One of the best almond croissants in the world is here. Iced latte is also perfect. ???

Stopped in for the first time this morning. I ordered The Oslo breakfast sandwich on sourdough (rather than the everything bagel ) and I must say that it was amazing! The flavors, the textures. All the ingredients are fresh. There is so much detail in this sandwich. I happened to be in the area for work but I would drive across town for this sandwich! Staff was very friendly.Dietary restrictions: They accommodated my seed allergy by replacing the everything bagel with sourdough bread. Highly recommend ordering it this way!

I work in the village and have never had an issues with my order until today. I ordered a breakfast burrito, some pastries and a coffee. They gave me a pager letting me know when my food is ready. I received my pastries and coffee. Still waiting after 10 minutes for my breakfast burrito. While other people who came after me already got their food. I finally went up to the gentleman who was making the coffees and asked him about my breakfast burrito. He went to check and my breakfast burrito was sitting on the counter by the cash register. He brings it to me, doesn't even say we are sorry. Thank you for waiting. It was our mistake. Nothing! I said to him, "I wonder how long it has been sitting there?" He responds with, "no longer then 2-3 minutes!" How would he even know if no one knew it was there in the first place? He was not friendly at all. Blah attitude. The pastries and coffee are good. The service is not up to par with the good food. Hire people with good people skills and people who actually like their job. After reading some of the reviews, it seems like this is a problem for this business. As much as I like their food and coffee, I will not be coming back to this business.

Good coffee, wifi unusable and extremely slow. Not a good place to study.

Thank you to the female barista today! We got pastries and cold brew to eat outside but I felt like my cold brew was 90% ice. I went in to see if I can at least ask. They were really busy but the barista was so kind to help me right away. She was so sweet I had to write my review thank you for not making me feel bad to ask! Scotch egg muffin hefty but perfect with its savory flavorCherry cheese danish not too sweet Cold brew wow that's so yummy

The drink was good but the service was slow. No menu posted on the wall or web. A customer has to wait in line until reaching the cash register which adds waiting time. No rest room. Street parking so depending on the day, it could be challenging. Gluten free options.

VERY GOOD!!!! The coffee has a very strong, different taste so that's why I'm giving it 4 stars. It just wasn't my favorite but it definitely woke me up. My favorite part is there pastries. Soo soo good!!! Easy parking right out front or back and the baristas are amazing. Love going here for a quick bite or drink! Lots of tables to sit inside or outside too.

This place did not disappoint. i got cafe noir and tuna melt! my gosh the tuna melt was delicious!! i love the bread that they use for the sandwich, i love the taste of the cheese in the tuna sandwich, the amount tuna that the use was PERFECT! The tuna is my favorite now! lolMy coffee has smooth taste and dark chocolate, i love it! ALSO, they have a lot of pastries! i will come back try it next time. Inside the store is very neat, clean and spacious.they have table and chairs inside and outside. they don't have restroom tho.Lastly, great customer service!

Cute little cafe and bakery in Sierra Madre. The honey and lavender scone is my favorite. They have great sandwiches there, too. Service is kind of hit and miss, sometimes I would get a very friendly and helpful person who take my orders but other time, I get one who doesn't want to smile at all. Overall, it's a great place to grab a coffee, some goodies and catch up with your friends.

Variety of coffee, drinks, and pastries. Solid 3.5 location. The London fog was pretty watery. Recommend a morning bun which was delicious.

One of the few coffee spots that my wife loves! I get this for her once a week on laundry days, and she's always happy (since she needs her fix or else I get attitude)! This spot is always busy, and for good reason. The employees are always friendly and you get that super "homey" feel here. Lines are constantly out the door, but usually it moves pretty quickly. Definitely a great spot to get your caffeine fix and get the day started right.

Solid 3.5 coffee shop. I liked the pastries and they were delicious. I highly recommend the morning bun which is kind of like a croissant muffin covered in sugar. Usually there's some citrus but I didn't taste it here. The lemon curd berry danish was also very good.I got the coconut head latte and something was a little off about the flavor however the coffee quality was pretty good. My partner got the London fog and it took a while to come out (probably due to steeping the tea?) but sadly it was pretty watery.
