Having an Aussie wife and living in NYC the bar is set pretty high for what a good coffee tastes like, and every oat latte and cappuccino we've gotten has been just as good as back home. My wife also always compliments the young staff who greet her with an extra Midwest slice of Americana. Very lucky to have this coffee shop to stop by daily while we're home. Thanks for consistently putting out a great product and providing top quality service every time we are here.

I follow them on Facebook (and you should too) and have been so impressed with how many events they host. They are establishing themselves as a place for community meetings and events like coffee with a cop and large get togethers. The space is nicely setup and very cozy with tables and also couches and chairs. The counter is easy to find and order at and they have a case full of food items that all looked good (donuts, fritters, mini cakes). They have the coolest "small business wall"! Small businesses in the area stock their items on the shelves and them customers can buy directly from the business while at the coffee shop - candles, artwork, woodwork, honey, cups, all kinds of cool items! My mom ordered a frozen caramel latte and she really enjoyed it! I did realize right before leaving that they have hot chocolate, so you know I'm trying that next time I'm there! Prices were very affordable. Opportunities for improvement - I didn't see a public restroom or public wi-fi. Both of these are nice to have for the events they have and also to encourage people to stay longer and maybe become a place people hang out and work from.

The almond horn and espresso tarts are old favorites. My husband was excited to try the sausage rolls and has enjoyed them. The ambiance is cozy and classy. The large windows allow for a great deal of natural light. There is ample seating inside as well as a couple of tables outside when the weather permits. If you get your food to go, they have offered to heat the necessary food or given instructions on heating if needed for a later time. The owners are extremely friendly and kind.

That is a good and a bad thing. It's good for their bottom line and a bad thing for my waistline and weight. At least when I walk there, I am burning some of the calories I will consume. During the week, I enjoy stopping by and grabbing a pastry or two. It's hard to only buy one, when they have so many to choose from. I then continue on my way and enjoy a Blueberry Scone or Raspberry Lemon Cannoli at my leisure later in the day. When it's the weekend, that is when I dine in and enjoy the full experience of LuciAnna's. I either take a patio table which is pet friendly, or a relaxing table inside the charming dining room. I order at the counter and get my table marker, so they know where I am seated. It brunch time, so that also means it is Bloody Mary time. I always have mine with a cup of black coffee chaser. The two balance each other out. My two favorite entrees are; Waffles or anyone of their Benedicts. Seriously, you cannot go wrong with either of them. Plus, you gotta get an order of the, Million Dollar Bacon. Service is always top notch and attentive. You'll enjoy the tea room atmosphere.

It wasn't crowded at the bar because most of the crowd was outside for the views. Which is understandable because the view is amazing. We were in the mood for something sweet so I ordered Moscato and my daughter ordered the blackberry wine. Both were crisp and delicious. The flavor was exactly what we were expecting. We decided not to eat because the menu didn't look appetizing and none of the food in passing looked good either. However, definitely glad we came for wine. We would definitely return to sit outside while we enjoy wine. Oh they do not offer wine tasting which is a bummer.

My current favorite is a seasonal offering, Cinnamon Honey Latte. If I'm stopping before noon, it's always hot and after 12 noon, it's iced. I love the blending of cinnamon & honey.

If you want something sweet, you cannot go wrong with one of their scones. Again, easy to eat on the road. If your co-pilot is your four legged best friend, be sure to get them a free Pup-Cup.

We arrived around 1pm, apparently their peak but we were quickly seated. Though busy, noise levels were moderate and ambiance was typical of a family restaurant. We both had the country fried steak and biscuits, Karla with scrambled eggs and American fries, basically seasoned fries cut into cubes. She didn't care for the seasoning but she's admitted picky with a very low tolerance for spicy food. I had mine with traditional hash browns and eggs over easy. I've had better country fried steak but it was decent and the meal was otherwise great. Everything was served on one plate, just the way I like it, allowing me to mix things up with my hash browns and biscuits. The biscuits are served on the side of the plate, not topped with gravy in case you'd rather have butter and/or jelly on your biscuits, and they were hot and fluffy with good flavor. It was a very filling meal. The wait staff were great, friendly and responsive. We'll be sure to return to try other items from their impressive menu.
