  • 5★ Great spot for a good breakfast. Very spacious and clean patio. The coffees are great. I loved the breakfast burrito. My wife enjoyed the Maple sandwich and my daughter was very pleased by her breakfast quesadilla. — Ken Launus
  • 5★ Loved the spacious upstairs area — perfect spot to sit, relax, work a bit, or catch up with friends. There’s plenty of seating, and the atmosphere feels open and inviting. Really liked the “make your own salad” setup, plus there’s a great selection of sandwiches to choose from. I went for the beef — Asif Rehmani
