Customer Reviews
Stopped in for lunch and it’s exactly what we were hoping for. My farro and arugula salad was fresh and flavorful. The veggie chili was perfect on this early fall day. And my husband loved his turkey cheddar sandwich on a beautiful baguette. The lemon pound cake was divine. As the name implies, there are gourmet pantry items as well as foods and baked goods for take out. Eat in or take home. Either way you will enjoy!
When you want to experience heaven get the eggplant Parmesan. 👨🍳
Everything is super overpriced for what it is which may just be my opinion but they should at least have prices posted. Most things are just out on display with no label or price tag. Coffee was probably some of the worst tasting I’ve had. I don’t think it was prepared by the staff poorly just the beans/espresso they’re using aren’t great. The scone was also generally unpleasant and way too strong on its flavors. The real kicker was a dog (albeit a very cute and well-behaved dog) in the area where food was being prepared and served. It looks like this place has been open a couple years but feels like they must be under new management with how chaotic and disorganized the kitchen felt.
Stumbled upon this cute little bakery/sit down eatery about a year ago and every time, the owner (I think the older man is the owner?), is always super friendly and attentive. Today, we sat and waited only about 10 minutes for our breakfast sandwiches and he gave us two free freshly baked cookies🥹 There’s a comment below that mentioned the dog, and while I was also wondering about him the first time I came here, he never wanders into the kitchen or the sitting area, so your food isn’t ever actually near the dog. The prices of the shelf foods are a little steep because it’s the best quality. The sandwiches/bakery items/kitchen foods are very reasonably priced. Overall, this is definitely a great place to stop by if you’re in this little town- you won’t be disappointed😊
First the important thing...Coffee. Amazing! Now onto to rest. The atmosphere is wonderful, low key and straight to the point. What you see is what you get, Comfort food at its finest. Every meal I have ever had there exceeded my expectations. The owner knows what he is doing and does it well, as does the staff. The place is always clean, good music playing and a beautiful well-behaved pup who greets me every time I come in...and waits patiently for a dog cookie supplied at the counter to which I'm sure she takes advantage of. I'm giving 5 stars because it won't let me give 6!
