    What an amazing find! I always love to try new bakeries when I travel and this little bakery and cafe was such a delicious gem! I did not try any of their coffees or teas but they had a marvelous selection and they make all their syrups from scratch. I did order a scrumptious variety of baked goods and loved everything! The ladies helping me were very helpful and friendly. The little dining area is casual and cozy. I'll definitely stop by for some goodies to take home on my way out of town. Yum!

    Sandwhich grilled/greasy & forgot avocado and onions

    Avoid this restaurant if you plan to place an online order for pickup! While they have a really nice website with lots of options for ordering the sandwiches they got our order wrong and omitted items! With a 5-star Yelp rating I didn't think I'd have to unwrap the sandwiches to make sure that we got the correct ones but apparently I should have. Even simple options like if we wanted the sandwiches cut in half, or with onions weren't followed but the extra annoying thing was we paid extra money for add ons like avocado and paid extra money to order side salads and we didn't get those items despite paying for them. Another unpleasant surprise to a first time customer who ordered online was that ALL of the sandwiches are hot/grilled! I felt misled by the Yelp photo of normal healthy sandwiches that I was expecting instead of hot, super greasy, sandwiches. The photos when I ordered online didn't show them grilled either or I wouldn't have ordered from this restaurant. As for taste, all I could taste was a greasy mess in my mouth. After eating drive thru hamburgers on our road trip I thought that this restaurant would have healthy yummy sandwiches as a nice change and I was sorely mistaken. I was also unpleasantly surprised that despite tipping 20% that the young ladies weren't very friendly to me when I picked up my order. Maybe it would be different if you were a local or ate inside BUT for a non-local who placed an order to-go this was not a good experience.

    Picking up pastries for work and found this hidden gem in Owensboro! Service was very friendly. They helped navigate me on picking out pastries and my latte. I ended up ordering the cinnamon roll, chocolate croissant, blueberry lemon danish. (which I forgot to take pictures of SMH) and an iced blueberry muffin latte. They also had fresh lil' bouquets for pick up which I thought was adorable! Will be back to try other items on the menu, along with other lattes!

    One of the top spots in Owensboro for exceptional sandwiches, coffee, and desserts. The sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant seasoned with everything bagel seasoning was particularly impressive. The Nutella iced coffee was delightful, and all the desserts were equally enjoyable.

    What a phenomenal experience! I am in town for the birth of my first Grandbaby and my daughter recommended Niko's, saying it was my foodie style of place! She nailed it! It took me 15 minutes to decide what to eat, because everything g looked and sounded great. I talked with those around me about what they had. Everyone LOVED what they ordered! So, we decided to go with a delicious beef and Gouda sandwich with caramelized onion jam and the apple salad. The sandwich was absolutely perfect and full of flavor! The crust was crispy enough to crunch, yet so soft to chew that it all melted in your mouth! Now the apple salad... crisp, juicy, crunchy and so much flavor in each bite! It was a perfect combo! Sorry I forgot the photos! We were hungry! The best part of lunch, however, was the chocolate mousse! It is some of the thickest, richest, most delightful chocolate lovers treat! I am a macaroon freak, so we grabbed some Ferraro roche to go. Those little suckers were light and crispy yet with that thick gooey center!! Nikos is a must visit for us every time we return!

    The food is very good, excellent quality and highly recommended by yours truly. The food is all made in house and it is very obvious the chef, yes the Chef, with a capital for a proper title, knows cooking techniques, flavors and ingredients very well. I give this food 5+ stars. This place would hold its own in any city but in Owensboro it is lightyears beyond typical fare offered. If you like good food go eat here. It is not their focus but they are vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, local suppliers, healthy food friendly. No photo because it was so good we ate it before we took a pic.

Thanks social media for doing your job and influencing this great place to make a GREAT drink! Love it. To talk about the drink now... Wow I am impressed. Nothing like that sad 7 brew. I will never get over the whip. Nice and thick just how it should be. Didnt dissolve or turn into liquid. The flavor was lovely . Really shows how much love you ladies put into the latte. Only issue was the CRAZY loud music. Honestly wasn't too good of music either. At least it wasnt Sam smith or Taylor Swift . Close one. Magnificent job Kahawa Java. Will be back.

It's now located in the cutest historic downtown house!!! There is parking in back of the house, and also a couple of spots the street. It's really cute inside, with a couple of " rooms" of seating. It's light and bright and clean, and you may have a nice conversation. No loud music, but just a nice atmosphere for enjoying a coffee, and they also had some yummy baked goods!!! The kind lady who prepared our lattes (owner?) was very sweet. They had some February specials that sounded amazing- Dubai Chocolate Latte anyone????? My friend and I both agreed we will definitely return!!!!!

The master of sandwiches who took my order recommended the smokehouse grilled cheese. It was a perfect suggestion It had beautiful texture, the perfect balance of meats to cheese to bread, and sauce. It was piping hot and every bite of this sandwich was enjoyed. I usually enjoy the middle of a sandwich but this one was nice from end to end. I actually took my time to enjoy this in little bites rather than scarfing it down. They were also kind enough to let me sample a slice of their bread which was really good. They have a variety of flavored butters and a good amount of loaves, cookies, and things that looked good. The vibe of this place is pretty cool. It is clean and the music is chill, and I super appreciate that they take good care of the restrooms. I've already lined up my next meal here. It'll be a tomato bisque soup with a grilled cheese sandwich. But of course you knew this. You were probably going to order the same and I dont blame ya. It'll be fantastic. I already know!
