"Great coffee at a local spot. I told the owner I'd come back to get more coffee and I did! The owner is a really nice guy and is the one doing everything, so the wait can be a bit long but it is okay because you get to enjoy the cozy cafe. We loved Nice, and will be back again to Alvin's when we are here."
