Stopped in for breakfast. Grabbed a seat outside. Traffic is noisy, but I have an ability to tune it out, so while it annoyed my boyfriend a wee bit, I was too busy appreciating the nice weather to notice..đ
The menu offers relatively unique items and I like that. I also noticed pancakes can be made gluten free for you celiacs out there. I ordered the corned beef hash, he ordered the Boulder, and together we ordered cinnamon sugar & lemon donut bites. Half cafe latte for his drink, which he enjoyed.
Donuts came out first. Cake donuts. Tasty. The lemon on the other hand.... đ Tasted a bit like applesauce with an over amount of lemon extract thrown in. I didn't like it at all. We both enjoyed the cinnamon.
E enjoyed his Boulder.
As for my hash.... It appeared, and tasted like, it was leftover from yesterday and reheated. The eggs were cooked well, but the potatoes were shriveled and hard as a rock. See side by side photo of one of his potatoes next to one of mine. There is another picture of my potatoes up close, but I didn't have a way of showing just how hard they were. The beef, though quite hard and dry, was tasty mixed with the egg and singular onion piece.
Our waiter was pleasant, attentive, and knowledgeable.
This place is so cute! What a great little neighborhood coffee shop! Reasonably priced drinks and food (I say that in comparison to coffee shops in Platt Park nearby). They also sell bottles of wine, spirits, and beer, like a little neighborhood convenience store. Cool ambience inside and out. I will be back! Hoping for some gluten free pizza crust on the menu soon!
