The sandwiches are pretty big you can probably share one between two people especially if you want to get a dessert. Beef egg & cheese sandwich - my husband got this one and it's a nice breakfast sandwich it has really nice spices in it which make it different from other breakfast sandwich places. Kafta sandwich - this was perfect for lunch the flavors are really amazing. The baked desserts were hit or miss I'll come back to try some more. I wasn't the biggest fan of the flour used. It was pretty busy on the weekend, but we still managed to find parking and a table. People work on their laptops there so the turn over is slower. The inside is a bit cramped, I did have a little anxiety because there's really no space between you and the person next to you and there's just a small path to walk around. Parking is around back of the building, it has signs up that it's parking for that building only. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

Definitely coming back to explore more of the drink menu. Was bummed I couldn't order the matcha I wanted when I went because they didn't have any strawberry or mango.

Really amazing cafe that differentiates itself by making their entire pastry case in-house. It was…read morereally hard to select anything to eat because all the pastries were fresh and beautifully baked with toasted with a rich golden brown. I got the savory pie that was stuffed with an unctuous gumbo filling made with creole spices, the holy trinity (onions, peppers, and celery), and a generous portion of chicken. The pie pastry had a perfect flaky crumb that held the filling together. A friend had their breakfast sandwich, which had a rustic and delightful tang from the inclusion of sourdough in the biscuit batter that paired well with the thick slab of egg and crispy bacon. Incredibly savory items. I'm always gravitated towards how well a cafe can do a savory menu and this exceed my expectations. Friends I came in with who got their coffee said that it was very delicious, and the baristas can make a beautiful frothy and rich matcha latte. Its both parts technical skills to pull coffee or whisk matcha and sourcing of high-quality ingredients. Drinks make up a large part of any cafe, so to do it well here in this neighborhood cafe is exceptional. The baristas are running that place like a tight ship! Tip well!

While parking is available in the lot behind the shopping strip this place is in (at the corner of…read morethe strip), it's not for the faint of heart. The spots are close together and the ratio of business to spots isn't good. There is a helpful parking guide on the street side entrance, although you can also access the place in the back from the parking lot. They have entrances on both the street and parking lot sides. Inside is clean and was pretty busy despite it being near closing time. I came for a Too Good To Go bag to try this place out. Overall, the baked items tasted good. However, it's not something I would purposely make a return trip for.

Who doesn't want a rich, aromatic, satisfying cup of coffee in the morning? I certainly do and…read moreInnerloop Coffee Roasters fills that need. I am a big fan of the Burundi coffee that infuses brown sugar, Earl Grey, and star of anise flavors into this cup of morning coffee. Don't forget to order their biscotti cookies, they are so delicious, especially when dunked in your coffee or tea. They have a really cute gold spoon to help measure your coffee and it double tasks as a clip to hold your coffee bag closed. If you are looking for a deep and flavorful cup of coffee, then order now. The coffee is shipped to you quickly and efficiently! Great coffee and a wonderful locally owned business.

They currently are roasting a single-origin bean from Burundi that has tasting notes of cinnamon powder, clove and dried stone fruit. It's smell is intoxicating and the resulting drink is smooth and flavorful. It also makes the best iced coffee I've ever had. They roast every Wednesday and Sunday and make free local deliveries. Thank you so much for making my mornings (and let's be honest...afternoons...and some late nights) brighter!

Nice boutique cafe with a galore of croissants, donuts, cookies with some seasonal/weekly specials…read more I've made my rounds through the menu and ate more pastries than I can count! The seasonal Donuts and the Croissant Tarts keep me coming back! Best Donuts - Pumpkin Pie Donut, Tiramisu Donut, Key Lime Pie, Boston Cream, and Hot Cocoa Nutella donut. The Strawberry and Raspberry have a Jelly/Jam filling. I wasn't a big fan of the Cookie Butter Donut, Cannoli donut, or the Dot Cake Donut, or S'mores donut. The Cookie Butter donut tasted like creamy peanut butter while the Cannoli donut that didn't have the sweet creamy filling that I was hoping for and the Funfetti frosting was a bit off on the Dot Cake Donut (super fun to see all the dot sprinkles on top!). I wish there was more marshmallow filling in the S'mores onut. Croissant Tarts - Both the sweet and savory tarts deliver! The Raspberry Cream Cheese Tart, Red Pepper Feta Tart, Apple Tart, and Everything Tart are all delicious! The classic Garlic Spinach Tart and Shroom Tart are fine. Best Croissants - Christmas Tree Raspberry Croissant, Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse Croissant, Apple Butter Crumble Croissant, Almond Croissant, and Matcha Croissant. The Berry Brioche Tart was fun to try, but not my favorite. The cookies are pretty light and fluffy, the Lemon Cheesecake Cookie tasted like a lemon sugar cookie with no filling. The Kitchen Sink cookie was an interesting blend of salty flavors (chips, pretzels, toffee). For Valentine's Day, the Linzer sugar cookie filled with raspberry jam was delicious! So glad I grabbed the last one by 11am on Saturday! For Mother's Day, there were colorful macaroons. All of the fillings with the donuts and croissants are whipped and pretty light. There's a parking garage next door and you can get parking validated for 1 hour. While there's plenty of seating inside, it can get packed over the weekends. There's no outdoor seating (there's some makeshift seating around the high-rise building). Great local bakery with a lot of baked goodies to choose from!

I usually like my coffee on the sweeter side but I really didn't need to add anything extra, probably because the espresso is also so smooth and delicious. Also got the cinnamon coffee muffin which was really good and dense. The girl who took my order was extremely sweet and just had great vibes and just offered super great service. Wish I got her name to shoot her out! WILL be coming back. This place was also very quiet when I came in and seems like a pretty good space to get work done and also they had lots of seating inside.

Unfortunately they didn't have any light roast available as drip. The only way to get it is as pour-over, which was an eye watering $7!!! What's worse, they only serve drinks in paper 'to go' cups - no mugs 'for here', because "covid". Given these two things, I won't be back. My wife said her sugary crème brûlée latte was very good. The place is nice, with plenty of comfortable seating. The servers were nice.

I stopped in for a…read moremid-morning weekday breakfast and ordered the veggie egg scramble with toast and potatoes, alongside an oat milk vanilla latte. While a scramble sounds simple on paper, it is easy to overcook the vegetables. This one was executed perfectly, with every vegetable done just right. The thin-sliced potatoes were highly seasoned and stood out, moving away from the standard, heavy breakfast spuds you get at most places. The presentation across the board was excellent. The latte arrived with a nice touch--a small side cookie and a club soda to cleanse the palate, which shows a level of intentionality you don't always find. The staff members were incredibly friendly and gracious from start to finish. With fast Wi-Fi and a comfortable environment, it is an ideal spot to get some quality laptop time. It's a great addition to the local lineup.

I've wanted to try this place for a long time, and honestly, it was a letdown…read more I walked in with one other person--so a party of two--and while it was busy, there were clearly open tables. We were told we could sit at the bar or outside, but when we asked for one of the open tables, we were denied because they were "reserved for parties of three." That just doesn't make sense. We're still paying customers, ready to order food and drinks. Denying service like that--especially with empty tables in plain sight--feels unnecessary and rigid. I even asked twice, hoping for a little flexibility, but the answer didn't change. I work in the service industry, and this is exactly the kind of situation where you make an exception or use some common sense. Instead, it felt like policy over hospitality. Really disappointing experience for a place I was excited to try.

They have different types of baked goods and loaves that you can purchase along with sandwiches and your usually coffees.

The Avocado Toast with egg was good, but nothing particularly special. I enjoyed the English Sourdough bread and bought a loaf of it. We devoured the hand-cut fries. The 4 bite-size Ozzie Rolls were fun to try. The Chocolate Espresso Chew Cookie was moist and fudgey, sweet ending to our meal! Plain Croissant was standard. The Pink Drink with housemade syrup, coconut milk and strawberries was refreshing and tasty. It was my pick from the Strawberry Lemonade and Dragon fruit Lemonade. The Lemonades were a bit too sweet. I ordered the food to dine in and it was packaged to go. I wish the food could be prepared for dining in. It's a pet peeve of mine to see all of the grease oozing out of fries in a brown bag. There were also Styrofoam plates and plastic straws, wish there were more environmental-friendly products. Might be back for brunch if there's a dine-in option.

On my most recent visit, I had an OK mocha (I asked for nonfat milk/no whipped cream but got full…read morefat milk and whipped cream) and an OK black and white cookie that had been refrigerated for some reason. I like the airy atmosphere of the place and they have a nice outdoor patio. Staff is usually nice but at this visit, the cashier had the "Gen Z" stare and I felt ashamed for being there. My main issue has to do with the WiFi. I'm sure there will be people who say "why can't you just enjoy your coffee and some nice conversation with a new friend, or read a good book"? I appreciate that sentiment, but I do a lot of freelance work at coffee shops because the atmosphere allows me to get a lot of work done. But the WiFi at this location has two things going against it: 1) You only get an hour of WiFi per visit; 2) The WiFi is awful and virtually useless. My kids have dance rehearsal close to this location so I have an opportunity to visit every weekend. But I often find myself going to Starbucks (please put down your torches and pitchforks!) for a much more consistent experience.
