If entering this retro coffee house feels like walking on to a movie set for a Paris café, then Balzac's designers will pat themselves on the back. This was once ground zero for Hollywood North, before the Distillery District emerged as a tourist destination. The java is made from beans that are roasted on the premises. For caffeine addicts with a conscience, there are fair-trade and organic blends. A small selection of sweet breads, tarts and cookies is provided by decent pastry shop Dufflet Pastries.
