If only they had just one more person to help. The food is amazing! Even though the two gals there are working their tails off for sometimes impatient/entitled tourists, they are always polite and smiling. Pretty much the only downtown place for breakfast. Service is very slow - we waited 40 minutes for breakfast for two. Did it stop us? Nope! We went back the next day. It’s that good.

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.

The coffee was good, the concept was good, the food was good and the service was very good. Overall, good. It could be further developed as the bones are there: quality service and local products. It needs a little fresher/better beans for espresso drinks. The food was good and the menu was very appealing and fresh. However, it seemed to be a stretch for the staff as the bowl I ordered seemed a bit heavy on oil. Stop in and say hi.

A bit slow if you’re in a hurry, but I wasn’t and don’t mind waiting for delicious fresh food and coffee. Wonderful leisurely breakfast stop in downtown Laurel.
