A beautiful cozy spot to grab breakfast, the atmosphere was great and I loved the violinist who was playing. Coffee was good and they had many seasonal drinks options to choose from. I found the menu to be limited personally as I am gluten free, but for those without dietary restriction, there were many yummy sounding choices!
A nice setting for brunch with friends! If I could change one thing, it would be to have more gluten free options available other than egg scrambles...

I have been coming here regularly for years and there are two things you can count on.

1) Amazing food; have not had a bad dish yet. Steak and eggs and short rib Mac n cheese are two highlights.

2) horribly inept service. It’s been like this for years across different groups of waitstaff. So, it’s a management/ownership issue.

Just accept the poor service, relax and take your time to enjoy and you will...

Fun little brunch cafe with great vibe. Good food and service was excellent - our server, Iris was very outgoing and helpful. I had the exotic mushroom scramble with side salad and my hubs had the vanilla bean waffle…both excellent choices and the coffee was really good too!
