Highly recommended! Read more
Food for 4-stars. I must be honest, without the food score this rating would be drastically different. Coffee service was a... little rough due to the amount of orders and what seemed to be not enough machines to keep up with demand. My order of acinnamon latte was basic in build and the flavor was very simple, almost too light; I tasted more oat milk than cinnamon orespresso. Switching gears, the chef and team in the kitchen here do an amazing job. The biscuit was sliced then lightly toastedgiving a beautiful brown color reminiscent of perfectly cooked french toast, while the bite is pillow-like melting in yourmouth. It was perfection. The cherry tomatoes were perfectly blistered and my eggs were not overcooked. There were three smallcrispy fingerling style potatoes that were lightly smashed and probably pan fried with my guess would be butter, garlic, androsemary...put more on the plate please chef! They were phenomenal. I\'ll be back for the food and maybe I\'ll give a hot coffeedrink another go. Read more
This open air indoor/outdoor coffee shop has full service coffee selections, and the food selections were also robust looking... and varied. The Avocado toast was seasoned, flavored, and delightful. I had a lavender cappuccino with almond milk, andthoroughly enjoyed every sip. The day I went was very busy (Sunday at 11). This made the service slow, but everything came outstill warm. so as was still fresh. Read more
A comfortable coffee place with a relaxing vibe to chat with friends or work on your computer. Good coffee and kind service too.... They roast their beans in house so it’s not surprising. And while they don’t have many gluten-free food options, I did get abreakfast platter which they kindly changed out the bread for another item. It’s in a big square with a lot of other foodoptions anyways. Read more
I\'d come back here for breakfast for sure. I love that I can order on a tablet. Coffee service was a little slow, but it was... 9am on a Saturday. Food service was very fast. The eggs Benedict were so tasty!\n\nOutdoor seating was lovely on a cool morning.Since it\'s in the middle of the courtyard, it doesn\'t get too much direct sunlight much of the day.\n\nBeware the birds. Ifyou have food and have to go to the counter for anything (e.g. extra napkins) take your plate! The sparrows will attack whileyour back is turned. Read more
I had the best Spanish latte while hubbs had a really good cold brew coffee ? (not bitter, ????)! The ???? blueberry pancakes... ???? were delicious. The ???? crab taco ???? was really good too. The slow braised pulled pork was awesome, however you shouldget it on sourdough bread. I think that would be so much better as the bagel ???? was nothing special. The prices are high, butwe enjoyed everything we ordered. You can order ahead online or order via tablet when you arrive, not great unless you alreadyknow what you want. I did find it uncomfortable that the straws were unwrapped in a bucket for customers to grab from. Read more
A more fresh and robust menu offering than your typical cafe. Feels bright and easy. But not cheap. I ordered the blueberry... pancake, a side of eggs, & a turmeric latte. $25. The pancake was super thick. But with the compote, I liked it. Eggs werecooked perfectly. Latte was standard. But I really enjoyed spending a couple hours there & I’d come back again. Read more
Waited for 10 minutes while both of Baristas was looking. Eventually one came to explain I have to order on the iPad and they... don’t accept cash. Wanted the V60 which was on the board but not on the iPad but wasn’t available they have a single originbut only one kind and paid $3.45 for a ready made cold coffee instead of hot . Not a successful visit !! Read more
