Cute & cozy place for a café. I had heard about the café on social media so I really wanted to try it. A bit pricey, but overall a nice place with threes & plants & lovely terrasse in the back.

I've loved this place for decades but today was a bit of a mixed bag. Firstly, the wait on a Monday at 1pm was longish, about 15-20 minutes. Then we waited a good 30-40 minutes for our sandwiches. The sandwiches were tasty but I noticed there wasn't anywhere near as much cream cheese as back in the day. It's still a very pretty terrasse to sit on, still tasty, but it's not super tempting to return soon unless you're patient & don't mind the reduflation (but I'm sure I'll return some day because I wanna believe the things that irked me today won't necessarily happen again later).

Their sandwiches are giant & unbeatable! The bread, which is homemade, is very soft & delicious with a nice crust. If the weather is good, I recommend sitting on the back terrasse!

Avec des amis, nous sommes arrêtés dans ce café local pour une pause fraîcheur, les boissons sont excellentes, notamment l'hibiscus limonade. L'accueil est très sympathique & il y a une terrasse également à l'ombre.

Tout simplement magnifique! L'atmosphère de la terrasse est superbe, paisible & lumineuse. Les sandwiches sont frais & super bons. Le Duluth & le Triplex sont wow! La salade mexicaine est énorme. Bref, une belle découverte.
& en plus il y a une geocache ici, ce qui a rajouter à mon bonheur :)
