Everything was amazing and we'll definitely be back. My only recommendation for atmosphere would be a gate to enclose the kids area. It's so hard to visit with friends when you have multiple children and they keep beelining out of the play area. Other than that, everything was so cool. The food was good and coffees were delicious. My friend and I were both impressed.

First time, ordered a veg sandwich that was delicious. Second time, same sandwich but they forgot to toast, and neglected to ask if it was for here or to go. I needed to go, and was served for here. (I also forgot to mention). In any case, both times, the girl who dispatched the order practically snarled at me for reasons unknown. I felt embarrassed, confused, and unhappy as a final note.

I have 2 twin newborns. They were asleep in the car and I needed something healthy to eat while passing through town. Kaylee was willing to take my (complicated!) order over the phone and literally walk it out to me at my car!! Exceptional human kindness at its finest.Vegetarian options: They were willing to change the salad ingredients AND dressing to accommodate my dietary restrictions — not only vegan but also gluten free!

If you don’t like kids, don’t come here. I understand the appeal of having a kids play area for families who want to bring their kids, but if you just came to enjoy a relaxing, cozy cafe atmosphere this is not it. Plus, the way the cafe is designed with the high ceilings makes the sound of kids banging on things and people talking even more amplified. Only ordered a bagel with cream cheese and an iced latte but they were both fine. The couch and lounge chair were so stained that I opted to sit at a table instead and the place did not smell good upon entering. They only had one vegetarian sandwich (grilled cheese doesn’t count) out of 11 options and they charge $1 for non dairy milk!! I would not return.

What a fun little cafe. Always humorous seasonal coffees and food with fun specials. A go to breakfast and lunch spot every time I’m in the area. My favorite is the Huey, Duey and Lewie sandwich. Consistently good food and coffee at a reasonable price. Dining in is casual and fun. There’s a little kids section, country store like shopping and cafe tables. We often take out meals from here and are always love whatever we get. Staff is super friendly and care about each order.Parking: While I have never had trouble finding a spot, there is limited parking.Kid-friendliness: Great little kid section with books and toys

I've been following this cafe for a while but I'm on the east side so it was easy for me to try it. I finally had the chance to stop on a Saturday for lunch, it was busy but not crazy busy and they had plenty of staff. I only had to wait 5 mins to order but it took 30 mins to make 1 salad, 2 sandwiches and 1 pizza. One sandwich and the salad had roast turkey on it and honestly the turkey was disgusting, it reminded me of canned processed meat, it was rubbery with really no flavor, I didn't end up finishing the salad or the sandwich. My kids didn't care for the pizza, but they are kids so that doesn't say much. It's a cool spot with play area for the kids and very relaxed but I doubt I would order lunch again from them.
