It's a very small homey like cafe where the few that were there seemed to have built a community. My mom and I came on a whim before a hike to the waterfall at Hemlock Falls at South Mountain Reservation. I ordered the avocado toast which had cherry tomatoes, sunflower seeds, crumbled feta and sriracha. While it wasn't overboard on the spice, if you are sensitive I would choose something else. My mom had the egg platter which came with scrambled eggs, bacon (turkey or pork) she had turkey bacon, white toast and the best seasoned sweet potatoes she's had. We also both had coffee she had a caramel latte and I had a white mocha, which were ok. The food was good but it was on the pricey side. It's a great spot if you are local otherwise I wouldn't go out of my way to travel here.

There is almost always music playing and I really appreciate them taking orders over the phone and online. They also have this cool complimentary option of personalizing your cup with a black & white photo of you if you ask. I've also had the turmeric latte and the avocado toast which are worth getting again. The toast was fresh and flavorful. They have an enclosed booth that looks like it seats 4. Great for a little open privacy. The couches are quite comfortable as well. They have punch cards which is good, but I'm terrible with remembering so it would be great if they went digital with rewards. Maybe 1 point per visit or 1 point per $1 with tiered rewards. It's the only coffee shop I go to in the area that doesn't have digital rewards. Would love to see more vegan options on the menu, maybe a cinnamon roll lol. Con is they open late for a cafe. Coffee shops typically open at 7am.

I was greeted by the friendly lady behind the counter as she finished up with another customer who looked to be getting his own breakfast and lunch to-go.

They have many different sandwiches to choose from and will of course make whatever you'd like even though the neighborhood has many Latin residents so much of the menu is made to attract that crowd. That is what the Am Cafe is a neighborhood breakfast/lunch with decent food and friendly service.

I do appreciate it being plainly shown on the receipt so it's up to the customer to decide next time opposed to just blindly up-charging the customer, like other places. Parking is hit or miss in the area, so I intentionally went not long after opening hours. The restaurant was completely empty when I arrived. I thought that would mean no long waits for food. I was wrong. Also, the service wasn't the most pleasant for placing a takeout order. The gentleman behind the counter seemed frustrated and hesitant to offer a menu, as if I was supposed to know everything they offer despite being a first time customer. I had the grilled chicken rasta pasta. Almost an hour wait! It was a decent portion, but overly salted. I probably would not get that again. Perhaps I'll try something else on the menu another time, but I am not in a hurry.

There's free street parking right up front. I've been here twice and both visits were positive experiences. The cafe is small, but cozy. The greenery and natural lighting make it a welcoming space to meet up with a friend over coffee and pastries or to study. There's a few tables, a couch, and stool seating facing the window. There's also free wifi and outlets. The tables are on the smaller side and the cafe isn't that big, so it's probably not best for large groups. Their menu is simple and a bit limited. Honestly... I prefer it that way! They have your core espresso drinks and a few paninis and croissant sandwiches. They bake their own pastries fresh on the premises. I recommend trying their cookies - they are huge, soft, and chewy! They also specialize in custom cakes for special occasions. Everything is reasonably priced. Baristas are sweet and efficient. They make some tasty iced lattes! The espresso is strong, but not too bitter. It has just the right balance of coffee and milk. I recently tried the Ham Solo sandwich ($10) which included scrambled egg, ham, cheddar, and avocado on a croissant with a side of chips. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't order it again. The egg was dry and the ham and cheese tasted like those cheap, pre-sliced ones from grocery stores. If I lived closer, I could see myself stopping by more often. Check them out if you're in the area!

We were on a drive visiting town and made this our first stop.

If I find myself back I will just get my usual oat milk latte because reviews say they do coffee very well. We also got a pastry to share and that was so tasty. All in all a great find!

Worse, I watched her tell another server to take my returned container of grits back into the kitchen -- a serious health code violation.
