I read many reviews from Yelpers about this place and woke up this morning ready to try it. I was not dissapointed! We walked in and it has a quaint, welcoming feel to it that I don't get from too many restaurants here in town. We were greeted immediately even though the line was to the door (POINTS!) Drooling over all the pastries I had to decide what to have...we were up!
FOOD:
Decided on the steel-cut oatmeal with dried currents, brown sugar and cranberry jam. DELICIOUS! The cranberry jam had a subtle tartness to it and added just the right amount of fruity to my oatmeal!
Also had a strawberry croissant on the side. Looks like a halfed plain croissant with some sort of strawberry chunky perserves smeared inside, topped with a crumble and possibly baked. Well...it was HEAVEN. Just the right flaky crunchiness around the edges and once you bite into the softness of the strwaberries and inside of the croissant melt in your mouth. Cafe mocha was Delish too!
Other orders at the table were the Muffaletta. HUGE! My sister dived right in and said it was outstanding. My boyfriend ordered the bagel sandwich and ate every bite.
Cheese danish was just the right flaky pastry with the creamy cheese and sweet crunch on top.
Kale salad to go for lunch...haven't gotten to that yet.or the 6 pastries I left with. I will definitely be going back. Cannot wait to try the waffle sandwich with rosemary bechamel sauce. Looked phenomenal!
Only critique I have is that all our food came to the table warm, as well as my coffee. I would have liked our fod to be hot! I did ask to have my coffee heated up and they very kindly offered to just make me a new one. Not sure if Chris is the blonde gentleman with blue eyes on the floor or not, but he was very attentive and helpful! The service was great!
I will be back :-)
