Inside, there are numerous seating areas for different-sized groups, spread across several "rooms" that give you a sense of privacy. Large front windows let in plenty of natural light, making the space feel open and bright. We arrived right around noon, just as the lunch crowd was filling in. There was a short line that moved quickly. Service was friendly and helpful while we placed our order. We decided on the Brie Salad and the Avocado Toast, along with a Lemonade and a London Fog Tea Latte. I gave them my special instructions for the latte (a little lavender, a little vanilla, extra foam, in a mug), and they were happy to make it exactly as requested. Orders come with a number, and the staff delivers your food right to your table. The wait was short before our food arrived, and the entire meal was excellent. My Avocado Toast was a treat -- layered with toast, cream cheese (yes, cream cheese!), avocado, and feta on top. It was so good as is, but next time I'll ask if they can add a poached egg on top -- that would make it even more amazing. A great first-time experience here. I'd definitely come back for breakfast (or maybe try another lunch).

First time at this location. It's a nice spot in downtown Oconomowoc. No street parking here, but…read morethere are a couple of public parking lots close by. A couple of small café tables out front. Big glass windows let in lots of natural light. Inside, there are tables for small groups along with a couch. It has a nice, casual feel. Came with a friend early in the morning. Got a friendly greeting from the barista. Ordered a London Fog Tea Latte (a little lavender, a little vanilla, extra foam). They don't serve drinks in mugs, so I had to settle for a paper cup (not my favorite). They have a large assortment of croissants to choose from -- I picked the Blueberry Cream. They didn't have other bakery items (no muffins, no scones). There was only one person working, but they did a good job keeping up with the slow stream of customers. They seemed to handle the rush just fine, with a pleasant smile for everyone. The drinks and pastries were very good. Most people who came in got their drinks to go, but a few stayed inside. The noise level was good, which made for a nice conversation. Nice place.

I had some time to kill while waiting to pick up someone, I was in town visiting from CA and…read morethought, I really need caffeine. Yelped a few places that were close to where I was and this one popped up. Super cute little place, I could have purchased way too much. They have lots of fresh coffee, beans and espresso beans and honey and all sorts of goodies, so I check out the menu and immediately focus in on the Montecristo. I haven't had one in quite a while so I thought you know what, why not, I'll take the Montecristo and I'll also try a piece of coffee cake sitting in the display case amongst lots of goodies and a large dirty chai tea. Dirty Chai came with 4 shots of espresso, which is exactly what I needed. It came relatively fast along with a warm coffee cake. Chai tea wasn't your classic chai with cardamom and all the other spices and herbs in it but it was pretty good. It was strong and hot, it was cold out and it hit the spot. Coffee cake was absolutely amazing, super moist and buttery cinnamon crumb was nice and thick, this was on point and I loved it. Sandwich took a bit of time, actually thought they forgot about it. But it finally made its way to my table. OK . . . so I have never seen a Monte Cristo sandwich prepared like this one, I'm use to it having Mayo, Dijon Mustard, red current or raspberry jam and dusted with powdered sugar. As you can see from the photo, it wasn't "dolled up" nor pretty and it was served with a side of maple syrup. I have to admit, I was taken aback, but put a lil maple syrup on top and sliced into it, huh ok well that's not bad, a lil different, but very tasty. Instead of Mayo/Mustard I think it was Cream Cheese? Bread was a lightly dipped French Toast this is where the Maple Syrup came into play. I had a few bites, but took it to go. Came back at it the next day after heating it up in the microwave, again just a drizzle of maple syrup and finally decided, wow this is actually pretty darn good. My ONLY suggestion, the inside needed to be hotter so the cheese would be melted and gooey however, I understand that probably would be harder to achieve with the cream cheese. Overall pleasantly surprised, nice job.

It's a cute interior design with cheerful paint colors, ceiling light fixtures, small café tables, and interesting international food items for sale. Got a friendly greeting from the server and lots of help with checking out the many different flavors. I always like to make stracciatella one of my flavors, but they explained that it was out on this day. After my initial disappointment, I found a couple of other flavors that would do just fine. I got a scoop each of Ciocco Nucciolina (chocolate with peanut butter) and Turtle Cheesecake. When they offered a cookie with whipped cream, I said yes to that as well. The small serving with two scoops is more than enough for one person. I felt a little piggish finishing all of it, but it was so, so good. Would definitely stop back again.

I was having breakfast in town and I jumped on yelp to look for a near by farmers market and…read morenothing was close so as I drove out of town to my next stop I saw the farmers market, no yelp presence so I'm adding them with some pictures. The farmers market is in downtown next to the library that has a free parking lot that was full. This is your typical farmers market with lots of fresh vegetables and next to no fruits but I did find a peach stand. The peaches were $10 a bag so I hope that they are really good because it's about $3.77 a pound. The market had a bbq stand and a cafe to snack on while you're there which I didn't have because I just left my breakfast spot. Nothing really grabbed me except the peaches so I didn't leave empty handed. I saw meat stands, dairy stands, fresh eggs, popcorn, jewelry, chiropractics, honey, root veggies, baked goods, cheese, flowers, soaps etc etc. This was a nice find and a well rounded farmers market but my standard complaint, very little fresh fruit because I always have fresh fruit at home more than veggies.
