Cara and staff are Always great and the food is exceptional!!!
Julian lures you in with their famed pies, but the hidden gem of this cafe is that they have the best cinnamon rolls you’ll ever try. They’re fresh, huge, and perfectly not-too-sweet. The breakfast plates are great (western style—big portions). Get there early, especially on weekends, to avoid a long wait for a table.
