GENE Cafe

Huge windows are great for natural light , gazing at the downtown skyline, and Main St people watching (both inside and out). Excellent, eclectic selection of reading material. Lots of hipsters around.

Hands down the best croissants in the CITY . Freshly baked a couple times a day, there is a good chance you'll get them WARM. Solid cup o' Americano too.

Slow, clumsy but super friendly service in this hip , bright Mt. Pleasant coffee shop . Oh, and the coffee ? Phenomenal. Also try the rooibos chai latte . Pet-friendly!

Try the cappuccino . Here it's more like a flat white : the velvety texture of a cappuccino , but with the intensity of a strong espresso . Best of both worlds!

Great bright space on the corner where Main and Kingsway connect. They serve cortados !

Coffee shop for hipsters . Where MACbook, indie rock and 70s inspired fashion mesh. Try the ginger hot chocolate for something new.

Excellent cortado , friendly service

I love Gene's coffee . I just wish the service was a bit faster.

Sit in the narrow corner. Intimate.

cool new lighting fixture! great people watching and interesting music always

Try the Cortado ; you won't regret it!

Hey there are new owners here!!! And new baristas :( What do you think of the coffee now?

Gene cafe is for hipsters , our town cafe is for hippies. What a difference one block makes.

Nice little cafe in the middle of no where. Ha.

Best coffee in Mount Pleasant. Service isn't quick, but the coffee is worth it.

Best almond milk latte I've ever had

Good coffee & still bright on a grey day.

Awesome Polish Pillow . Specialty from Poland. Wakes u up without the coffeeine flash.

Gene is nice; with all the tragic that happens here right now.

And they're the only place I know that offers almond milk ... Do it do it

Todays password at Gene is (believe it or not): Eat and Drink at Ping's... 11th and Main

Just have an Americano and love it.

The light at GENE around 5/6pm is sooooo beautiful. Good for Portraits.

Orange Dulche iced tea is amazing.

Cuppaccino. Do it.
