First time here…read more Food: I stopped in expecting to have a hot beverage and a pastry. There were lots of great food choices, including breakfast egg sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, soups, cookies, muffins, and other pastries. I decided on a Turtle Scone, and it was excellent. It had a great texture, was a good size, and had yummy chocolate frosting. The beverage selection was disappointing. There were only a couple of hot coffee choices, and some tea bags. No specialty drinks or lattes like some of their other locations offer. I ended up having water, which just isn't the way to enjoy a scone. Service: The person taking my order was efficient, but not especially friendly. When I commented on the limited hot-drink options, I got a shrug and silence. There didn't seem to be much interest or empathy. Atmosphere: The place is nicely laid out, and the menu board is easy to read. The pastries and cookies are displayed up front, making it easy to choose. There are several small tables where you can eat your selection, but the space seems designed more for takeout customers. I'd come back to pick up something to take home, but not really to dine in.

How fortunate to have this wonderful locally sourced freshly made with whole ingredients place in…read morethe neighborhood! The sandwich of the month of course was the Reuben. It can be ordered hot or cold and I chose hot. It was fantastic and better than most restaurants I've ever been for this sandwich. Layers of boars head corned beef with finely shredded cabbage, sauerkraut with just the right amount of cheese, and thousand Island dressing. The freshly made marble rye really hit perfectly. I love how they still sample their bread of the day slices with or without butter. The fresh focaccia is like a pillow of bread goodness! And their multigrain seeded breads are second to none. Highly recommend this place for any of your bakery or lunch places!

Setting is austere; ordering is done at the counter; food is delivered to the table. Really not my kind of place, but popular for many. Sort of an Ally's Bistro type of place.

If I could, I would give this place 0 stars. This place has the worst customer service I've ever…read moreexperienced, as is consistent with all the other reviews on Yelp. They refused to help the guy in front of me order, he was standing there for at least 15 minutes and I was there for at least 10. In fact, they wouldn't acknowledge either of us in line and just talked to each other or the customers that were seated so we both ended up just walking out. I will be spreading the word to not patronize this "cafe" to everyone that I know.

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.

The first with the American- classic bologna, American cheese and a crunchy chip on top. The Italian is exactly what you would assume - subtly spicy with extremely fresh meat and the perfect bread. The pork pastrami was a warm welcome to your taste buds. It was tender and had a bold flavor from the horseradish cream sauce. The service was efficient and fast. This is a definite hit up for a tasty sub. Would gladly come back.

I ordered a London Fog in a mug and a scone. The scone was excellent, with a great texture and not overly sweet. The London Fog was good, had nice flavor, and temperature. Could have been even better with a bit more care with the frothed milk. When we arrived, it was packed wall-to-wall with moms and children, maybe due to an event next door. It was very crowded and loud. By the time we left an hour later, the place had cleared out, and it was easy to have a conversation.

Stopped in for the first time. Right as they opened at 8am. The place is a little odd, but…read morecharming at the same time. It's a converted barn, and from the outside you might actually think that it's still being used. There is parking behind the barn, and some seating outside. (posted signs about Bees, and some places are off limits, but I didn't see any beehives?) The lower level of the barn had been converted/remodeled into a small restaurant space. There are several wooden tables. What is so very suprising was the large selection of home made bakery and pastry items. They all looked fresh and LARGE. I love a good scone, which they had, but they also had a selection of different coffee cakes, and cinnamon rolls. It was a tough choice but I ended up getting the Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake. They also made me a Chai Latte, in a mug. A was a great combination. The coffee cake was a little dry/crumbly (which I like), so it paired well with the hot chai. The place was busy. And from the sound of it, there were lots of regulars. That's always a good sign. Some people ordered breakfast and egg dishes. They all looked goo. It's a nice place, with nice folks, and excellent baked good. I would have preferred a bit more inside seating, but they are working with limited space. The outside could benefit from some better landscaping, and seating areas.

We were there with about 6 people and, although it was fairly busy, it didn't take long (on a late Wednesday morning) for us to find a place for all of us. They've got couches and comfy chairs, as well as regular tables and chairs for a more traditional dining experience. We dug the atmosphere and overall local vibe of the place. They're coffees and things that go in the coffees (milks and honey) are locally sourced, so a good amount of thought goes into what goes into what they're serving you. We'd definitely go again!

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).

I usually order the Mocha Latte, which has a good balance of coffee and chocolate. I prefer a little extra foam, so I usually ask for that. One thing I'd like to see is the option of having hot drinks served in a mug instead of only paper cups. They also have a good selection of pastries, including muffins, cookies, and scones. Service: I've always received great service here. Friendly smiles, helpful staff, and quick service make each visit enjoyable. Atmosphere: This location is a unique combination of coffee shop, Jazzercise studio, and Nutman distribution center. They also carry a wide variety of gifts, including crafts, candles, glassware, and greeting cards. It's a fun place to browse if you're looking for a unique gift while enjoying your coffee. A nice spot to stop for your morning coffee.
