Please update hours of operation. Came here on 2/9 around 11a and the door was locked, open signed turned off but google says business is open at 9a. Came specifically for a birthday date with my son so it was a little out of the way to have to find somewhere else to go on the spot.Edited to respond: We were just coming to have coffee and eat. I came across this cafe and thought it was a nice spot to come to. There didn’t seem to be any sign that anyone was there. No lights on inside or anyone moving around. No ‘be back later sign’. We walked around the complex thinking maybe there was another entrance. When we realized there wasn’t we tried the door again and it was still locked. Are there multiple locations with different hours?

We got there later than planned so we missed the comedy show but the owner, Victory, was completely welcoming. He even turned the music back on for us, even though it was 30 minutes before closing. I was initially disappointed because the tea and waffles weren't on the kiosk menu. But as soon as I mentioned it, he went to get the menus for both.We ordered strawberry kiwi tea, hibiscus tea, and a blueberry drip vegan waffle. I meant for it to be one waffle but he brought us two. It was probably better that way because BA-BEE! That waffle was perfectly crisp and soft at the same time. I made the mistake of leaving the orange slice on mine so a couple of bites were orange infused which I didn't like but the waffle itself made up for it. The tea was served in actual porcelain tea cups but wider than standard and were both cute and perfect. I wish I'd gotten pictures.So we sat on the couch, vibed to the Caribbean music, and ate our tea-brunch and it was lovely. There's art everywhere from local artists and it's just a whole entire vibe. Thoroughly enjoyed myself and would definitely recommend checking it out.Dietary restrictions: Lots and lots of vegan choices.
Great spot if you want to support a black man who neglects his child and deliberately blatantly ignores the mother. May sound like a bitter woman, just a hurt and confused one. Hold black men accountable please

My lady & I visited this place a week ago for the 1st Taco Tuesday Reggae Night. Our 1st time as well. The vibe was chill and atmosphere welcoming with dimmed lighting plus choice of music. This night was filled with free comedy by upcoming artist. Food according to my other half was enjoyable as I didn’t get to indulge due to living a frugivore (fruits/plants/nuts/seeds) lifestyle. Also, the server which we found out was the owner too made the outing pleasant. The establishment is smaller and compact however we enjoyed the festivities/experience.

Listen if you want awesome food, amazing service not to mention from the owner of this establishment then this is the place all jokes aside . Let me not forget the AMAZING art work to bring out the decor and vide in the place with a touch of good music you can't ask for a better business to spend your coins at period.

Says they are open until 1:30am. Went over just before midnight for a late night hangout with my wife after work and already closed and locked up for the night.
Solid plant-based chik'n sandwich. Especially digging the the grilled tomato and onions. Owner Victory is super attentive. Good vibes.Vegetarian options: Great plant-based options.

Had a very personable experience here. The owner is very accommodating and hospitable. Nicely lit lounge area. I had the veggie burger it was to die for. My only regret is not ordering two! ? Also had blueberry lemonade with actual blueberries in the cup. Doesn't get any better than that ☺️
