Love this place. Stopped in to work while travelling on business. I ordered a latte & the Marguez. It was unbelievably tasty. I was expecting more of a diner type food, but this was 3 notches above that!. Awesome stuff!
Tried this restaurant on a Sunday & it was pretty busy. The service was good, but our waiter didn't have a full understanding of the menu, especially when it came to vegan options.
We ordered the fattoush salad, the vegan version of the avocado toast, a smoked meat sandwich, fingerling potatoes on the side, & two freshly pressed orange & grapefruit drinks. The drinks were refreshing & the food was good. The fattoush was tasty, but not as good as the ones you'd get in an Arabic restaurant.
The place looks nice almost like a jungle inside. I would go back.
We went here a couple of days ago. We were a group of 5. There was no wait time despite the weekend. But after we sat down it took a while for someone to take our order & bring the food. Probably 30 minutes. The food was good but we had to ask for utentils & napkins. Condiments as well. & each took a few minutes. The food was good & tasty. Eggs were well prepared. The juices were the best. fresh & delicious.
First time going & i went for breakfast. I ordered the salmon&avo toast: expect it to be bigger but it was very tasty. Tuna melt was very good too! Iced vanilla latte was yummy too
It was quite early so it was pretty quiet (10 am) & calm atmosphere. Not sure how loud it usually gets
We waited about 10 minutes to be seated . The waiter just threw the menu on the table. There was no place for coats. The food wasn't particularly tasty. I wouldn't recommend it
I really wanted to like it.. I could have lived with the lengthly time to get serviced & mediocre drinks (we had sangria & aperol spritz) & the super loud music. But not the gross hair in my food & no apology. I ordered a grilled veggie sandwich chicken took a while to bring out & I thought they forgot about it. It finally arrived & the sandwich was split in half. The first half was tasty but once I picked up the second half & saw a very long black hair, (I'm blond & my friend has very short hair) I set it aside & tried hard not to gag. The server eventually took it back to the kitchen only to return with a bill & no apology. They deducted half of the cost of the sandwich:/ Sure, I ate half of it but they could have been a little apologetic about the nasty surprise. Nope. Hardly an acknowledgment.
Got the spicy chicken wrap & an iced vanilla latte. It was very tasty & came out very quick. The place is cute & instagram-able! also very clean! the service is great & they have very friendly & welcoming staff. Their baristas are sweet & make good coffee, especially Sofia! I would definitely recommend this place to a friend. Will come back!!!
This is a cute little coffee shop in the nook of downtown. Coffee is pretty decent but the to go lids suck! I had the smoke salmon lox box. Very tasty, my wife had the med toast. Also tasty. Great service, fun vibe. Would come again.

The coffee was good, & the food was pretty tasty. Sadly I think they are under-staffed - it took a while for them to get around to us, & even longer to bring the check; we never got any water refills either. I think the place gets a little too busy round midday.
One of the best cafes in downtown has a great atmosphere, amazing food, & cute decor. I've visited this location multiple times, & every time, their food & desserts were fresh & super tasty. I love the coffee & drink selection as well. I've also been to other locations, &, hands down, they always deliver great service.
Went today to celebrate a friend's birthday & our graduation. The decor is adorable & unique, & the food was also very much to our taste. We took cold matcha lattes, caramel lattes, & a vanilla latte, which were all tasty, although the matcha latte could've had a stronger matcha taste. I ate the Spicy Chicken Burger, & shared the caramel & salt cheesecake with a friend, both were extremely good! I also tasted my friend's red velvet & key lemon pie, which tasted very fresh & yummy. Definitely will be going back.
Shaqued is the best barista ever!! She'll make you a super tasty coffee & serve you with a smile! She recommended the chicken burger & it was very tasty! Great music & ambiance too
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pigeon Cafe Bar, & let me tell you, it was a culinary adventure worth sharing! The star of the show? Their tomato soup, oh my goodness! It was like a warm hug on a chilly day, packed with flavor & served just right. & let's not forget about those sandwiches - talk about tasty! Each bite was a little burst of happiness in my mouth. Honestly, if you're stopping by Pigeon Cafe Bar, you've got to try the tomato soup. It's a game-changer! & hey, grab a sandwich while you're at it. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Amazing atmosphere! The food is just as tasty as it is aesthetically pleasing. One of the best waitress I've had in a long time. Thank you very much Lindsey for your amazing hospitality & great recommendation on the grapefruit mimosa. 👌🏾😋🥂
