They are most Brazilians but they refuse to speak in Portuguese with a Brazilian driver. Y’all work in a restaurant and want to be superior to a driver?

Great spot! But a server threw out half my meal while I was in the bathroom even though I still had all my things at the table :(

Food was pretty mediocre. Pao de queijo was very dense and served cold. Sandwich size varies greatly depending on which bread you choose. Pistachio matcha latte was undrinkable due to the heavy artificial flavor. Smoked brisket sandwich was decent. Atmosphere is great. Really wanted to like this place but was very underwhelmed by the food.

10+ years gluten free, this is the best GF breakfast/brunch spot I’ve ever visited. Since the pao de quejo is naturally GF, everything on the menu is fair game. The coffee is delicious, and the vibes are great. I’m a super fan!!!

Had a great experience at this local coffee shop. Both of our drinks were absolutely delicious- got the iced strawberry matcha and a plain cold brew. Might be my new favorite cold brew in the area! Also tried the garlic pao de queijo, which came steaming hot and was amazing. 10/10 experience and great atmosphere to get some studying in.

***BEWARE that there is a NEW NO-LAPTOP POLICY on weekends!!! I used to come often on weekends for a matcha and a snack while I did my readings, but today my boyfriend and I were informed that there is a no-screen policy on weekends because they want people to “be more social.” I wished they would have given us a heads up before we bought a sandwich and large drinks anticipating a longer stay. It’s also not a space issue because there are currently many empty tables around us. While the matcha and food is delicious and well-priced, I don’t think we will be back on the weekends. I also wish the policy was better advertised to customers.

I was so appreciative of the gluten-free options. There were easily identified food allergies listed on menu so one knows what to avoid if they had one of the top 8 allergies.Dietary restrictions: Clearly marked what was gluten-free or contained dairy, eggs, etc. for those with food allergies.

Maple cinnamon latte and the pistachio latte are sooooo good. Especially the pistachio one. It really tastes like I'm eating pistachio ice cream

Absolutely horrible cafe shop. There is a no screen policy during the weekend. When I asked why, the staff say because “they are busy in weekends.” But there were empty tables everywhere around us. Multiple staff kept walking towards me trying to re-iterate this no screen policy while I already clearly understood what they were saying. It’s totally unimaginable for cafe shop not welcome people to work here, as that’s what most people are looking for. Plus the environment is super noisy, making it also nearly impossible to work (the interior acoustics design might not be great…)

We came here for breakfast. The menu sounded interesting but neither of our dishes were well executed and the portions were very small. I asked for my eggs to be cooked hard and they came out runny, when I sent them back they only sent one back (although the dish was supposed to come with two eggs).The staff seemed annoyed when I asked for my eggs to be cooked a particular way and even less interested when I pointed out that they weren’t how I ordered.Overall disappointing experience and we won’t be back.

Hands down my favorite coffee place in the area. My friend flew in from DC and we needed coffee and food immediately and ended up at bōm dough and we are so glad we did!Food: My friend enjoyed the breakfast gnocchi which caught our attention because it is not something you can get everywhere. It was extremely flavorful and she would definitely get it again! I got the crack chicken sandwich on pão de queijo and it was AMAZING.Coffee: I got a White Chocolate Pistachio latte and my friend got a plain Pistachio Latte. Both were incredibly good. If you enjoy sweeter coffee I would recommend the White Chocolate version, whereas if you prefer a more espresso forward drink with a little sweetness I would suggest the plain Pistachio latte.This immediately made it to my favorites list and I will be going back soon to try other things on the menu!
