The bad: First, it was clear from our server's demeanor that she was unhappy and didn’t want to be there. Secondly, nearly half the items on the menu were unavailable because they were in the process of changing it. If that's the case, why not remove those items? Third, the extra charges became a bit overwhelming. My girlfriend ordered the crispy chicken BLT Caesar wrap, which sounded like it would be a filling meal. However, it turned out to be a disappointing, pre-made option that looked like something you'd find at McDonald's. And to top it off, it didn't come with any sides—fries were an additional $3.50 on top of the $13.00 for the wrap. I opted for a Greek salad with chicken. While it looked decent initially and tasted fine, it was drenched in excessively watery dressing. We might consider giving this place one more chance after they sort out their menu.

With the commuter train just a short walk away, I can imagine they attract quite a bit of foot traffic. They serve breakfast all day, offer a selection of lunch items, though I'm unsure if they stay open later in the evening. You can purchase whole bean coffee and tea here as well. The coffee drinks are expertly crafted and come with a variety of flavor options. And yes, they offer iced tea too! The staff, including the owner, are attentive and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The interior is cozy, with additional seating in a separate area and outdoor options too. Prices are reasonable, similar to what you would find at Starbucks. I definitely recommend supporting this local gem—it's certainly worth a visit!

Really cute family oriented cafe. Iced coffee is affordable and tastes unique. Right in Ayer downtown!
