About

Dandy operates as a sophisticated bistro that emphasizes the intersection of artisanal culinary techniques and market-driven ingredients. The interior design reflects an industrial aesthetic characterized by high ceilings and expansive windows that illuminate the open dining area. Menu offerings focus on elevated classic dishes, featuring thick-cut sourdough toasts topped with seasonal produce and house-made ricotta. The kitchen consistently utilizes fresh, locally sourced components to construct balanced plates that favor structural simplicity over complex plating. Patrons experience a lively atmosphere where the focus remains strictly on the quality of the prepared food and the functionality of the workspace. This establishment balances the casual nature of a market-inspired café with the technical precision of a focused bistro kitchen. Every element, from the beverage selection to the curated seasonal vegetables, demonstrates a commitment to ingredient-led preparation methods.

My wife & tried both the endless summer breakfast & ricotta pancakes. Both were outstanding. I'd recommend to anyone!

We've been waiting to try this place for a long time after hearing so many good reviews. We only had the pancakes to share for dessert & it was very disappointing. The pancakes were mushy & spongy, & there was fried bits under the dough of something bitter. The sauce & strawberry's are good but that's it. It costed 34$ for the pancakes. Would definitely not recommend unfortunately.

I would have given 5 stars but the chicken in the sandwich was bland, the bun & condiments made it good, but as they put 2 pieces of Chicken in it I was eating it alone & found it to be tastless. Service was great, pancakes were great coffee was very nice all in all a great experience... just need to add a little salt to the chicken.

The food was really tasty- we shared the pancakes & the halloumi sandwich. The portions are on the small side for brunch but each bite is flavour packed. Not your average brunch place . Cute interior too.

What an amazing brunch spot! 5/5 & not even exaggerating. Yes you have to wait in line since it's super popular. Be there early, they open at 10 & there's already a line. We ordered the fried chicken sandwich, fingerlings potatoes & the ricotta pancakes. Everything is so delicious & made to perfection! The waiter was friendly & sweet. The maple lattes were pretty yummy too. It's definitely one of my favorite brunch spots. Will come back to try other items.

EFFECTIVE & VERY NICE STAFF!
Very fortunately I had no wait time, that said, we called in advance to check how busy they were
The ricotta pancakes are perfectly rated
THE MERLYN SPECIAL, UNDERRATED! deserves much more love, it was so flavourful & everything made sense. Happy taste buds
Good coffee
The maple latte didn't taste much like maple
(Very) Fair prices for the quality & portion

It's been months, but I'm still thinking about those Ricotta Pancakes... 😋 The smoked Salmon Toast was also great!

Excellent food & coffee! The ricotta pancakes are the best pancakes I've ever had & the chicken sandwich (with additional egg) was really good.
