The beverages include Mexican and American sodas, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and local beer and wines. In addition, there is a selection of international clothing and nick-knacks, make-it-at-home food packs from the Women's Bean Project, as well as chips, honey, etc. etc. On Friday and Saturday evenings, there is local music presented by some of Lincoln's finest musicians including Laurie McClain, Dr. John Walker, C. A. Waller, Chris Sayre, and others. Although there is no door charge, a purchase is required to attend so that the venue may continue to host fine artists. On the fourth Saturday of the month, a Writer's Night features excellent local writers in a performance format. Advertised as a "homespun" bakery, the Gratitude Cafe & Bakery makes its customers feel at home, caters to vegetarian tastes, and offers everyone "free hugs." A virtual unknown, this little cafe & bakery was voted among the top five bakeries in Lincoln and is a great local favorite.

A visit is made even more fabulous if you go during a poetry or open music night. The service is always terrific and you will probably see someone you know whatever time you make it in.

Regular street parking in downtown Lincoln…read more They have pastries and stuff. This visit- we came approximately 15 minutes to closing. They politely informed us that they were closing in 15 minutes. It's like a speakeasy in the basement. Really cool! A cafe equivalent of one. They do have wine and beers too. And snacks, pastries too. I will definitely come back. I love the coziness of this place. There are some lounge chairs and a couch available. I got me an iced Chai. It's nice n sweet with a strong cinnamon taste They sometimes have live music too. How cool is this!! Point to note: summer vacation = summer hours. They close at 4 pm in summer as they are usually run by students and have primarily a student clientele. I do believe they are lgbtq+ friendly. I saw the little rainbow stickers. Love it!

If you want a spot in Lincoln that serves real, local food, this is the one. Everything is fresh,…read moreincredibly flavorful, and you can tell they aren't taking shortcuts with ingredients. The biggest thing for us, though, is the energy. As a lesbian couple, going out to eat can sometimes come with subtle weird vibes or feeling out of place, but we never feel uncomfortable here. It's super welcoming, lowkey, and genuinely safe. You can just relax, grab a table, and exist comfortably.

I ordered the Savory Breakfast Bowl with local sunny egg, quinoa tabouli, black beans, braised kale, house-made sunflower tahini, citrus ginger carrots, pickled red cabbage, and spicy sambal. The bowl was fresh, flavorful, and filling, with a nice balance of textures and ingredients. We went for lunch to catch up with friends, and it was the perfect place for that. The atmosphere feels relaxed and comfortable for conversation, and the menu has enough variety that everyone can find something they enjoy. Portions were also generous without feeling overly heavy. Service was great. They do offer drinks and cocktails as well, although I did not try them during this visit. Overall, it's a great local spot for brunch or lunch, especially if you enjoy fresh ingredients and a farm-to-table style menu.

I'd get it again. They sell merchandise, there's plants, lots of seating, a friendly staff and even better coffee! So much space to work and study, lounge corners with couches, etc. I'd rate this in my top 5 coffee spots in Lincoln, NE.

Cute interior with great coffee! We were a bit disappointed by the food options - the avocado bagel…read morewas good and had freshly sliced avocado, but if you want anything with eggs on it, all of their options are highly processed, microwaved eggs with plastic-like cheese. Everything comes pre-made, so we couldn't get the breakfast burrito, since we are vegetarians and the sausage couldn't be removed. It's a lovely spot so I really hope management can make some necessary upgrades to the breakfast menu - we would certainly have paid more for higher quality food.

Surely they get a few first timers every shift? We REALLY liked the three minute contestation we had with our iPad holding person, but they didnt really give great suggestions about our drink tbh. We ended up with drinks that were way too sweet for our preferences.

I had and blueberry muffin that was out of this world and it was so moist and tasty. I wished I had bought more than one because I don't live in Lincoln and it was a stop on the Nebraska passport. The two girls that waited on me were adorable and very friendly. I got a lavender mint lemonade, which didn't really thrill me after I tasted it, but it tasted just like lavender so I got what I paid for. There's also a little cove of seating for books that looked very comfy and cozy. I would highly recommend this place.
