Cafe Maresse went through an ownership change. The original owner sold to the old general manager, and it’s now been rebranded to Fika. Almost all of the drink menu has stayed the same. Many of the food offering have changed and/or been replaced or removed though.
Honey bee latte is always yummy here. It’s made with lavender and honey syrup, and comes with oat milk by default, which is nice since we do not have to pay an up charge for the alternative milk for once lol.
Great place to study or wfh, they have free WiFi, calm and inviting atmosphere, comfortable environment, spacious interior, earthy/rustic vibes and decor, with plenty of well spaced seating.
They also have vegetarian and halal friendly options for food and drinks on their menu incase you have dietary restrictions/preferences.
Free parking available in the shared parking lot. Kid friendly and wheelchair accessible. They also have good amount of outdoor seating on their patio. Noise level is quiet to moderate in the morning, can get a bit louder in the afternoon but still manageable.
Definitely recommend stopping by this place and trying their lattes. Great place to get some work done or catch up with friends.

Got a breakfast meal, a pastry, and a coffee. No complaints. The place was busy for a Thursday morning, but the staff was kind and patient.

Before ordering, verify that Ms. Stephanie is in the kitchen. She be cookin it up!!! Breakfast sandwich, French toast, classic breakfast and coffees were delicious. Not to mention the fresh tortillas.

Loved the atmosphere of this cute little cafe but was very underwhelmed with the service. Call me old fashioned but I like being greeted and when I walk up town counter, the ladies were not friendly and I left feeling awkward and very unwelcome. Bummer bc the space is lovely 🤷♀️

PLEASE DO NOT waste your money here. Oh my goodness. I just popped in for a quick lunch and, wow, this place has really gone downhill.
First, the lady at the front was rude, pointing with her finger right at me telling another employee to take my order, saying, “That one. That one.” Unprofessional, but oh well. I ordered a grilled cheese with tomato soup.
My meal comes out. The soup is lukewarm and was maybe inspired by tomatoes, but definitely lacked actual tomatoes and quality ingredients. It had a strange sweetness and muted, almost watery taste. Not their strength, okay. The sandwich would surely be the redeeming half of this entree. Sadly, nope. It was anything but grilled. It looked and felt like it had been held under a hairdryer for four minutes before getting tossed into the plate. Absolutely no crusty outside…just two pieces of greasy, floppy bread with an ungodly amount of melted cheese in between. I never do this, but I honestly could not force myself to eat even half of this pathetic plate.
On a positive note, bottled water was cold.
I paid $17 and left with my water and a growling stomach. Absolute waste of money; I’ll never return. There are so many options in this area. There is no reason to go here and experience this level of disappointment. You’ve been warned! lol!

Great little cafe. Excellent drinks and service and good value. My new coffee shop
I enjoyed visiting this Cafe today! I love that they have organic espresso, and the breakfast was delicious, I tried the scramble with bacon, and espresso with Ube syrup and Ube cold foam.... Love anything Ube-flavored! They were very nice to clarify questions I had, and I've been looking for a new breakfast spot. Thanks for the great food and service today ?
Take two: I came back for another Ube latte (hot)... delicious, and tried the Gluten Free breakfast taco. Very tasty!

Sausage gravy left a bad taste in my mouth…the cook was lacking skill the gravy was runny and needed more flour you could see the grease floating on the surface of the dish, biscuits were pretty decent, but the sausage pieces were not chopped evenly, and very sloppily put together. Coffee was good ? honey ?

Was a bad experience with exception of ordering at the front counter. After we ordered and sat down they brought out our food 1 plate at a time as they finished cooking it so didn’t get to eat together or the food would be cold. You have to grab your own condiments here and there are no labels, so we grabbed what we thought was syrup and was actually honey and used it on our waffle. The eggs were over cooked on everyone’s plate. Pancakes and waffles under whelming, bacon was way too over cooked… I would say the only item I would say was good is the French toast. For the price of the breakfast here, the quality was poor.
Excellent coffee shop in the neighborhood.
Love the coffee. Beautiful space.
