text: Sitting at one end of the motelconvertedstripmall adjacent to Buffalo Exchange finally found Cartel Ironically I heard a rave about it from Jeff M last year and I am glad I did not have a chance to read his recent review I am your typical social coffee drinker so maybe I would of felt undeserving to grace the doors based on the flack but my gal pal and I got no attitude whatsoever nnIn fact the blond barista definitely knew her drinks and graciously explained away I did not have to worry about an order faux pas with my iced mocha but my friend definitely did not get any flack when she hoped for a caramel macchiato offering Once advised it is not a la Starbucks style she was gently steered into an agaveflavored ice latte Besides both drinks being awesome I agree w Jeff it IS about service and this barista hit it right on
