One and half wait for food and taste and presentation poor.

Great latte and cappuccinos. Omelots were lackluster. Personally, I enjoy the 'extras' of an omelette embedded in my thick omelette. This was like a pancake omelette with bacon and green onion placed between a sandwich of non fluffy eggs. It might as well have been a side of bacon and onions with a folded egg. My fruit with the omelette was abundant and fresh! Over easy egg was good. Nice patio seating!

They said they that they don’t know how to make mac and cheese? And it’s on the menu?💀

This place is very well maintained. Coffee is still coffee, not overly modified with syrups creamers and other junk like scooters or Starbucks. It sticks to the roots of a good coffee. The food is also very well done. The BLT had the perfect amount of bacon , lettuce, the tomato was cut nice and thin so it did not soak the toast. I was very impressed, also had options for the little ones so that was a plus .

Panini was a grilled sandwich- slightly burnt. Would have returned it, but already waited a loooong time for the food. PB&J for 4 year old was dry with very little pb&j - $10! Mac & cheese for 8 year old was curdled; not good. I would not recommend this place

Often considered the lesser of the two Cottonwoods in town, but I like that it has more glass than the other, along with a great amount of outdoor seating.
Really nice vibes here. Perfect for hanging with a friend.

Decent coffee and food. Be ready for a lot of bread! There were a ton of empty dirty tables at the time, but it could've just been poor timing on my part.
First off, I was really surprised when we walked in at 9:00 on a Saturday morning and there were plenty of empty tables. It was the morning of graduation so there were a lot of extra people in town and very few options for breakfast dining. The mystery was soon solved.
The young ladies behind the counter acted like it was a massive inconvenience to take our order, the place was filthy dirty and the food was not good. Maybe we caught them on a bad day but I definitely would not recommend this as a stop for breakfast.
Food was just ok…..but waited 1 hour and 30 minutes after we ordered to get our food!!! So frustrating!!! Maybe hire another chef idk but was truly ridiculous!!!

They loss our order waiting over 1:15 for our breakfast. Luckily we check about our order! Tables filthy and crew is sitting around behind the counter!
Would not recommend.
Had to wait 45 minutes for three simple breakfasts. They must only work on one ticket at a time. Employee at the register wasn’t waiting on customers as she counted out and separated tips. One couple waited for minutes and she didn’t acknowledge them and they walked out. Omelet didn’t come with fruit although it’s on the menu. Staff said they didn’t have any but that they could slice some apples and bring that out. We saw others get fruit with orders. Staff doesn’t come around and fill coffee although they are a coffee centric business. Gave a tip when ordering but certainly wasn’t deserved.

My roommates and I usually love coming here to eat bit our most recent experience has deterred us from ever wanting to come here again. We ordered our food over the phone and after picking it up noticed our fries were completely raw and the burgers were disassembled, items were missing from our order and the boxes were squished and covered with food. We brought the food back to get the mistake rectified and were met with less than understanding service towards our complaint. While waiting for our fixed order, the waitstaff was goofing off in the back off house which isn't a big problem if we weren't able to here them loudly cursing from our seats on the other side of the restaurant. When they passed our food back it was in the same condition we returned it in, I'm convinced they didn't make an effort to fix our order. My roommate brought the food back up to the front still trying to respectfully explain that the fries were still droopy and raw. The male employee at the front was extremely abrasive despite my friends even tone. He argued with her about how the fries were baked at 160 and covered in oil and that's why they they were droopy. My friend tried to explain that they were inedible, at which point he grabbed the fry out of her hand and took a bite saying "I would eat them". We requested a refund and left. It was clear he had no interest in maintaining customers. It's going to be a while before we come back for sure and I hope this review will make its way to management so they can hopefully make changes in their staffing service so customers enjoy coming back.
