This is definitely my favorite place to go for a breakfast for myself while I get a little work done. It kind of feels like the TV show Cheers, but instead of beer and pretzels, it’s pastries and coffee. The salmon tartine wonderful and I highly recommend it!

I came here for lunch one day. They have much more variety than I anticipated: good-looking pastry case (scones, coffee cake, and cinnamon roll caught my eyes), a full coffee shop drink menu, wine/cocktails/beers, breakfast options available all day, and a salad/sandwich-forward lunch menu. My plain latte was very good quality and I'd drink it any day. The turkey club was a solid, very satisfying sandwich that I'd eat again; that aioli was quite tasty. The chicken and wild rice soup was a little unexciting and lacked seasoning. My lady went the breakfast route. She loved the seasoning on the breakfast potatoes and was happy with everything on her plate except for the cook on the eggs being way off (very runny, when she ordered over hard). Overall, it's a solid place with good service, and indoor and outdoor seating. I'd come back to try more.

Fantastic gyro. Ingredients were fresh all around, even though it was 4th of July and an hour before closing on a limited open hours day. I didn't buy any pastries but will definitely be back to try them and the coffee!

After a closing for a buyer in Montgomery, it was absolutely necessary to stop into this cute spot! I highly recommend the cappuccino with oat milk and almond croissant. Even the almond paste is made in house, and absolutely delicious. Also, the owners and the customer service. The atmosphere is very quaint. I stayed and worked a bit and there are community tables so that you don’t feel like you’re in the way. Highly recommend!

I haven't been here since 2018 or so and it was really good! Spent $27

My favorite, cozy breakfast/lunch spot. Wonderful food and staff. The owners are fantastic and run a tight ship. Eat a savory meal and take a coffee cake home for later. And by all means, check out the amazing wine selection!

I absolutely loved it!. Had the Cuban and it was excellent! Great baked gooods. For a small quiet out of the way bistro, this is a excellent choice. Met one of the owners and she was delightful. My waitress was super.
