Went to get coffee with my girlfriend from out of town and the lattes were great. Decided to stick around for lunch and the food was really good! Even took a cookie and kolache home for snacks.

Very friendly staff who chats with you when they can. They are usually hustling around inside and out trying to keep up with the heavy downtown business. Enjoy the inside and outside atmosphere in such an amazing location. Good coffee and pastries, but especially loved...Read More

Even while busy and getting ready to close, everything was tasty, timely, and friendly to the whole family. Poached eggs and salmon barely made it long enough for any photo, and the coffee was also superb. I prefer a smooth dark roast and it hit...Read More
