Stumbled upon this gem while exploring Charlotte with two others. What a cute little cafe/bakery! The atmosphere instantly takes you into relax mode, this is an ideal place to study or read. They were out of a few items, which only shows the quality of the food and the freshness of the product- if they only order a minimum amount at once, you know that it's going to be as fresh as can be. The sandwiches were wonderful, but we found them lacking only in a side item. A small fruit or green salad, or an offer of a bag of chips would have made the meal seem complete. Instead, we went back and ordered a side salad and bowl of crab soup to share. The bowl of soup was a meal in itself, the portion was very generous, and incredible! It was a tomato-y bisque with a little heat and a good amount of crab, with a few slice of french bread. The salad we took togo, because the soup was too delicious to let go to waste. We also shared two of the mini key lime tarts which were fabulous! My only complaint would be that the pricing is a little high for single items, if the sandwiches/soups/salads came with a small accompaniment, I would have no problem with the pricing, because the food was delicious.
Will return with a kindle on the next rainy day!
