My husband got a mocha which he loved and my decaf latte with a shot of hazelnut was the best coffee I have ever had. It was robot without being bitter and no migraine came on. Loved it.

This is a nice, cozy coffee shop and the baristas are friendly, as well. They have limited seating though, and it can get crowded quite easily.
Cool little place A nice.... Cool little place <br/ <br/ A nice representation of what commercial drive is (was? all about. Independent business with an eclectic clientele. My latte was excellent and a a slice of banana bread was very tasty. Staff appeared knowledgeable and helpful. Spall place with unpretentious decor. I would come back.
2nd living room. Look, you can debate about the quality of coffee all day, i chose turks because of it's atmosphere which is laid back and unpretentious. i'm not there everymorning to argue about the notes of the roast, i'm there to have a quiet moment, drink my morning cuppa and say hi to friends/neighbors as they head out for the day.
'Everybody Must Get Stoned... '. Next, at Charles and Commercial, is 'Turk 's '. Outside, a congregation of new age hippies, and cigarette smoking students over populate the patio tables, and block the doorway. Upon entering, I am immediately taken back to a memory from the Grasshopper in Amsterdam well known for it 's solicitation and consumption of weed fun times. However, I was on the official pursuit of caffeine, not THC. It was dark, dingy and reeked of weed. Blasting in the background was the course line to Bob Dylan 's ultimate 'Everybody must get stoned ' seriously? Not today. With a pivot in our steps, we exit Turk 's without liquids, but head up the street.
