Great desserts but the parking space is insufficient , also a lot of traffic in the zone so it’s difficult to get in and out of the parking lot.

Excellent coffee, awesome food, desserts and chocolates, great customer service, one of the best bakeries in our country. Comfy and quiet place to escape from the city noise (while being in the city). Downside: few parking slots.

Just had the Mexican breakfast at Shaw's and it was delicious! Paired it with a latte and a delightful pineapple pastry that I really enjoyed. The atmosphere was calm and perfect for a morning meal. They have an extensive selection that has me excited to come back for more. Looking forward to my next visit!

Great service, beautiful outdoor space. They take the proper measures to prevent the COVID spread. Fine pastry and desserts. If you like strong coffee order the espresso, if you prefer a mild coffee have the Shaw's special. They offer decaf options too. This is for sure one of my favorite spots.
