They truly know how to make your day a bit brighter :) A definite recommend from us!

Love this place. Just stopping in town for lunch and then coffee was great and I had a ham and Swiss sandwich with cranberry mayo that I can't stop thinking about. It had to right too be that good. They had gluten free bread for my girlfriend which was a big plus. Stopping there felt like a lucky find. The layout of the place feels a little awkward at times. It maybe just because the place is a bit smaller.

Best hot chocolate I've had! I don't like overly rich, thick and sweet hot chocolates, but this one was smooth, light and refreshing while being rich in a non overpowering way. We had the avacado toast and smoked salmon toast as well! Massive hits, loved them! I'm gluten free, and they had gluten free bread as well as a brownie and doughnut. Very cute, small, but sweet
