We go here on occasion, they have breakfast tacos. My wife loved them and also loves the mocha. I always get the chai, it's only okay, the Chico chai from the market is the best I wish somewhere else made it like that. This place has indoor self seating but can get busy so secure a spot before ordering food. Staff is really friendly.

Good food, good tea, lovely people. Usually not too noisy, and there's a nice outdoor seating area for when the weather is good. One of my favorite local spots.

Every time I came to Chico I have to eat here. The chefs always surprise me with new items on the menu. I had the tacos this time and a breakfast sauce patty. Both dishes were extremely good. Since I am fully vegan I had my first pumpkin spice latte fro this 2023 season and Oh my Goodness you really taste the pumpkin flavors on it. The service is always phenomenal and ambience is great. I love to sit outside because it feels like pure nature and you enjoy the birds singing all around. Peaceful place to enjoy great coffee and food!

Finally tried this place. We are vegan so had an iced vanilla latte (good), scone (best thing we got), and breakfast sandwich (wouldn't get again). Ordered a hashbrown for my kids and had to send it back. They make their own and I've never tasted something so horrible, had to spit it out. It was total cornstarch and really hard shreds of potato. When I brought this to the attention of the employee, he grabbed $ out of their jar for charity and tried to give to me. Thought that was really odd and did not take it. Left feeling uncomfortable and sadly won't be back.

Vegan breakfast for the win!!I have such a hard time finding vegan breakfast foods, so this was a real treat!!We had two scones - blackberry lemon and raspberry almond. They were perfect - soft and crumbly, great flavor. Gosh, it was nice to eat a sweet treat like that without having to worry about my dairy allergy!We also shared the Southwest Burrito and The Classic sandwich. Both were delicious, but the sandwich blew me away. Great flavor combination, so creamy. I would definitely order that again!We also tried the Love Bug latte and a chai latte. I love that they use oat milk. Both drinks were great - not too sweet. Service was friendly, though a little slower than we're used to. We're on vacation so it didn't matter.

Been here a handful of times. Slow service. I think we waited over 30 minutes for our breakfast sandwiches and there were almost no customers coming in. Staff was standing around chatting. When the food finally arrived I thought the breakfast sandwiches tasted too fatty, like maybe too much aioli? The "egg" and "cheese" were burnt. I didn't find the patio to be a welcoming place to sit.. we viewed it and decided to come back inside. What's with the seven health score violations though? (makes me nervous) Pros: I love the bagged coffee and I love that this place is vegan. I'll prob keep trying it... hope it improves because there is a lot of potential here.

They cook vegan breakfast in a wood fire oven. Great coffee too!

The three cheez grilled cheez was the best I have had in years! I brought my carnivore Mom and she said she loved it and will get again. I also bought a brownie , it was luxurious and rich. The people who served us were very nice. Little hiccup, we waited a very long time for our food. We think there was a mishap with the new person. Dude it happens , I hope she's okay. Didn't see her after hearing a crash. The ambiance is loud"ish" coffee house normal. Upbeat staff. Food was so, unexpectedly, good. I'm always concerned about feeding non-vegans vegan cheez . If you're vegan, you know it's not exactly the same as dairy cheese, this combination was gooey, comforting and delicious. Great job! I would have loved to have the tomato bisque but it wasn't selling in the hot weather . When I come back to town in September, I hope they have it. Sounds amazing.
