Review Summary

SoLIT Café is widely celebrated for its beautiful, cozy interior and relaxing outdoor terrace, which create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for visitors. Many patrons highlight the friendly and efficient staff as a standout feature that enhances the overall experience. While the menu offers a variety of fresh, flavorful food and high-quality coffee that many describe as a hidden gem, some guests find the pricing to be on the higher side. Opinions regarding the music volume and selection vary, and while most enjoy the vibrant aesthetic, there are occasional critiques regarding the consistency of certain beverages and the limitations of digital-only menus. Overall, the café is considered a fantastic destination for socializing, though it is better suited for conversation than for long-term work.

I really loved the salmon, avocado, & feta sandwich, as well as the freshly squeezed orange juice. The staff were very attentive & provided top-notch service. To top it off, I ordered a latte to go & can confidently say it was one of the best lattes I've ever had in my life.

Cafe Solit is a cute gem amongst the city. It has indoor & outdoor seating. You place your order at the counter & then find a table, they come serve you. We loved that they had a policy for no laptops/ipads, which prevents people from lingering unnecessarily. The menu had a variety of brunchy-lunchy options with a lots of drink options too. We ordered the grilled cheese sandwich & the avocado hummus sandwich. Both were served on chewy focaccia bread & both were open sandwiches. For something so simple both were flavorful…likely because of simple, fresh ingredients.
The vibe is interesting. The ceiling is covered with orange vines, giving it a very orange farm vibe. Bright colors accenting the orange, including teal, lavender & yellow. The ambience outside is also nice & relaxing.

I am so glad to have walked into Solit, or as so many of us know it: the place with the vines. From the decor to the ambiance this basement gem should not be missed. Don't let the menu fool you, while not a huge selection, you can rest assured that whatever you order will be prepared fresh & leave your mouth happy & your tummy full!
