The whole staff was so kind, talkative and friendly even at 9am! I didn't catch her name, but the barista with the pink hair was incredibly sweet and welcomed me with so much energy. It was my first time there and they made it an experience - I will be back! (Also great coffee and atmosphere!)

Breakfast sandwich was top notch. I had it on a gluten-free bagel.

This is a solid little coffee shop located in the heart of downtown Ithaca. They offer a great selection of fresh sandwiches and hearty breakfast items. The atmosphere is vibrant and seems to cater to many Cornell students looking for a cozy spot to study or grab a quick caffeine fix.

Stopped in for breakfast and coffees. Two sandwiches and two small hot coffees - $40. Coffee is ok - food is totally inedible. Greasy and bland. I’m giving two stars because the cashier was incredibly polite and the space did look to be well taken care of. Was really looking forward to this, and unfortunately it fell flat.

Food was amazing! Coffee was amazing! Service was fast and pleasant. My big complaint is that everything is in to go containers. There is nothing like going to a cafe for breakfast and chat with a friend - the vibe is hurt by the fact that you sit and eat with plastic utensils out of a to go box.

Don’t miss this little gem of a spot when visiting Ithaca. The service is gentle and kind and the food is delicious; prepared with care and creativity. Pick a window seat and watch the world go by while sipping coffee. As you leave with a full, happy belly, look up and smile…

This place had wonderful food, but if you plan to sit down and eat it plan for a very noisy and rushed atmosphere. I would definitely come here again for the food but I would probably take it to go.

Visited Ithica this week and found this perfectly located coffee spot. The coffee was coffee, hot and tasted like coffee, just how I like it. But, the breakfast sandwiches were next level. The default egg on their sandwiches is over easy, which works out awesome and is not as messy as you'd think. They do ask if you're ok with that or would like it cooked any other way. My favorite was the Melrose. It had so much flavor for a breakfast sandwich. The employees are very freindly and the ambiance is the perfect mix of darkness and light.

Coffee was good and breakfast was yummy.
It took me a couple of times going here to realize I think anyone is better off going anywhere else, like Collegetown bagels right down street. There’s a wonderful place called Dolce Delight just outside of downtown. The first time service was great, other 2 times not at all friendly and it was a different person each interaction. Don’t get the steak, it’s rubbery, tastes like Taco Bell and looks like a McDonald’s patty. I took one bite out of it and it had something stringy coming out of it, that was enough for me to throw it out. The people who work there now just don’t seem happy but if you don’t mind having shitty interactions with where you’re spending money and having to tip then hey more power to you. I also did not get asked what kind of milk I wanted in my coffee and that was a bummer once I realized after the coffee was made and given to me, but I was in a rush.
