Love this neighborhood cafe. Tasty breakfast burritos and many sandwich options. Their coconut honey latte is so so good. Great staff and very clean and welcoming space. Highly recommend.

My partner and I came here and each ordered an iced coffee and a bagel Sammie. The cashier was very sweet and said it would be a 20 minute wait for the food. We waited for nearly an hour before we got our food and it was barely warm. I understand the service industry is understaffed currently, but logistically they do not have their ducks in a row.

Extremely disappointed. I popped in to place a to-go order as my husband and I were out and about for the morning. Typically when I think to-go, I imagine 15-20 minute wait. 30 minutes if it's busy.I waited 53 minutes to get my order (lox bagels and a scramble bowl). The worst part, is when I placed the order I asked how long the wait was. The person taking my order just thrw their hands up and said I don't know. If I would have received an honest, "it'll be 50 minutes" I would have taken my business elsewhere.When I ordered, the dine-in wasn't busy. It was clear they had a handful of online orders, but, there should be no reason someone has to wait 50 minutes for two items. Properly staff or sort out the logistics to make it a smoother process.I wanted to wait to write this review until after we tried the food, in the hopes that the food would redeem the long wait.Not the case. My scramble was bland, like disgustingly bland, had maybe a couple small pieces of bacon (menu says two strips), my bread was cold. It was honestly just a mess.Save your precious time, not worth the wait. Extremely disappointed.

The building has a nice layout, ideal for either a café or bar. But the espresso drinks were watered down and pretty bland.There was plenty of space to dine in, and signage indicating the possibility, but my food was brought out clumped into a brown paper bag, no questions asked.The signature gyro was pretty good (once I walked home and reheated it). Good potato salad, too.

Stop it with the mask. The mandate is gone so stop treating people like idiots when they show up without one. And people sitting at a table aren’t any less risk then people standing. Makes no sense. I used to really like this place but wait times are long, staff lost their friendliness and they have made the inside pretty sterile. I just don’t have the same good vibes coming here anymore.

I go there very often because I like the menu. However certain days baristas could be extremely loud and noisy, imposible to work or focus. And the music too loud and inappropriate for the moment of the day. The baristas singing at loud, could not stayed quiet for a second, it’d be more stressful than relaxing.

Good menu and coffee, I’d suggest baristas were less noisy.

Great little neighborhood coffee shop. My problem was trying to decide what to eat. Friendly and helpful staff. I like their outdoor dining option. Masks are required when not at your table inside. They have a brisk clientele even on a Sunday morning at 7:30. There is 15 minute parking available for those who wish to do takeout.

I tried to swing by and grab a coffee today but was refused service because I didn't have a mask. I understand it is their right in their business to decide their masking policies, however, most places are not requiring masks now so I did not have one on me. When I asked if they had any, the woman working said they did not. Does not seem like a great way to do business. If they had provided a mask at the door I would have put it on, even if I don't agree with it, because it is their establishment. I hope they change their policy or at least provide some for customers who don't have one.

I can no longer recommend this place. I used to love coming here but not anymore. They are nice people and it’s a nice environment, but logistically they don’t have it together at all. It took over half an hour to get my simple sandwich I ordered when the place was hardly busy. The lady working the cashier didn’t seem to know what the customers were asking for when they were the basic items off their menu. The sandwich normally served hot was cold upon arrival. They are still enforcing you to wear a mask when it is no longer necessary or enforced anywhere else.
