Small breakfast and coffee place. The menu is small but has a variety of options. The food is pretty good. I had the omelette, their coffee, and biscuit (with homemade Jam). I recommend all of them. Their coffee had a hint of cinnamon which was welcoming. The prices were fair (slightly high) for the portion size.

This is our favorite neighborhood spot. We have been many times and it never disappoints! You may have to wait on weekends but it’s worth it. The pablano eggs or the pesto egg sandwich are our go-tos and a specialty coffee with house made simple syrups

It was $25 for just a scrambled egg wrap lol. Also theyre so stingy on the potato sides, like sheesh give more than 5 bites, and the greens are sad.
Wouldn’t rush back.
