Super cute cafe/brunch spot! Love the interior and aesthetics, with the green walls, dark wood,…read moreand plants. My friends and I came this past Saturday a little before noon. We ordered on the tablet near the front entrance. Some of us wanted our drinks to-go, so we ordered those separately at the register in the back. I ordered the Pesto Egg Toast and an iced Horchata Latte with oat milk, less sweet. The toast was yummy, and the portion was perfect for me. It was enough to make me satisfied. I liked the sunny side up eggs and pesto. The latte was also good. I could really taste the cinnamon in the drink. Even with less sweetness, it was still relatively sweet so I'm glad I adjusted it.

They will call your name when the food is ready for you to go pick it up in the back Food and Drinks: - Hojicha Latte: delicious. Anytime a place sells a hojicha latte, I'm all over it.

It was also very filling Miscellaneous: - Parking is available via metered street parking (free on Sundays or weekdays after 6pm) - Indoor and outdoor seating available - Good for pairs and smaller groups (might be able to get away with pushing two tables other to fit 6-8). Most tables fit 4 - Lots of food and drink options - Casual ambiance - some people were working and some were brunching

Yet another boba chain has hit the bay...! This time, Tomo Tea-- not bad! Always good to have…read moreoptions :P My partner and I ordered online and picked up at the door, so this is purely for the drinks since we didn't sit in. WINTER MELON MILK TEA (light ice, brown sugar boba): Not too sweet! Kind of a bummer they can't adjust sweetness, but at least it's balanced well. The wintermelon flavor is deliciously strong. The boba though... Overcooked and mushy texture with very little flavor. My partner was fine with his usual mango sago. I think we need to try their coffees and specialty drinks next (looking at the Pandan Milk Tea and Phin Egg Coffee...)

It wasn't overly sweet and still maintained that earthy matcha flavor that many places tend to lose when they jump on the matcha trend. My husband ordered the Vanilla Bean Caramel Latte, also from the seasonal menu, and loved it so much that he said this is now his favorite coffee spot. Safe to say, whenever we're back in town, we'll definitely be returning!

The seating is mostly at table tables along the wall walls of window. It was kind of neat to be able to sit and watch people walk by in the traffic as it ebbed and flowed toward the bridge. The early morning was rather quiet outside so it wasn't noisy at all. I had a lovely chai latte, extra spicy. It was perfect after the chilly walk to this little space of warmth. They had a nice selection of pastries, ultimately I chose a danish because I love them. This one did not disappoint. It was tender and flaky and went perfectly dipped in my chai. If ever, we are in the area again, I will definitely pay another visit. It was nice to step into a local place that wasn't a chain. I think the quality of staff and consumable offerings was just so much better than you would find at one of the other places.

I came in around 8:30, a few tables outside had people drinking their coffees and eating breakfast. When I walked in, only one guy was waiting for his order. There was only one person working. The service was not good. I stood at the order counter for 5 minutes, I looked at the lady, she looked at me, and didn't offer a high I'll be right with you. I understand she was the only one preparing coffee and food. I'm not trying to complain about the wait, but the lack of acknowledging a customer to say it will take some time. I finally ordered an iced latte. I do think they have some creative drinks, but I know they are usually too sweet and I just opt for a plain iced latte instead. It was an ok latte, nothing amazing. They have a bulletin board for people to post their flyers or business cards. There was a card on the board that said A.W.A.R - All woke are retards. I'm sure that's not the view of the establishment. I do think they need to screen the board from time to time.

Such a cute experience, British afternoon tea meets Malaysian comfort!…read more I came here recently with my partner for our anniversary and was completely delighted with the experience. Heads up, this place is street parking only so come prepared! I would also recommend making a reservation since it is a smaller space (it was busy when I came!) The menu is pretty straight forward and majority of folks including us ordered a set for $45 each person. It comes with two choices of sandwiches, a scone, an array of sweets, and tea of choice. What makes this place so great too is that they allow you to pick sandwiches that are traditional to English Breakfast or you can go out of your way to pick traditionally Asian flavors. Between my partner and I we ordered: Meat floss sandwich (my favorite but that is because I have an affinity for meat floss), beef jerky (love how it paired with the creamy mayo), kaya jam with butter (a delicious salty sweet blend), and chicken curry (comfort food at best). We both enjoyed the scone with clotted cream and jam, very typical for afternoon tea, and in the dessert tier we got chocolate rocks (fun!), macarons, ube chiffon cake, and a strawberry sago pudding. Heads up everyone in your party gets their own tea set so you can mix and match to share with folks. Btw, they do have square sugar cubes, a nice accent. Overall, I feel like you should try this place at least once! Everything was great including our service!

I often bring family and friends, and everyone in the place knows me by name. I've tried most of the coffee and matcha drinks and they are all excellent. But one drink showed up as a special a few months ago and quickly became the #1 go-to drink for both my wife and myself: the Orange Creamsicle Latte. We get it iced and made with oat milk and it is indescribably delicious. I came in earlier this week and was disappointed to learn that the Orange Creamsicle was considered a seasonal special and is gone. Lou, if you're reading this, please bring it back and make it part of the regular menu. Especially since summer's a-comin' and orange is a great summertime flavor!

The space is very modern, lots of light through the windows, tall ceilings! I'd love a place like this closer to home! Fast casual set up - order at the counter. Super easy! They have great menu items. We ordered the egg salad toast with chili crisp. The egg salad was rich but not much - was it made with kewpie mayo? The market salad with apple slices, Gouda cheese and candied pecans those with sherry vinaigrette was perfect for me! My extra treat was the pandan latte. It's slightly sweet with some jasmine and coconut notes. So delicious! Can't wait to come back!

We had two slices of meat and when it came out to the table, it was already falling apart. Think "shrink-flation" and this is the poster child for it. Same can be said about the salad unfortunately. You could finish it in four bites and with greens going bad so quickly, you would think they would give you more of it for the price. Flavors were extremely sweet and the candied walnuts tasted stale. Of course to top it off was their chai latte. It felt like a chai la croix because it tasted like the chai was just breathed on the water instead of being mixed in it. Overall really disappointing place. I would purely stick to their breads and maybe their pizzas if you are consider trying Firebrand.

My daughter had avocado toast and it was pretty odd, the avocado was 3x the expected amount and it was very liquid and oily seeming. Maybe olive oil was added? Anyway, it was a mess and not so great. The location is on a dock near the marina and you have some nice views of the water, boats and surrounding neighborhood. Seating a bit limited on the deck wrapping around the little cafe. Service was friendly and quick. If you live nearby I suggest checking it out!
