This is because the food is made to order and out of this world. I typically don't play around upon delivery. The service is the best hospitality I've experienced since I was a server giving A+ hospitality. They're warm, aware and focused on their customers. The ambiance is adorable, feminine and rich. Hands down my favorite place in SOMA/Essex County

Sure, I can just not get the side of bacon or sausage - but since those sides are $4-$5 - I wish they would adjust the pricing. Eggs, with no meat should not cost $20. They include the option to select no meat - but then charge you as if you got it anyway. If you get less food, especially an expensive item like meat, I should pay less. Anyway - I know - just don't eat there, and I generally don't anymore. But it's a shame and an easy fix to appeal to everyone. And an expensive proposition for non-meat eaters.

Guy was nice enough to tell me that they had switched to wraps instead of rolls. He also said the usual wrap also ran out, so they have a substitute. I hate to say the sandwich was just okay, nothing that would have me return there again, since it was just an ordinary THEC sandwich, which I would prefer to have in a bagel or croissant. And coffee was a little on the burnt side. Prices were okay. Unlikely I would make an effort to go there. Also, I found that I was charged 5 cents for a bag for the food ordered to go.

He managed to keep things moving while running into the kitchen, handing out takeout, and writing down orders at the counter. My turkey bacon melt was good, but I would have liked it warmed all the way through, maybe a few seconds of the turkey on the grill? I will go back and try more. Oh and the homemade chips that come with are good too, and bonus points for eco-friendly packaging.

It was very clean and fresh inside and everyone was friendly. I tried shakshuka for the first time, and I loved it! It wasn't too heavy, and the sauce was super flavorful sauce. I enjoyed seeing all of the mediterranean-inspired options they had on the menu. I also ordered a plain iced latte which was great! The espresso was very smooth. We went around 9 am on a Monday, so it wasn't super busy, but I've seen this place packed! The lunch menu also seemed super interesting so, so I would love to come back to try more!

It looks like everything is made in-house, and we especially appreciated that their bread is sourdough. They offer a great variety of breads and baked goods. We kept it simple and tried a gluten-free hazelnut chocolate cake, a chocolate mousse, a chocolate chip cookie, and a latte that came with a small espresso cookie on the side. The service was outstanding, and everything we had was delicious. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more items.

I had ordered a Lavender White Mocha which tasted kind of like a light lavender flavored cappuccino. In my mind, I was expecting a little more of a chocolate taste but maybe it got diluted since a white coffee should have a lot of milk. As a coffee it was very calm and tasted good, very nice to sip. But I may have been expecting to taste more of what is in the name. I also had The Bell. The warm brie cheese felt like it just melted in your mouth. there was a type of light jam smeared on and in the sandwich that complimented the turkey really well. Freshly made and warm. It was all around really good. It is a very pleasant experience. since I was eating in, they put the coffee in proper mugs that they just wash and reuse. The decorations had a warm industrial vibe to it. Like modern references but not flashy. One of their, lets say shrines, was a bunch of popular couples from TV shows and movies that people may know. It was next to a big open tree art piece. So its not always going together but didn't feel out of place. The music was pleasant and not loud to the point where you couldn't talk to a companion. The shop is along a busy street but they actually have a free parking lot in the next block over. It is certainly going in my list of shops to bring others too. It has a lot going for it and my takeaways has me thinking this business is going to stay open for a long time with all its good points.

Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad.

The wall frames and Christmas decorations are gorgeous and there are tables, with comfortable seating, on one end of the Cafe. I ordered the following: Matcha White Hot Chocolate (a traditional matcha latte blended with white chocolate sauce), Snickerdoodle Latte (A traditional latte, blended with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla syrup). Both of these were served at the perfect temperature, were richly creamy, and served in large mugs. I also ordered a Carrot Cake Muffin and it was very good. It was moist, each forkful had a decent amount of walnuts, and the frosting was exquisite. Once you're finished with your food, don't forget to stroll through the entire cafe. You'll probably find something that will pique your interest. Either way, try to make time to enjoy it all.
