The atmosphere is perfect whether you're looking for a cozy place to get some work done or just want to sit, relax, and people-watch with a coffee in hand. Their menu has a great variety of coffee options, and the flavors are thoughtfully crafted--you can tell they really care about quality. On top of that, they offer an impressive selection of specialty baked goods that feel both unique and indulgent. Everything I've tried has been fresh and delicious. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great coffee, amazing pastries, and a warm, inviting vibe.

This is a great little bakery that packs a punch! We stopped here for a quick bite between visiting…read moreErnest Hemingway birthplace and starting our Frank Lloyd Wright heritage tour. It was perfect for a quick bite. There were amazing baked goods on display and we chose the kale salad scone, rosemary apricot scone, and pimento biscuit sandwich. All baked goods are beautiful and generously sized. All were delicious and unique. The cafe also has a full compliment of coffee drinks, but as it was a hot day we chose iced tea. I had an Arnold Palmer. There is self serve water as well. The selection is limited to baked goods only. We didn't try the cookies or cakes, but they looked amazing. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating in a small area surrounding potted plants making for an inviting setting with limited space. The staff are efficient and calm. If there is a line, as we were told there usually is, it moves quickly. I recommend this spot for a sweet or savory bite.

Second chances are not always a good idea.. I should have…read morefollowed my gut. So the first time I came in to give them a try I got a cupcake and croissant warm, my wife got a fancy coffee and some egg thing. She was happy with her order other than the iced coffee came hot.. so not really what she ordered after the long wait we didn't want to wait any longer. My order on the other hand was quite a disappointment, to me a fresh croissant should be light flaky and fluffy hot. This one .. this one was more like it was made at a beef shop it was flatted out and soggy.. I think it was over cooked in the electro zapper.. aka the food killer microwave.. just what I wanted to over pay for some microwaved slab of dough..thanks.. Now.. let's get to the second chance before reviews.. Wife ordered an iced coffee, I ordered a few donut holes.. The vanilla glazed was a wreck, dried out, stale, hard.. this should have been tossed out.. Let's try the chocolate.. meh, almost dried as bad but the after taste was meh.. like cooking oil. My wife's coffee showed up hot.. after like 15 minutes wait.. overall this place is meh.. should have stuck with Starbucks or Dunkin even.. Cleanliness was also a question.. enjoy the pictures of the semi busy place with a long wait and dirty floors/tables/chairs.. wonder what the back of the house looks like..

There are items if you're interested in a small bite as well as heartier options if you're more hungry. As someone that does not drink coffee, I enjoy their teas as well as their matcha beverages. You can't go wrong. As for the price ranges, it's affordable but expect to spend maybe $9-14 per person should you grab a bite and beverage. One additional cool thing is that they're a bakery so there's the option to grab some grocery items to take home.

We were greeted right away and everyone was super knowledgeable. But honestly, the best part was feeling included. I know it's a first world problem, but most places don't have many options for people with allergies. Here, it didn't feel like a single random gluten or nut free item tucked into a menu full of things we couldn't have. There was real variety, and that meant a lot to us. Thank you for making our Sunday!

Their baristas were very helpful and friendly, and their baked goods looked (and later tasted) delicious. I was pleased with my scone.

Pro tip- they have a couple of gluten free options and are also closed on Tuesdays.
