An unexpected gem in an area that doesn’t have much to offer for foodies! My friend and I meet here- it’s a halfway point between our respective homes (Lancaster and West Chester) Everything I’ve had has been great. Vegetarian options available. Cute and spacious interior, great spot to meet a friend, and would also be great for a work meeting, or as a study spot. Bonus, it’s attached to a library!!

I order the yellow sandwich, I love pot roast ,I asked to delete the cheddar cheese. It also comes with caramelized onions. The old commercial for Wendy's where's the the beef certainly was the case with this sandwich. Over priced, the young lady who took our order was very nice. Unfortunately I won't be back to expensive for what you get. Trust me I understand cost but $15 bucks for 2 to 3 onouces of meat ! Oh the sandwich came with chips alot. Maybe more meat and not so many chips.

We LOVE this cafe! Lovely atmosphere, very friendly people, gracious service, great coffee creations, and wonderful interesting food options for breakfast and lunch! I love the little touches like a carafe of cold water brought to the table, sofas and comfy chairs if you want to have a chat and coffee by the fireplace, and live-edge tables! They don't hurry you out, so it's my go-to to meet up with friends. Just be mindful of the closing time. There is also outside seating available.

I absolutely loved the cozy atmosphere, delicious coffee, and the chicken wrap was simply outstanding! Adding avocado and onion to it took the flavors to a whole new level. It was a truly delightful experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a perfect combination of great food and a wonderful ambiance.

We have eaten at Houston a few times in the past and had good experiences. Not sure what changed since then but the food was a disappointing. My wife and I ordered the Carolina Melt and Texas Melt. The "melts" were closer to a cold cut sandwich than a melt. The bread on both, was warm but not toasted at all and the cheese wasn't even melted. So not exactly a "melt"! The chicken in the Carolina was tough and chewy. However, the service was good, staff was friendly and atmosphere was great. As a restaurant owner myself, I realize that consistency out of the kitchen can be one of the biggest challenges, but also feel this is the most important to keep people coming back.

I met my mother at this restaurant for lunch and when we arrived, they told us the grill was not open until 3pm. I checked their web site and social media before visiting and saw no alerts about this. Not sure I will give them another chance.

Had dinner with the family tonight and had to wait on our food for 45 minutes. The fries came out burnt and cold. The drinks are amazing but food overall not the best. Very disappointing as this was a local spot we came for special occasions the last few years

Closing is at 2:00. We walked in at 1:33. They pulled the menus at 1:30, and wouldn’t serve us. Very disappointed.

I had a hard time finding this place because Google Maps takes you to a church/school, and I think this cafe loses business because of that. Otherwise, the coffee is decent but the espresso has a bitter and burnt taste (they aren't busy so I suspect it's because of old coffee bean usage, if it's a weekend it may be better). I didn't get any food, but that seems to be their claim to fame versus drinks.My only qualm is that the drink I ordered was definitely not what I got. I ordered a Longhorn, which comes with marshmallow, chocolate, and toasted marshmallow on top. Instead, I was given an iced mocha with what seems to be no marshmallow at all. I wouldn't be upset if I would have notified of this change, but I expected a signature drink--not an iced mocha.Otherwise, the atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. If this cafe can narrow in their drink performance, I can definitely see them becoming more prominent!

Love Exploring

Beautiful Cafe with salads, coffees and sandwiches. I love the atmosphere for lunch.
