Eggs Benedict with extra sauce (dish only comes with home fries) & home fries was incredible the flavours were well balanced & delicious
The hollandaise sauce wasn't heavy or think it was PERFECT!

They only do breakfast items on the weekends - lunch menu only available on the weekdays.

Great vibe & service.

Finally tried this cafe! I walked past multiple times & thought it was like an older person cafe because that's all I daw through the window. When I went on, the vibe was top. Plants, cozy seating, & great service. I just ordered a chai which was actually spicy & delicious! The decaf was also delicious. They have events like karaoke & live DJ sets here as well. I'll have to come back & try the food some time!
