Sandwich is toasted, crispy outside and soft inside. Sausage and veggie are fresh. Less mayonnaise would make it perfect but it’s personal preference. It missed one star because it took a while to get the food ready. Worthy it but too long for breakfast and can only afford it for weekend.

Tried a new local coffee shop. Had golden latte, surprisingly good! It had tumeric, ginger and cinnamon. I enjoyed it! I did ask to decrease the honey, she sounded confused and I think she didn’t add any. The pastries looked delicious! Spacious with free wifi. Overall would come back to get breakfast too.

I had one of their custard tarts and a Nutella filled donut from their stand at the Summit Farmers Market this past Sunday. The tart was delicious. But that donut! HOLY DELICIOUSNESS! Off the charts dynamite . Fluffy, soft, sugary and an appropriate amount of Nutella filling. I’m in loooove. SoCal, to me, has a lock on donuts. I have found my Cali donut hookup! Thank you

Very cute chic cozy coffee shop! It has such good vibes, such a convenient location. Friendly staff and PLENTY of options when it comes to baked goods (gluten free options available), cold pressed juices, drinks and food! I had the egg and cheese sandwich On a Portuguese croissant which was delicious, perfectly cheesy and fluffy eggs on a decadent slightly sweet croissant with an oat milk latte which was delish. And we also had the Brazilian panini, great options for a hot pressed sandwich which hit the spot with a pink lemonade. Check this spot out! It’s a great spot and fairly priced!

I have been coming to this place for two years. Beautiful place to sit down and work or have a chat with friends. Nice atmosphere. You can also sit outside. Very attentive staff. The coffee is delicious and, if you prefer, it can be served in a real mug. I love the crispy chicken sandwich. Highly recommended.
