We went here twice for breakfast while in the area and among the four of us, sampled as much as we could. By far, the winner was the Eggs Royale (eggs benedict with smoked salmon) and the coffee cake was the pastry winner. The avocado toast is popular, but overrated and the thyme on it felt out of place. The waffle was a runner up winner. All around a great breakfast place if you have celiac.

I love this place so greatly, when I lived downtown I would eat here on the regular. The best thing is it is very inclusive of most diets and has a pretty nice selection of vegan and gluten free items, including at some times of year seasonal cakes and pies.. yumm.. However, today in summertime, their were more choices in the salad and entree bar; including some delicious looking pasta salads, and did I mention how high quality all the ingredients are? Today I kept it simple, and got the gluten free vegan snickerdoodle cookies. They are like puffs of sweet satisfying heaven. I can have few with a small latte and just allow my mind to travel and vacation for a moment. The latte which I had for their, in a cup, making it all the more cozy was divine. Steamed well as for the almond mylk, and had a lovely sweet nutty flavor to the espresso. Very quick service btw. Thats the beauty of this place is you can go and get a latte and nosh, or an entire meal and perhaps some wine.. I will keep coming back and have heard the best things about the owner, thanks for such a delectable space🙏🏽

Free parking across the street. Very fast service. Excellent sandwiches. Incredibly, the gluten free bread is also good. Nearby there is a Gino's pizza, which is a speck for an Italian. Much better Pastrami & Deli.
