I can say that my breakfast croissant was good and my caramel frappuccino was as well. My husband ordered a breakfast bowl which included eggs, bacon and sausage, however when the order came to the table all of the food was on a plate. Im used to a breakfast bowl having all of the ingredients in a bowl scrambled together. That was disappointing for my husband. He's not a complainer so he didn't let the waiter know that he thought he was getting a breakfast bowl. The service was good. The restaurant have nightly events such as Trivia, and karaoke I would go back to attend one of those events and I would go back for the coffee, not necessarily the food.

It is definitely worth the trip and you will not regret it. They also have alcoholic drinks too, but I have never tried any there.

EVERY. SINGLE. ITEM. was delicious. We bought it to go, but we did sit down in the very clean and tidy restaurant area to eat one each before hitting the road. We'll definitely be back often, even though it's a bit of a drive. It's worth it.

I went on a Tuesday evening around 6pm and there was a small mature crowd. Looked like a place people went after work to grab a drink or get food to eat. I had the $5 margarita drink special, which did not disappoint. The service was exceptional and the crowd of people there were friendly and welcoming. I sat at the bar and there were plenty of people at the bar who were willing to be social and strike a conversation. There were people there playing a domino tournament and enjoying the music at the same time. I highly recommend this place if you live nearby and want to just get a drink and food without a huge wait or crowds I did not order food but it smelled and looked good.

Today, I was blessed to find my favorite spot at the bar open. This is a great vantage point to witness how a well run restaurant functions. The bar space is quite tight, but the servers and baristas (notably, the always excellent Lynne) move elegantly between each other as if in a choreographed dance. The Lindbergh Tartine was on point today with delicious sausage gravy over house-made sourdough, two sunny side up eggs and the always fantastic crispy potatoes. Soooo gooood! The pleasing decor, cute bistro-style tables and live plants makes this spot feel so warm. After coming here multiple times, I sometimes look for small improvements that I might suggest, but I'm consistently unsuccessful! With that said, I do think it's time to put some purse hooks up under the bar seating....still getting a solid 5-Star review! Come to Ivy Cafe and see for yourself!

Not sure if there's an upstairs but definitely a fun place. Love when my mocha latte has a blended chocolate flavor and balanced with the coffee. They had a nice pastry assortment as well that we will have to try next time!

The shop itself is a former home-turned café/shop. So, parking here is very limited and very tight…read more While I could have fitted my car in one of the spaces, the two cars on either side were too close to the parking lines for my comfort so I parked across the street at the bank and walked over. When you enter, it's very small but very well put together décor wise. Each area had signs that discouraged movement of their furniture and had its own kind of theme. I was meeting up with a friend and her daughter and unfortunately did not realize they had the typical café hours (closed at 2pm) so my visit was very quick (30 minutes) and I had to rush my conversation. I ordered an iced Monstera Mint latte and chocolate coffee cake slice. When the barista called up my order, I repeated my order asking if it's mine (they don't use a name system) and apparently *I* mispronounced MONSTERA because she turned her back and said within earshot to her coworker how I did not pronounce it correctly and why do people say it incorrectly. I am not a big plant person so excuse me for not knowing how every single plant name is pronounced. I know people vent at work, but it made me feel uncomfortable the rest of my visit, so I was glad it was almost time to leave before they closed. Vent after customers leave if you have to.... Anyways, my MONSTER-AH mint latte was good, but the chocolate coffee cake was a bit too dry for me. And service could have been a bit more professional in my opinion.

I was a little surprised by how this experience stacked up against the 4.6 rating…read more I ordered the turkey and brie sandwich, and it didn't really land. The bread was more like a basic sub roll than something you'd expect from a café like this, and the balance was off. It was very heavy on the turkey and pretty light on the brie, which kind of defeats the point of ordering that combo in the first place. That said, service was solid and the space itself is a nice, quiet spot if you're looking to get some work done over lunch. Overall, not terrible, but not something I'd go out of my way to come back for.
