What User likes about The Shelf:
I really enjoy the ambiance of this restaurant, as well as the consistently friendly and professional service. The mochas and mango smoothies I have tried here are delicious. It's the perfect spot to relax and hang out after visiting Unity Books or Vagabond Games, both of which are just a short walk away. View all feedback. What Maria H doesn't like about The Shelf:
My colleague and I were having lunch at The Shelf today when we heard a girl screaming near the restroom. Despite the noise, the staff members seemed to ignore it until we addressed the issue. View all feedback.

The food and coffee were excellent. My favorite dish was the bagels and salmon - everything in that dish complemented each other perfectly.
