WiFi! I am a loyal Espresso A La Cart customer, you should definitely try him out! FYI: He is located inside the 1000 Walnut building Only down side is that he doesn’t have his own seating but down the hall the building has general seating.(chairs and tables)

I have been to Espresso Ah La Cart twice now and have had a great experience both times. The gentleman that has been behind the cart and preparing coffee is an ace at customer service. He is very friendly, personable, and serves up your order very quickly. This little cart is quite capable, offering coffee, espresso and espresso drinks as well as smoothies. The actual espresso is good, full of caffeinated delicious flavor. I did have to drop from being a fan(four stars) to recognizing that this place is A-OK(three stars) because they do not accept plastic. I can completely understand why, those machines can really cut into profits when all of your sales barely hit the $ 5 mark. But as reviews go, being specific to the personal experience, I have to say a cash only establishment is just difficult for me to visit often as I rarely carry cash. If you work or live in the business district and have the cash, Espresso Al La Cart is well worth the visit. They are located in the Arcade between 10th and 11th Streets(off of Main or Walnut). They also have a selection of pastries that look quite tantalizing.
