    Latte
    Rachael D.

    I ordered maple latte and it was just ok. Didn't have much maple flavor and espresso wasn't very strong. They had a bunch of specialty menu items that didn't appeal to my taste buds. Flavors to add were somewhat limited. I did at first want order macchiato but barista recommend more of latte as said it's splash of foam over espresso. I now think I should have just ordered coffee. My sister got one and said it was quite good. They are located/connected next to a busy salon and it was quite loud inside. There was seating available but we decided take it to go. Limited parking out front or street parking. There were not any spots avail so I parked across street in a lot. And this was during daytime during the week.

    What an adorable space! A new friend of mine knew I've been on a cafe tour and decided to discover this one with me. What a beautiful space! I ordered an ice latte and no pastry bc there didn't appear to be many options. A super cool point of this space is that it's connected to a hair salon! Such a cute concept. I would def return here for a meeting of cool hang out!

    Another hidden gem that I wasn't aware of! The place is super cute and cozy. There's an array of plants placed throughout the place, which gives it an earthy feel. The coffee is delicious!! They do offer a small display of pastries and bagels. Overall, a cute spot that I would visit again!

    The service was fast. A plus! The food was great, portions of coffee very small & cappuccino didn't taste like a cap!. I ordered a toasted strudel vegan strawberry delicious but it couldn't be toasted, that's the whole point of a strudel the crispiness, the flakiness, but it was yummy just thinking about it... anyway definitely check them out they have retail purchases as well. Cold drinks etc

    Stopped in for a midday coffee break and was pleasantly surprised. The space feels like walking into someone's cozy kitchen, with plenty of seating both inside and out. It also connects to the salon next door, which adds to the laid-back vibe. I really loved the decor--especially the use of trays as mirrors. The coffee was strong and hit the spot, and the person behind the counter couldn't have been nicer.

    Iced mocha latte

    Coffee was very good, limited food like pastries that can't be heated. I just felt like the options for coffee felt limited. Since it's a coffee shop, I understand not always having many food options, but there should be a bigger menu for the coffee. The two girls at the counter were very pleasant and helpful. The coffee did taste delicious, no complaints. I got a mocha latte and my husband got a regular hot coffee with cream. It is also a small place, beautifully decorated and love the plants, but not a whole ton of seating options.

    Iced latte with vanilla
    Allison F.

    Seriously my current Buffalo coffee shop obsession. Their espresso is so smooth and delicious. Big fan of their iced latte with a little vanilla syrup. And I just tried their cold brew also delicious. Last time I was here we got a maple scone and it was so good too! There's also a few little spots to sit. And some cute merch you can buy. All the girls who have been behind the counter have been super nice. The only thing that's not my total favorite but I can forgive because it's good coffee is that it's attached to a salon so sometimes you can smell salon smells(hair, coloring those kind of things) but all in all I really love this spot!

    This is a difficult review to write because, on one hand, this bakery is truly a gem. The ambiance…read moreis warm and inviting, the food is excellent, and it's the kind of place you want to linger with a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, what I experienced this past Saturday morning completely undermined that charm. A local running group had clearly made this their post-run stop, which in itself is perfectly fine. Many of the women were seated respectfully like any other patrons. However, one man took it upon himself to turn the front of the bakery into his personal gym. While customers stood waiting for their coffee, he was drenched in sweat, performing cooldown exercises right in the lobby--hands flat on the floor, legs in the air, squats, jumping--completely oblivious to the people around him. The smell alone was enough to turn your stomach. This isn't a locker room. It's not a sidewalk. It's a place where people come to eat and drink. There was no awareness, no courtesy, no basic respect for shared space. It was uncomfortable, unhygienic, and frankly shocking to witness in a setting that otherwise prides itself on atmosphere. The bakery deserves praise for its food and environment, but management needs to step in and set clear expectations. Allowing behavior like this diminishes the experience for everyone else. There's a line between casual and careless--and this crossed it entirely. Hope you are ashamed of your self sir and I use the word sir loosely...

It might seem a bit pricey at first, but the portions are generous and you'll definitely leave with a full, happy stomach. And don't skip the pastries/baked goods, grab one (or five). You won't regret it!

There's a good amount of street parking here but pay attention to the signs as there are areas you can't park in between the spots you can park. I hopped in and the place was packed. I had a look into the display case, asked about some pastries as it was late in the day and they were closing soon. They recommended a pear one as it was always nice since some of the other fruits can be more tart in the winter. I settled on that and a latte. I swear it was around $6-7 which I don't think I can even get a latte for that in Ottawa. They had my pastry wrapped in no time. I was a bit nosy and popped my head into this doorway as most of the seats were taken to see if there was more seating there. It turns out that it's another part of the shop. It serves gelato and I assume it's seasonal. I'll be back to check it out in the summer. By the time I returned, my latte was ready and I was heading out the door. I had a sip of the latte and it was nice. The pastry was also a really good recommendation. I'll return to try some other things in the future.

Located right on central ave , there is street parking along the tree lined street. There is a counter where you order and a seating counter along the large picture window . The place sits about 30 max. It's bright and airy, but it was freezing the day we went - to the point where a few of us kept on our winter coats . The little cafe tables are marble like you'd see in a bistro, and they make an effort to keep them clean - accounting for their 100% health score! The menu has many drinks, hot and cold to choose from. Lattes, chai, boba, smoothies, and also offers some food- I didn't try it but the burger looked great. Husband and I both had lattes- made Quickly and brought to our table- the coffee was Smooth- could have been a bit hotter. He had a lemon muffin which had a nice surprise inside ofLemon curd.

I still stand by the fact that their lattes and anything you find on their specials list is always going to be served at "drinking temperature", I prefer death hot coffee though. I live for the Lox bagel. Its the best I've ever had in WNY. Literally half a block of cream cheese on that thing! I found the breakfast sandwiches on the croissant was super disappointing. Its not on a croissant, but rather a think, dense bun disguised as a croissant. I definitely won't get that again. Love that they have a whole case of macarons!

I ordered the Rosemary Frites, which were a delicious appetizer. I had the maple salmon salad as my meal, and it was amazing! The chèvre was so fresh, the greens were great, and the salmon, wow! A delicious meal that I got two meals out of because I took half of it home, as it's a pretty large portion. Originally, I was given the wrong order that I couldn't have due to dietary restrictions, but the waitress was very kind and gave me the correct one, as well as taking it off of my bill. I really appreciated that! We got macarons as dessert and they were super yummy as well.

My steak frites plate had a very large serving of French fries and a bit more salad with a few pickled onions. I ordered my steak medium rare. About 1/2 of it was medium rare. The other 1/2 was well done. The seasoning was very nice, but disappointed to have well done steak. Our waitress was nicely attentive, as was her assistant who kept our water glasses filled. The restaurant was quite busy, getting busier as we enjoyed our dinners. I am glad we had an early reservation. I might have missed this note on the menu or website, but there is a credit card usage surcharge. Luckily some of our party had enough cash. The guitar music was lovely, but our table was too close and conversation was a little difficult.
