Quite little place in Springdale. They have quite a list of food and coffee offerings. The owner is at the Cafe most of the times and the cafe will be full.

I’m legit obsessed with this place. Got an oat milk caramel latte and as I was about to leave, I saw they had GF empanadas on the menu. I asked if I could order a few to go and they told me it would be a few minutes because they make the GF ones when ordered. Not a problem - they could not be more attentive or kinder! sweetest staff members, the selection of food looks amazing. Can confirm the coffee is incredible and the GF empanadas are even better. Def get the chicken!!!

A cute coffee shop on the main stretch of Springdale. This eatery offers an abundance of options from breakfast through happy hour. I’d only popped in to grab a blueberry muffin but the coffee smelled bold and fresh. The muffin was alright but the service was excellent and the staff extremely friendly. The location offers solid options for indoor and patio seating. Great for a nice break in the day on a sunny afternoon.

Love this cafe for its drinks, food, welcoming environment! I come here in the morning before the train and I get a quick and delicious empanada breakfast and coffee. This is a relaxing reprieve from the hustle and bustle. Love coming here on weekends for brunch and now an affordable happy hour.

Cozy Spot, but the Coffee Needs a Refresh"
This little coffee shop has a lot going for it: a cozy atmosphere, vintage decor, and a relaxed vibe that makes it a great spot for a coffee date or some quiet time. The seating is comfortable, and the staff are friendly and welcoming.
However, the coffee itself fell a bit short of expectations. While the menu has potential, the beans they use seem to be on the older side, which affects the flavor. The coffee had a slightly stale undertone, lacking the vibrant, fresh taste that coffee lovers crave.
That said, the pastries were delightful, and the ambiance makes it worth a visit if you’re more focused on the experience than the coffee. With fresher beans, this place could easily become a local favorite!

I had a delicious broccoli quiche and a couple of empanadas. Very well priced, filled to the brim and they had this light mustardy sauce on the side that I ended up slathering all over the empanadas I liked it so much.
I got a large cappuccino and it was good, but kinda disappointed especially after the food. But the service, pricing and the rest made up for it. I'll try other espresso options in the future and let you know if it improves. I'll be back for more quiches and treats.
Parking: There isn't a dedicated parking lot that I noticed so you will need to find street parking
