Wowww this place is amazing! We came for breakfast and were given a complimentary cardamom bun which was insanely delicious. The avocado toast was on a thick hearty bread with fig jam and a perfectly soft boiled egg. The omelette was also great and beautifully presented. Everyone inside was so kind! 10/10 would return!

Had brunch, fresh and delicious. Lots of vegetarian options but also pledged on none vegetarian. Very GF friendly. Nice to get some fresh veggies and greens with the dish. Good coffee, very quick service. Their coffee cinnamon bun is great. Will go again

The food is excellent, but the customer service is poor. There's a redheaded girl who serves us terribly. I didn't like her.

I didn't like the customer service because I went shopping with a friend, but before going shopping, she asked where the bathroom was and told me she had to buy something to use the bathroom.

Food was amazing!! Have had salads, entrees, fries, and soups here. It's so good! Service is a little slow and decor is casual and nice. Give it a try you will be hooked

Very good spot for breakfast. We had the Eggs Benedict Chelsea and the chicken & waffles both were really good. The portions were generous, and everything was delicious. For the price, it’s honestly a great deal. They also offered a complimentary cinnamon bun, which was also really tasty. The place is beautiful and clean. No wait time on Saturday 11 am.
