The delightful scent of coffee was in the air and the staff were absolutely friendly as you approached the counter. Despite a buzz of patrons trickling in and ordering, the coffee was delivered to the table shortly after I sat. The staff obviously had a strong momentum going as I watched other tables being served just as quickly. Before I could even really start sipping on my piping hot Cafe Au Lait, I was served my salad and crepe. It was fun to watch how each person worked their station passionately. The lady preparing the crepes meticulously cleaned her station as she cooked. The staff on coffee were brewing away and sending cups out to diners. Other items were coming out from the back kitchen. They worked in unison like a well oiled machine. I definitely enjoyed my coffee. My salad was generous and hit the spot. The crepe was acceptable. Would I come back? Yeah, definitely my type of breakfast spot when visiting Portsmouth again. I definitely will try their croissants next time as well as check out their wine bar in the evenings!

We got the passion fruit ice cream which was absolutely bomb. The passion fruit tasted super fresh and tart, yet milky and creamy at the same time. Tax and tip is included in the price of the ice cream, which was extremely reasonable at $4ish dollars a scoop! They seem to rotate flavors seasonally, so can't wait to come back and check out more flavors!

And somehow they had a full menu of flavors. I'm glad they allow samples. The flavor was good but the texture was not very creamy. Additionally not sure if it's the product or how my scooped my ice cream but every attempt to eat I dropped more ice cream (the first chunk was during the pass off) and subsequent dropage. I went to get a cup because this cost me $9 without tip! Yikes. And while i never mind paying for great eats- this was really only good. The flavors got lost cause i did do 2 scoops. I am shocked at how high the price to portion ratio, really. The strawberry was good, the coffee Oreo was kinda meh. Oh, they need to place a cover on those brownies on the top counter over the ice cream. Literally its mouth height and everyone including myself was talking into them ordering. Yikes. If I did return it would be for one scoop and really has to be something unique. There are ice cream shoppes that offer quality and quantity for almost half this price.

Even its name has a connection to Egypt, referencing Elephantine Island and an ancient bakery discovered there.

I ordered the ham and cheese baguette, which was phenomenal, but they're especially known for their handcrafted pastries, breads and coffee.

Do not ever go to this facility. I ordered a cake a week in advance and was supposed to pick it up on my son's birthday. They never made it. To make things worse they didn't offer to do anything for my son and we were there on his birthday. They just refunded me and gave me attitude. they did however offer that I could grab a bigger freezer burnt cake that's been sitting in their freezer without an additional charge. The cake i ordered was already paid for and cleared with my credit card company. When I went to pay for the cake over the phone, they asked me if I wanted to add a tip????? I didn't even see the cake yet and to make a long story short, they didn't even make the cake period. It's a very toxic business. I would never go there. I Will give my business to someone else that knows how to deal with errors and customer service.
