| - Same menu as Lucky's Cafe -- same gripes. It's a great setting in a restored, old Victorian house with fabulous outdoor seating on their patio out back. It's great to have another East-side option and I will probably continue to come here for coffee or to read/study, but I would recommend against ordering food.
This time I tried the sausage and biscuits -- good for the first 5 bites, and the cheddar biscuits were actually really good, but the layer of egg was too much. My friends had the avocado and bacon salad, which came with no avocado or bacon, and the mac and cheese, which was fine. I had a scone on a previous visit -- too moist with a muffin-like texture, although it looked really good in the pastry display. I think that's the thing, everything LOOKS good, but tastes pretty average. Love the ambiance, love the sustainable/organic/local philosophy, but do not love the food. Worth a visit for yourself, though. Everyone else seems to love it.
