This place is a little gem. We found it while waiting to get our car inspected up the street, and were pleasantly surprised. We had Nutella, banana, strawberry crepe with a coffee and an avocado & egg bagel sandwich, and all were fantastic. Nice ladies working in there, great service, and nice atmosphere... very clean. We ate outside and it was lovely.

I am so glad I tried this spot - it was a little off my normal beaten path but only a cpl blocks, and def worth it. I stopped by one late afternoon (one of the only coffee shops open until 5p which I love) when I wasn’t feeling well (read: hangover) and needed a pick-me-up. The staff were so friendly it kind of caught me by surprise, and even let me come inside with my dog to order. I’m not exaggerating when I say she made me one of the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve ever had - a simple egg & avocado on a croissant but it was cooked so perfectly I had to take a pic. They had samples of some of their crepes out, and after I tried the Nutella crepe and commented on how much I liked it, they packed one up for me to take home for free. Who else does that?! The iced caramel latte was also a treat - caramely but not too sweet & not watered down. Psyched I found my new go-to spot.

Second time coming here and both times were great! Friendly and attentive service with great drinks (mocha latte was perfectly sweet and rich) and delicious food. Convenient store hours and wonderful unexpected place on the corner. Happened to walk by and came across it and I was grateful to have found it. Recommend and will be back! ( also wifi passwords in the table so you don’t have to ask)

I had a wonderful experience here. Ended up having a great conversation with the owner about community and how we can all support each other as humans. I was there for quite some time so I ended up enjoying both breakfast and lunch. I ordered the bacon and egg sandwich on a croissant, mocha latte, the fruit and Nutella crepe, and the chicken crepe to go for my partner. I enjoyed everything I had in the restaurant though I wish the breakfast sandwich had more than two piece of bacon. My partner said her crepe was delicious as well. I would definitely return and I recommend it to others especially those that love working from cafes. The internet was fast and there were outlets to use.
