    Ham panini
    Cheri P.

    A great little coffee spot located very close to Purdue University Northwest. Not sure what to order? Just ask one of the friendly baristas. We shared a ham panini sandwich, which was absolutely outstanding and very highly recommended. I had the Spanish latte and it was refreshing.

    Skimpy Panani  90% lettuce

    The Coffee is good. The Panini used to actually have a good amount of Turkey and avocado but is now mostly lettuce. Definitely noticeable decrease in portion size and meat. (See pics on Googles review). If you are looking to dine in be ready to sweat as most of the dinning area has no shade. Is hot inside no matter the season

    Working hard and fast!

    This place is clean, fast and friendly with a wonderful variety of drinks. There's so much more than coffee here: flavored lemonades, ice cream, baked goods, paninis and some perfect looking crepes. The place was full of young adults when we stopped in at 3:00, everyone happy and social. We stopped here on the way through town between Maryland and Wisconsin. We would absolutely stop again.

    For the first time, I went to a place where I can drink my tea and enjoy. The environment and the music. I recommend anyone if you in town.Come by here, the service was great.

    Delicious iced vanilla latte and crepe
    Ruth D.

    We stopped in here yesterday for coffee and a crepe and so glad we did! I had an iced vanilla latte with oat milk. Seriously one of the best I've had. It was so good I purchased a bag of their beans to take home. I also ordered a strawberry banana crepe with whipped cream. Delicious as well. The three women working were so friendly and the location is great across from Purdue. I wish I lived in the area and could come more often! Definitely recommend

    Caramel latte

    Amazing! Loved my drink, the staff were very friendly . The worker helped me order and suggested the latte. I had no idea they had flavored cold foams. It's also very cozy and comfy inside.

    A salted carmel cold brew,  the coffee is delicious,  the menu has a lot to choose from reasonable prices, the employees are so welcoming.

    Coffee and ice cream were great! The staff was very friendly. There was a good amount of space for multiple tables and a relaxing ambiance.

    It's right across the street from Purdue Northwest, so it's a really convenient stop if you're in the area.

    I'm very conflicted about my meal here. The hostess/manager was borderline apathetic about me…read morebeing there. My waitress was friendly and on point always. My little table was a wobbly trial. I spilled my coffee just by adjusting my position. Also my coffee cup had that large starburst crack in the bottom of it. Do they know that the glaze protects people from harmful substances in the ceramic leaching into the coffee? The coffee was very rich and tasty though. My wait time and my food were great. It was well plated as well. So the kitchen staff did a good job. Even the hash browns were how I like them. I was just so turned off by other issues that it was hard to enjoy the food. What a frustrating experience! Based on the service staff I would give them another try but based on maintenance and upkeep issues and management attitudes probably not! I cannot recommend this establishment, unfortunately. I am hesitant to return myself.

Our table was dirty/sticky/crumby when we sat down, the busser wiped only a portion of the table when he should have wiped the entire table clean. We saw ants near the window & on the floor. Waitress was kind, but didn't offer up much (ask us if we wanted coffee, other drinks, etc). Water glass was dirty at the bottom. Food came out hot, but chicken (chicken sandwich) was undercooked on the thicker end of the breast. We did mention this and they did comp us which was nice. This place is family-friendly however there is no changing table for babies/those in diapers. Food was fine, place was fine, but probably won't be back.

    The breakfast taco alone would be worth making the hour trip from my house, and it was the least…read moreremarkable thing I had here. Normally, "the best x in my life" is a rare experience. And yet I had the best chilaquiles, the best biscuits and gravy and the best breakfast taco of my life here all in the same sitting. Everything I had was an intentional and successful refinement of a North American classic. Best brunch ever. The owner was working. He's charming, interesting and very intentional about his cuisine. It shows in both the product and his discussion of it, which he offers freely. The other staff were also very attentive, wonderfully friendly and extremely helpful. The space is exactly what I'd expect given the food and people in it: charming, eclectic and comfortable. They also have regular live music. I haven't been back for that yet. Given how outstanding everything else I've experienced here was, I'm sure it will be top notch. Absolutely come here. You'll be back, too.

The food selection, preparation, taste and service was outstanding . I especially enjoyed the gravy and corn bread-biscuit item. Yumm. Lovely, spacious ambience. Spotlessly clean all around! Lovely flooring- and the ladies room had a beautiful fireplace. Really! I'd go back with a "sprint" in a moment. (In regular non-bike vernacular meaning "I'd go back in a heartbeat!")

I called right after I seen this and a different person on the phone answered & said I could still come in no issue as long as it's before 2:30pm. I told them what happened and they said the hostess did not know what I was talking about (trying to play it off) and claimed they only told me the business hours, not that I couldn't come in. Why would I lie about this? & if that was the case then why didn't she stop me from leaving? If I wanted the hours I would've called or looked on Google. But no, as I was going up the stairs the host had came to talk to me in the front entrance part of the restaurant before I could even enter the main door. Shame, I liked going here and as a table of 1 I would be pretty quick, about 30-40 mins in and out. Not sure why they didn't want to seat me vs the other group, and I probably wouldn't like to know the answer either. I typically tip more than half the price of my meal since the bill isn't much for one person, but I will take my money elsewhere then. For the owner, the host was the one on 04/12/2026 working at the time I stated above. They were a young female, with glasses, and medium cut hair. Not sure of their name.

The menu covers breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, with what you want when you want, freshly prepared. I ordered a Mexican omelette with jalapeños on the side, and it was bursting with flavor. The biscuits and gravy were fluffy and soft. The sauce was creamy and delicious, with chunks of sausage. It's not my favorite type of sausage gravy, but it was perfect. The cottage cheese was cottage cheese.

Today she decided there was no way they would be able to mess up her order so we ordered from here again. And of course it was messed up. She gave up meat for lent and ordered fettuccine Alfredo and they added chicken even tho she specifically said no chicken. Then my omelette the cheese wasn't fully mixed into the eggs so 3/4 of the eggs had no cheese and then I had a clump of cheese at the end. And the worst was the salad it had a hair in it and bad cucumbers. I get it mistakes happen and stuff so we decided to ask for refunds for the salad and Alfredo since those were inedible and they said they can give us new food or store credit. Honestly I don't ever want to eat there again with that poor customer service to not issue a refund when they made the mistakes. That's just bad management.
