★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jen Lavallee · Feb 2026

The chicken salad was very bland . Fresh fruit wasn't even a full apple cut up. I am honestly bummed out. The place has turned into a dumping ground of equipment and kitchen storage. The coolers don't have drinks . The front cases no baked good or stuff on the fly. The place could be a gold mind. It's just disappointing.

It's not easy finding delicious, healthy, fast food in this area! I thoroughly enjoyed my quinoa bowl with avocado, hummus, roasted red peppers and feta cheese, with a sesame ginger dressing. So good and affordable! Always room to sit down. And they make a lovely London fog latte, with lavender 💜 I love this place!!!

Food was delicious, I had a breakfast wrap which was fresh; they also added some seasonal fruit on the side which was a nice surprise! The counter staff I interacted with were friendly and kind. Unfortunately my order took 25 minutes to come out which felt quite long considering I had a simple breakfast wrap. (maybe they were backed up with making so many smoothies- I did notice many smoothie orders being called out at one point. I also saw many folks inside that were also receiving their food after waiting much time. Other food I saw come out looked good though! ). The inside is quite spacious, with plenty of seating options. It could use some renovations and a bit more attention to cleanliness; this also includes the bathroom.

Love this coffee shop. Great atmosphere like the old coffee shops used to be. Good amount of space, even couches. Warm, friendly environment. Very comfortable. Great selection of coffees and teas they even have smoothies! I haven't tried the food but it looks really good. Very pleasant helpful staff, great customer service!! I highly recommend this Cafe!!!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Darnell Isaacs · Jan 2020

Speed of service is not a strong point, but food and presentation are worth the wait. I had the Tuscan Tomato soup and a Chicken Ceasar salad. Sorry no photo of the soup, but the salad was great. Soup was fresh and definitely home made. Salad was crisp, with fresh chopped romaine and a tangy ceasar dressing. My traveling partners had sandwiches, and both left nothing on the plates. Will be trying the smoothies next trip out. Free Wi-Fi, relaxing atmosphere. Comfortable seating. Nice place to grab a bite and socialize! Will definitely be back to this spot!
