Fantastic! My new downtown fave. Coffee was robust and flavorful and the chilequiles are just like the ones I've had in Mexico City. They also had empenadas both in gluten free and vegan options. What a nice break from the usual muffins and scones and cookies. The space was quiet enough for a laptop. A cushy chair would make it better, but it's a small space. The owner was very cool to chat with me about their dearly departed doggo too. They knew the regulars names and orders when folks walked in. Sure there are some rainbows in the decor... but you can go here and totally abide as a straight dude too. But that's just like my opinion man.

A wonderful LGBTQ+ safe space, plus delicious coffee and vegetarian, vegan, & gluten free options. The food menu is limited but the delicious.
