Great experience AND a great cake. I wandered in here 2 weeks before my dad's marriage to his…read morepartner of 20 years with no idea how to go about buying a cake for their wedding. I wanted more of a groom's cake rather a traditional multilevel wedding cake. Ellen listened to my vague and lame ideas on cake shapes then steered me towards a wonderful design that incorporated aspects of the two grooms lives together. Two weeks later the cake was delivered and was a huge hit. PLUS it was delicious which is generally not something I expect in a wedding cake. Dark chocolate with vanilla butter cream and salted caramel = yum. A big thank you to Ellen!

Even though she wasnt on our "approved vendor list" at Tupper Manor, we used her anyways..THATS HOW GOOD HER CAKES ARE! we had lemon curd with vanilla cake and buttercream. OMG! when a cake is made by someone who uses quality ingredients and spends time (and her own hands, not a Factory) to make you a AMAZING looking cake, it shows. We sadly just ate the last slice from the "top tier" we took home. If you are looking for a talented cake maker who loves what she does, Ellen is for you! Dont settle for a big company that doesnt care and turns out sub par product. Find someone like Ellen..she sent us 5 designs she drew herself before we even picked the winning one. My cake cutting picture with my husband, is my profile picture on facebook. THATS HOW AWESOME IT WAS! We went by her shop today to thank her and she made us two cupcakes on the spot! Talk about awesome!

I love nachos and I love BLTs, and it's amazing how many places have managed to not do these two things well. I have never been able to find a place that can make a good BLT, until now! I needed a quick lunch today and went here on a whim because it was close by. I saw they were closing soon, but there were people inside so I headed in. Sometimes small, local coffee shops can feel drafty or unkempt or just lifeless. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I'd want to sit there for hours. The temperature was just right, and the ambiance felt friendly and warm. I acknowledged that they were closing soon and asked if I could still order a sandwich. They replied in a way that felt welcoming, and not like I was imposing on them (which some places, 15 minutes prior to closing, would have). I ordered the BLT and used the restroom while I waited. Even the restroom was pleasant! I sat in one of the two window bays on a comfortable stool (again, perfect! sometimes they're way too high for a 4'10" to get up on, or off), with a complimentary cup of water (I love when cafes have serve yourself water). One of the servers brought my sandwich over and even on first glance I could tell it was going to be good. No wilted lettuce, no weird bread, perfect amount of mayo and bacon. It was the best BLT I've had at a restaurant, even better than I make at home. So, 5 stars for great ambiance, friendly, unrushed service, and a great BLT! I have no doubt that their other food is just as good.

One thing to note is they only have 3 flavors each week, personally I have been able to enjoy one each time but if you're not as adventurous with flavors make sure to call and check what that weeks flavors are. I was a little disappointed because we decided to get a 12 pack to bring to a gathering the next day and they wouldn't let us choose how many of each kind we wanted, it had to be 4 of each flavor. Which we were then forced to get a 6-pack and 2 3-packs which came out to be more money than a 12 pack. I would have hoped for better customer service on their end.

We tried the North Shore, Whole Hog (on a bed of tots), and the bacon egg and cheese! We also got 2 side orders of tots. I loved all the food, every bite I took was delish! There tots were hot and crispy and well seasoned also. For the coffee I went with the signature "The Crave", which was so delightful. I got it with oat milk and it was smooth and delish as well! The inside of the place is just a cute hip vibe. It's a smaller cafe with some seating along one of the wall of window, and then they have some tables. Right when we arrived, every table was packed, but by the time our food arrived, tables opened up, which was nice. It seemed that most people would turnover the table quickly to allow for others to sit. The staff were super friendly and patient, and all around great place to have breakfast in Salem!

Parking- didn't see a dedicated lot, looks like street parking only. We found a spot down the street, walkable distance. Looks like we made the right choice, because the place was poppin. Lots of folks coming in & out. We were lucky enough to snag a table for the group while some of the group stayed in line. I noted several groups of ladies with cute witchy style outfits very fitting for Salem, that could def be OOTD worthy on IG. Service- seemed fine. My friends ordered for me at the counter while I held down our table, so I can't speak to the ordering interaction. They were speaking names out very low for pick up at the counter, I remember that. Food- I got the North Shore sammy - which comes with maple bacon, over medium egg, chedder cheese, maple aoili on a croissant. The egg was runny just what I like, and it was yummy and bigger than I imagined. Very filling. I could have just split one with my friends, but everyone got there own. So I left more full than I wanted, because I didn't want to take away. Drink- I got a latte, that was fine, nothing to write home about. If visiting this charming town try it out. I saw mostly tourist, so don't think it's a locals hang out. But it's not a trap luckily, lol.
