*Using someone else’s photo* I ordered The Bacon Womellette. A pile of green onions lay on top of a burnt middle, flavorless, hard bacon bits waffle. It came with two triangles of toast (not sure why they thought bread with bread would be a good pair) and a packet of sour cream. The chai coffee was good. The service at 7:30am was a bit slow, seeing how the omelet was burnt in the middle may be because they have a lot of orders and short staffed. I would like to try the other items on the menu, maybe this morning’s order was not a good day. They offer catering services on DoorDash and Ezcater.

i ordered a large amount of food from ezcater for an event and the turkey sandwiches, cupcakes and cheesecakes were very good but the quiche were all cold, and i ordered a box of hot tea but what i got was a box of hot water and 10 tea bags (this was $35+ tax & tip). overall the food was really good and i would recommend their sandwiches and desserts but would not recommend what's labeled as the "box of hot tea". the quiche is actually really good if you warm it up but because this was for an event and i ordered so many i didn't have the capacity to heat them up.

Ordered 2 of the hickory smoked bacon burrito, both pictured. It should be called an egg burrito. There’s next to no bacon, at first I thought it was forgotten. But it’s just tiny specks of it and you can’t taste the flavour of bacon at all. The hash was cold, as if it was made long before the burritos and there was a hair on my hash. I would never order from here again.

Refuses to sell turkey or hard boiled eggs. They have a giant pile of both but won’t sell them without bread or waffles. No gluten free options which some of us cannot eat (gluten = wheat). Beyond rude given i offered to pay anything for their food and they have it laying on their counter but won’t sell it without something I’m allergic to.

Dined in house for breakfast. It was quiet, so I was able to get some work done while having breakfast. The burrito was delicious. I absolutely loved the Lillian coffee drink. I had that in two different day

Had to fight off, obvious, baby flies new gnats something is rotten here and hatching flies, and the most comfortable seat in the place was occupied by one of the employees for most of my visit. The food was OK but overprocessed and I don’t like having a battle of flies.

Cute place and convenient location but ordered a latte that was filled halfway. I had to get a second coffee elsewhere. Quite disappointing so won’t be coming back due to this and also telling everyone in our office to avoid this place.

Finallyyyyy a mom and pop coffee shop near my work that's open early and serves breakfast items! I get to work around 7am and most places don't open until 8 or 9. I'm obsessed with the Lillian latte (lavender vanilla) and will get it every time! Tried a few of their other lattes and they weren't as good as the Lillian. I also love their chicken apple sausage breakfast burrito. Service is always super fast and also friendly. Prices are a little steep but I'd rather support a small business than Starbucks or Peet's any day!
