Visited this awesome cafe during my stay in Dorchester. The cozy atmosphere and the delicious selection of pastries and sandwiches made it one of the highlights of my trip! I loved the mexican chocolate spice cake, fruit bread pudding, and the strawberry almond bar.

What a gem! From great food to friendly service and a very cozy atmosphere - we loved our lunch date here! I’m not usually a tuna fan but the old man & the sea was mind blowing. Such a fun take on tuna with the cilantro and pickles. We also got the turkey town and it made my mouth water! It was pressed to perfection and the sourdough was so good. We also got coffees and they were great - I’m picky about my lattes and well the honey graham one was perfect. Definitely recommend this spot. Parking was easy too, we found a spot right out front. I can’t wait to go back!

I always feel valued here

It's all about the food and fruit smoothies.

Love the delicious breakfast sandwiches

I went here on Friday and was met with one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve had in a while. Not even a greeting!, hello?, first time here?- nothing! The white server/owner/manager at the desk was rude from the start — grilling me with attitude and making it clear I wasn’t welcome. There was no professionalism, no courtesy, just straight-up disrespect.

Places like this don’t belong in Dorchester if they can’t respect the people and community they’re serving. If you want to act like you’re above your customers, go open shop in Southie or Topsfield — not here.

On top of the bad service, the food was forgettable. Thankfully, there’s a much better spot right across the street. That’s where I’ll be spending my money from now on.

Excellent food. Service and comfy seating. Get the Vietnamese iced coffee. Everything was yummy.

Great place for coffee.
