Tasty brunch food in an eclectic vibe setting. The breakfast burrito might be the best I've ever had; others I've had were bland. This one adds a deliciously flavorful salsa inside with beans & avocado. Good to the last bite! The Bloody Caesar was a first for me…like a lightened Bloody Mary & perfect on a hot summer day. The staff were friendly. I went here twice in two days & would come back again.

I was cruelly hungover. Their breakfast sandwich fixed me right up. An undercover gem.

I never write reviews but this experience truly deserves one…. our server was extremely rude & it tainted the whole experience; I will admit we were in the wrong, we switched tables without asking them first, but instead of politely telling us our just telling us neutrally, we were told'it wasn't something you do when dining in out.' We instantly agreed & apologized, but instead of our server accepting our apology, she said we were'rude & lacking respect'. I was with my friend who had anxiety & this whole situation stressed her out so much she was almost in tears & wanted to leave as she felt that she offended the server. Fortunately another worker (the manager I assume) later apologized for her & told us they were just busy & stressed. I will take the blame to the fact it was totally our mistake, but I still think the server's reaction was over the top… Truly a shame, as the food is amazing. Hopefully this is a learning lesson, not only for me & my friend, but also the server. Again, thank you to the worker who apologized & helped turn the situation around.

price is reasonable. i highly recommend the breakfast sandwich with extra cheese & their amazing fluffy ricotta pancakes that comes with seasonal berry jam & organic amber maple syrup. their breakfast burritos is the best i've had in my life. the atmosphere is nice & unique, could use more ventilation though.

Stopped in a Saturday morning as a 5. The place was busy but we were greeted by a friendly tattooed man who said we could wait for a table or order & take away to their patio (deck on street). We were on our way to Formula 1 Race & chose the latter. He brought our coffee & juice drinks out & called our name for the rest. We had sausage, egg & cheese on muffins & homefries (deep fried chunks, yummy). Satisfying breakfast all around. Enjoy!

I love their coffee🤍! They have homemade syrups as well. Their only vegan item is a tasty vegan avocado toast & potatoes, & it's worth a try!
