I'm so glad Shaika is back!! They came back with the same charm, slightly updated.
The Old Orchard sandwich was delicious (& a generous portion). Now I have to go back for a coffee & piece of red velvet cake.

They also told me they're reincorporating comedy/open mic nights soon!

My favourite neighbourhood spot, we were missing them.

Top-class coffee beans used here. Their cake slices are HUGE for 9.99$ & made with quality ingredients I can tell. Well worth the price. Staff was super friendly & accomodating. Will def come back!

I'm so glad Shaika is back!! I went to support. I got a slice of their carrot cake & a feijao (a little tarte with sweet bean paste I think? It was very good!). The carrot cake is moist & decadent. I got both to go, but I can't wait to sit down & try the coffee!

Long-ago review! I used to love their marbled cake, their salads & sandwiches, the warm vibes... but that was long ago... now I see that they're announcing the re-opening! I'm looking forward to seeing if it's restoring an oldie-but-a-goodie in the area, rekindling wonderful memories of music & art in days past, or if they'll be trying to create new love from scratch! Either way, I'm excited! Here's to whatever they become!
