I stopped in for lunch for the first time today. The owner was behind the counter and was very helpful in recommending items off their menu and letting me know which items were gluten free. They have a very nice selection of light lunch items and bakery items. I tried the avocado toast and gingerbread latte and both were delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and clean.
