The taste of the turkey sandwich is amazing, the owner's behavior is very friendly, and all the cakes and cookies are baked in-house with no preservatives.

The atmosphere is quaint and cute but when I recieved my bagel BLT it was not so cute at all. The bagel was barely toasted and the bacon tasted as if they just stuck in the microwave for a few seconds. it was quite soggy and less than desirable which is a shame because the staff was very

Grossly overpriced for the food you get. Veggie wrap consisting of mostly lettuce for $15 is outrageous, even in our economic times.

Unfortunately, their food is overpriced for what you get. I got a medium mocha and skinny breakfast burrito for 14 and something bucks. Unfortunately, I didn’t finish it as the food wasn’t up to par.

A total rip off. I just paid $7 for a mediocre, overly sweet muffin (best specialty bakeries in town don’t charge more than $4).I usually don’t leave bad reviews cause I know it hurts small business owners, but in this case they need a reality check on quality/price.That muffin was not worth more than $2.

Waiting in line to get food and a beverage. Asked if the bathroom needed a key to which the lady in a passive aggressive tone "it is for paying customers, yeah"

Nice place, tasty food, kind personal and they are open in holidays!)

$12.36 for a weak latte and a very dry muffin? You must be joking! Just up the road at Union Pacific it's nearly $5 cheaper and the quality is WAY higher. I definitely won't be back!

I saw this place on Instagram, specifically "nearme.victoria" and my expectations were so high. But actually going there was such a disappointing experience. I will give it two stars just because the people at the counter are so kind and the mocha coffee I ordered was decent enough.The place is like an old cluttered house.I ordered a popular breakfast sandwich but the food leaves a lot to be desired and the presentation is just terrible.I went there trying to work (I am a remote worker) but the places to seat are so uncomfortable.Definitely not going back.

Middle of the road, nothing noteworthy to write about. My latte was a little off, but I was able to finish it. I was a bit disappointed that everything we were served was in disposable cups and on disposable plates, even though we said 'for here'. The person behind the counter was friendly though, especially considering they were closing in a few hours.
