Tried this place out after hearing good things. This place on the outside needs a serious makeover and almost looked out of business it was so run down, in an old house on the main road. I didn’t realize this place is pretty much counter service and you place an order then have to find a table which they don’t have very many. The staff here was ok, whoever the one guy is walking around, appeared it was either the owner or manager was not that friendly and needs a lesson in customer service. He seemed like he was doing us a favor and was annoyed we asked a few questions. Food was ok, nothing spectacular, crepes and egg dishes, quite frankly Kkng St Cafe or James Breakfast down road offer a better selection and better food and service.

Delightful little cafe specializing in French delights. The serve Tea Forte and have many options to try. The owner was kind and open to new ideas I suggested serving the English style scone to go with a wonderful raspberry jam he serves with other items on the menu. He told me he would try his hand at them. I can wait to go back to see what he comes up with.

We were disappointed. The food was all right, but nothing special. The staff was friendly, but the noise level was very high. Between the conversation level and the music we could barely hear each other talk. The prices were absurdly high - nearly $4 for a tiny container of orange juice and 70 cents when I asked for cream for my coffee (they neglected to tell me there was cream on a sideboard). In all, two crepes, a coffee and juice came to almost $50. One more annoyance - you order and prepay at the counter, yet the charge receipt has suggested tip amounts. We will not be going back.

We stopped here for a quick breakfast and it was wonderful. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was cozy. The latte was delicious and the blintz and ham croissant were yummy!

My favorite breakfast place. Staff is amazing, food is great, tea kettles are just some little morning miracle. I like atmosphere there, you don't need your phone or book just stay there, eat, breath, enjoy.

Wanted to check out Rhapsody's for a possible meet and great with a group of friends. Being a coffee house, I expected baked goods to go along with coffee. Not the case. We ordered a plain crepe that was drenched in maple syrup and an egg croissant that was soggy on the bottom. Their prices are out of sight for what you get. You must order at the counter and if you pay by credit card it asks for what percentage of a tip you would like to leave. How can I judge before food is served or eaten??? We will not be bringing a group to this establishment.

Don’t waste your time, this place sucks BIG time. Their menu is 80% crepes, yet they took 35 mins to prepare 3 of them for us…sadly we had to take them to go. As for their food, I ate a cold crepe from a plastic box, dreadful. The worst part, however were burned latkes! OMG! What did you do to them for 35 mins! And they didn’t even include sour cream! Went straight to garbage. Unacceptable on so many levels!The restrooms are located upstairs, if you have kids, forget going there! Stairs are steep and there’s no changing station. The decor of the place is highly outdated and floors are dirty, downstairs and upstairs.Sadly, we have nothing nice to say about the place, I hope it will close down soon, it wouldn’t last more than a week in Manhattan.My one star is too much, I’m giving them 1/1000000 of a star.

Came here with my boyfriend and his best friend a weekend or two ago. Loved the atmosphere.The staff are beyond nice and they will do anything to accommodate you. It's an old timey feel place, and if you are looking for fast food or fast anything this is not the place for you. Good things take time! Pack your patience, and enjoy the ambiance of a beautiful place to go for coffee, tea, or a selection of different sandwiches and pastries!The relaxed atmosphere really helped me unwind from a crazy work week. Will be coming back again! Hoping to try the cold brew ?

This is my guilty pleasure. I adore everything about this place. The atmosphere, the super friendly staff, and of course the food and drinks. They make the best Mexican hot chocolate! And crepes! If you're looking for something different, you gotta check this hidden gem out.
