This place is amazing! There may be a bit of a wait at times, but it's absolutely worth it. The staff is extremely friendly, and everything is made fresh!

Walk into a cozy, bustling coffee shop reminiscent of the one from Friends. It’s lively and warm, filled with friendly faces. The food is fantastic! They offer delicious salads, perfect for anyone looking to eat lighter (although I still splurge on extra dressing). The staff is polite and works hard to cater to both dine-in and takeout customers. You should definitely eat here; it's worth it! P.S. Don’t miss out on the soup!

As always, the service is friendly and attentive. The food is excellent too. It's a shame they're not open every day; otherwise, I would visit daily.

I love this place and the owner. She is the sweetest and remembers us even after years not going. Their chicken salad sandwich and turkey sandwiches are so good. Pretty much any dish is good.
