Cafe Intermezzo

Cafe Intermezzo

Cafe Intermezzo’s owners describe it as an “intermission” between life’s activities and responsibilities. Inspired by European coffeehouses, Intermezzo itself was founded in 1971 with the goal of bringing slow dining to America. Soft lighting and traditional decor encourages guests to leave stress at the door. Inside, rich desserts and smooth coffee draw in a diverse clientele. Along with pastries and sandwiches, the menu includes both unexpected small plates like mussels in sherry wine, and filling mains including spicy tortellini and salmon portofino. The cafe remains open until midnight, inviting guests to linger over an artisanal hot chocolate or a glass of red wine. Perfect for date night or an intimate dinner with a friend, Cafe Intermezzo also invites you to stop by on your own. It’s a perfect place to enjoy the company of your thoughts, accompanied by a delicate pastry and an expertly brewed cup of coffee.
