    Coffee in the back room.

    What a GEM! The cutest spot in the area for sure! Kimberly is lucky to have such a cool spot for locals to get good coffee and food! Great options and they always try to keep it fun with seasonal menus, flights, and great customer service. Absolutely cute interior and tons of seating on the inside. In great weather days, seating outside is also available and there's a small room that is available to book for events. Always clean and great customer service when I come. The paninis are to die for! Hours are a bit odd so be sure to know-before-you-go! Will continue to visit when I'm in the area.

    Trio, eggs, bacon, toast. Yum!

    Went for brunch on Sunday morning. We were there at 9am when they opened, I would highly suggest this if you are hungry or in any type of hurry. How many people have to hurry on Sunday? Owners were there, very attentive, made an announcement while the line formed out the door. "Remember everything is made fresh and when ordered please have patience". People were patient food was well worth the wait! We will be back.

    I feel like this coffee shop is a hidden gem, I had seen a photo of their coffee flights online and I knew I had to try it. The flavors are rotating so every time you go it will be something different. The flavors did not disappoint, they were all items I never would have ordered on my own but they were all delicious. I went in the morning on a Friday and was helped quickly and my drink order and croissant came out fast.

    THE BEST IN THE AREA. the flights are so reasonably priced and so delicious! my favorite was the lavender feels for sure. wasn't sure i was going to like it but it turned out to be my favorite. had the verde ovo sandwhich for breakfast and it was the best bagel i've ever had. customer service was great even with the place being busy. if you're from the area or just visiting, it's a must stop!!!

    Ordered a coffee flight (summer special) that did not disappoint.

    Wowza! Amazing food. We finally made it around to trying this place. They are only open brunch…read morehours during weekdays which is a bummer for those of us that work all week long. The rarity time off we snuck over here and could not have been more impressed! Very much a unique place in Appleton but takes you to a big city like NYC or Portland. The vibes, decor, overall environment was welcoming. Food was delicious! We got BYO omelette and Cheese risotto cake with braised beef short ribs. Both were cooked to perfection and flavors aplenty. Not overly salted which many places can be. The perfect portion size that we didn't even need to take anything to go. Honestly impressed. Even more cool is they try to source ingredients locally when they can so it's helping our community. Very excited to have found this place and will be back for more! We did try some of their specialty drinks and will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu whenever we get the chance. We came back for a second visit fairly quickly because we kept thinking about the food! We got some breakfast bowls and added protein to it. Again, this place did not disappoint in the slightest! Happy eating!

    I visited this mainly breakfast and brunch place and figured they would be open all day since…read morethey're a full bar, but it turns out they only open late on wednsdays. They're located in an old building along the main street in downtown. For lunch, they seemed to have a short list of items...and not really catering to a red meat eater like me. I picked the chicken pesto sandwich since I normally eat chicken sandwiches for lunch and opted for the house potatoes. Our waitress was very loopy and loud add seemed overly happy about her job. My colleague thinks she was yelling at us whem she spoke, but I believe that is just how some people talk. My chicken sandwich was good...but the chicken breast seemed like a machine formed patty and it was small. I was expecting something a little fresher, like a whole grilled chicken breast for the price. Instead, this seemed like a pre-made patty from a vendor they just heated up in an oven. The house potatoes were simple and pretty good though. They add cheese and herbs and spices to these to amp them up. I can't really speak for the breakfast or cocktail program, but their music was pretty good.

    Stopped by Mateo's for weekend brunch and quickly understood why it's such a popular local spot…read more I'd recommend getting there early because it can get busy! The menu features classic breakfast favorites, with generous portions and solid quality. The French toast was good, although it wasn't the traditional brioche-style French toast I prefer. The scrambled eggs, however, absolutely hit the spot. Service was great, the ambiance was welcoming, and I really had no complaints. I didn't have enough time to explore more of the menu, but I'd definitely come back to try some of their other breakfast options. Great food, great service, and a local favorite--definitely worth checking out!

    Atmosphere: Lots of booths to sit in, super bright lights and bright white with lots of windows…read more Off street parking. There is a hostess stand and an area to sit while you wait for a table (it was about a 10 minute wait for a table). Service: They delivered the food and refilled coffee and waters promptly. Food: They can't accommodate any custom requests. I asked for extra crispy bacon on my eggs benedict and they said they would see what they could do. It was really soggy and chewy so I couldn't eat it (texture issue). Do not order the eggs benedict, three of us at the table ordered different variations of this dish and were all disappointed (zero texture, extra soggy, no flavor, too much hollandaise sauce). Do not order the eggs benedict on the potato pancakes if you are hungry, the potato pancakes were as thin as a dime and the size of my hand. I left hungry and went home to eat. The one person who didn't order the eggs benedict loved their food. The rest of the food that was coming out looked great, I think we just ordered the wrong dishes. We'll give this place a try again in the future to try something else off the menu.
