Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Came in on a gloomy overcast day to place a modest soup and sandwich order. I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while, but they have abbreviated hours, so you have to be time aware and intentional about your stop. What I found was a cozy quiet cafe, with a wonderful array of choices on their menu!!! (I will have to come back, just for breakfast!) They were out of their soup of the day, so I made a salad substitute with an incredible house recipe blueberry 🫐 vinaigrette dressing. Their sandwich was tasty, but I took the majority of it home to doctor it up with an avocado. 😉 Everything’s better with with avocado on it. ✨ The waitstaff was very congenial and cordial and made me feel most welcome, attentive and providing EXCELLENT service!! *** I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this delightful little cafe, with quiet charm and decorative decor.

well first i would like to suggest that they change their hours, if this place was open for dinner they would get some insane foot traffic, but closing at 3? that's insane most people aren't even out of work yet. secondly the interior of the building was creepy to say the least, the light bulbs themselves seem out of date. i LOVE the retro style of the sign outside, that's what drew me in. but the interior missed the mark entirely. i was fully expecting a vintage European almost big city mood lighting, cozy and inviting. instead it felt like a storage closet with cleaning supplies out, and a horrible color scheme and your grandma's dusty table cloths. to be called "cafe" and your latte taste horrible was insane, espresso was sour and the milk was steamed okay, you can taste the cheap syrup in it. as for food, i was right by the "kitchen" and watched as staff stood around waiting for my food to heat up in the microwave and didn't hear a single pan hitting the stove at all. was so so disappointed. i would love to see them remodel, get some new staff to add some life to the place, be open during dining hours. and for god sakes ditch the microwave. i would love to see this place make lots of improvements, they are located in a great spot and could really draw in some customers from the other businesses around if they did change things
