Description: Several years ago, when Caffé Classico popped up on the Louisville coffeehouse scene, people assumed it would fall in the same category of self-service establishments that have become de rigueur in this country: You walk in and order your drink; if you stay, you take it to your table and perhaps grab a cookie or sandwich to go with it. But, enter Caffé Classico in the ‘Ville and you’ll notice it’s a different cup of tea all together. Sit down and relax a bit, because this isn’t an eat-and-run kind of place. Or a drink-and-run kind of place. A server will take your drink order, and bring you a menu if you want a bite to eat. The lunch menu includes several seasonal soup selections and salads, in addition to sandwiches and light entrees. Aside from Viennese coffee by Julius Meinl, you’ll find the beverage selection includes an assortment of juices, draft beers and wines as well.
