★★★★★ 5.0 Jeanay Arrington · Jan 2026

First time here and it did not disappoint! Two of us came in at 10 for breakfast on a Sunday and were seating quickly. Staff were all so nice and helpful, and the coffee and food did not disappoint! Absolutely cannot wait to come back. Got the honey bee latte, breakfast plate with the biggest biscuit I’ve ever seen. The pancake was so fluffy and delicious. They make their own jams and apple butter in house, I’m pretty sure they make the butter too because it was so creamy. 10/10 will be coming back soon!!

Wanted to try a new place for breakfast while in town for the morning and ran across this place. There were 3 of us, it was supposed to be a 20-25 minute wait but we were seated way quicker than that. Their food was delish. Service was good. The server we had was really good! Everything comes out pretty quickly as well! I would def come back and would like to try their lunch side of things!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Dawn Reynolds · Dec 2025

I couldn’t wait to try this place as I’ve seen it advertised all over town! We went for a Sunday breakfast. It took an hour to be seated which I fully expected after pulling into the parking lot. We sat and ordered. The food was pretty fast getting to us. But boy oh boy was it NOT at all worth the wait or what I was expecting. The coffee on the other hand was delicious!! 🤤 If you plan to visit here I would do it on a weekday and only come for coffee. Our waitress started out strong but then her friends or family came in and the service tapered off. My son wanted a cookie so my husband took him up to the counter where they tried to charge him $5 for a single little cookie bc they didn’t know the price of it. My husband then grabbed it out of the container himself from the counter in front o

I absolutely love this place! You walk in and the decor is eye catching. The atmosphere is welcoming, homey, and lively. Service was good, our waiter, Hope, was very sweet. Food was good, the French toast was different from what I’m used to but that’s not a bad thing by any means! It was delicious! Upstairs was giving social cafe, grab and go or sit and chill. Very different, inviting, and cute! We definitely will be back.

So many things that could have been way better. 1) seems like they're checking process might be a little flawed. Was told there was a 15 to 20 minute wait, gave them are number and waited in a car since there was no room however when I went back in to check almost 20 minutes later people who walked in after us we're not waiting. Surprisingly enough, we were next on the list when I inquired on our wait time. 2) in the world should you order coffee and wait almost 20 minutes. Keep in mind we ordered our food after drinks and got our food and almost finished it before our coffee came out. 3) The main reason I will likely never go back: Don't tell me I'm getting a 16 oz iced caramel latte, to have it be served in a maybe 10 oz mason jar and then get charged extra for the caramel on my bi
