I'm here at 7 05 and they closed its false advertising to post you open at 7 when people come at you close so rude
Truly a hidden gem! Solid café menu with very reasonably priced coffee. Breakfast sandwich bread was fresh and was very filling.
This is probably the cutest cafe in the surrounding area. It appears to be family run and while I didn’t have any food. The food looked fresh and tasty. Their menu has healthier options available, including vegan options. Unfortunately, they are charging really high prices for coffee drinks but the quality of ingredients is really poor. Since I am vegan, I had to ask them about what they used for their mocha to read the ingredients. They use Hershey’s syrup and charge over $6 for a small mocha. You can get a mocha with no artificial flavors, real cocoa, and no high fructose corn syrup, etc from a nice cafe in Piedmont for that price.
Updating my review since the owner was sarcastic in their reply. Hershey’s syrup is not a high quality ingredient. It’s fake, ultra processed nonsense. And if you’re paying the same price for a drink that you would pay in the most expensive areas of town with actual real food that’s a rip off. Do better.
Nice barista. Cappuccino was not great. Beans tasted a bit stale.
Owner wonderful. Food and coffee very good. Eccentric decor great.
Yummy salad dressing & good sandwiches
I love this neighborhood spot. The chia seed pudding, breakfast sandwich, and chipotle chicken sandwich are my favorite items to order. Highly recommend!
Great food
Looking for late lunch and coffee with vegetarian options - it was amazing. Great cafe de olla, really good sandwiches, amazing from scratch pesto salad dressing. They also gave us some samples of the chia pudding and granola which were really good. I was very hungry and prepared to be happy with whatever, but got very lucky finding this place!
Amazing coffee and amazing sandwiches!

100%recomendado lo mejor el café ☕️ super rico 😋 👌 lo mejor muy bonito el lugar
How lucky were my friend and I to find this cafe! It was in the stars bc we were supposed to go to a different sandwich shop, but they were closed on Mondays. I would’ve picked another place closer to my home, but thank goodness my friend googled and found this lovely place that’s full of artwork and charm.
We both had sandwiches, a chicken with black bean sauce on baguette for me, and a breakfast sandwich and chia pudding for her. All of it super delicious!
The staff was wonderful and easy going. I felt totally comfortable.
I will have to make my way back there soon and often. I cannot get that sandwich out of my mind!

They're closed for now. Google said it was open so I thought I'll give it a try but they have a board outside that says they're closed indefinitely.
