So cute, love the decor...only wish they had an outside patio/seating area. Food is always great. We were the last 2 ppl there and it was closing time, they just let us continue talking until we realized we were the last ones!! Would highly recommend!

One of my favorite brunch/lunch places. I LOVE the fact that their food tends to be more fresh, unique, and healthier than most restaurants, though they have options for those less health conscious. They have also been accomodating when I request tweaks, such as multigrain bread instead of a brioche bun for the veggie burger and sauteed spinach with eggs Benedict. I also love that they offer seasonal menu items.
