★★★★★ 5.0 Anthony McKinney · Dec 2025

This is lovely little coffee/bakery/breakfast shop. My wife and I went for the first time and the staff was very welcoming and helped us decide what to order. Sitting is limited (not recommended for large groups) but because of that it has a cozy, intimate vibe to it. The food is amazing and plentiful, love the Latin-style breakfast. This is all-around a must go place.

★★★★★ 5.0 Rashaud Turner · Feb 2026

Love a small business doing well, and this place has been great. Had coffee 3 or 4 times and last time my wife and I sat down and ate breakfast as well. Everything was tasting great and came out to us quickly. The vibe is very laid back and homey. Give them a try!

Was looking for a nice place to go for a EARLY morning breakfast after dropping a friend off at the airport. Found just the right place! Wonderful people, and the food is amazing and presentation is Excellent! I had a Cortado(coffee) and Steak and eggs and finished up with the Chia tea ☺️ Perfect Christmas Eve breakfast

★★★★★ 5.0 Andrew Walker · Oct 2025

This little cafe is a fantastic spot for authentic flavors and foods. I ordered the ribeye steak and eggs, and wife got the chilequiles with a one of their specialty coffees. The steak was cooked well would prefer medium) but it was very delicious and seasoned extremely well! The chilequiles sauce had deep chili flavor, and was very good. The place is small, maybe fits 15-20 people, but don't let it stay you from hitting them up,they have adrive thru as well their food is legit, authentic, and high quality.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Aaron Barbee (A-A-Ron) · Oct 2025

Parking is super snug and limited. This is magnified by the fact they have a drive thru. There’s a few tables inside and if the weather cooperates there are a few tables outside. Staff at the counter definitely don’t go out of their way to greet you or get your order started. You either need to be a regular who knows what you want or just know you’ll have to interrupt their feverish coffee preparations in order to place an order. This isn’t a waitress at the table situation so don’t be surprised if other patrons grab tables while someone else orders. Food was great so that’s a super positive!
