| - Visited on 7-16-16 at about 9:30am. This restaurant is located on Main St. between Charleston and Oakey. It is surrounded by antique stores so it was fun to eat and then go peruse for some treasures. We were able to find free street parking on the side of the building.
$36.77 got us two coffees, a side of fruit for the boy, an arepa benny, and chilaquiles. The decor is hipster but not in an exclusive way...the decor and service are very welcoming. I like their unusual artwork on the walls.
$3.75 Iced espresso machiatto- I couldn't help but giggle when they put this thing in front of me. It was served in a 4 oz. mason jar. I am used to Starbucks' version I guess but this really threw me off. My husband exclaimed, "WHAT IS THIS, A MACHIATTO FOR ANTS?" I guess Starbucks is like the Wal-Mart of coffees and this is what a proper machiatto looks like. It was very strong. I experienced complete awareness after I drank it.
$10 arepa benny- had golden poached eggs, coffee rubbed beef, grilled tomatoes, and salsa verde hollandaise. It's the only hollandaise I've ever liked. The beef was nicely spiced, salty, and tender. I highly recommend this!
$10 chilaquiles- A small iron skillet with scrambled eggs, tortilla chips that have been dipped in chile sauce, black beans, and cojita cheese. This was my first experience with chilaquiles. It's basically soggy tortilla chips and eggs. It was extremely spicy. I'm glad I got to try it but I don't think I'd ever eat it again. It had very good flavor, though.
This place is much more friendly than the other douchey hipster coffee shops and their food was really good. I highly recommend this place.
