On a very busy, dreary Sunday, the staff was upbeat and worked quickly. Fresh baked means they may run out of a favorite at some times, but will recommend a delicious alternative. My sandwich was fresh made, filling and delicious. The coffee was perfect and I love the flavor combos on their specials board (by the register). The place is cozy, and inviting.

Really wanted to like this but it's just an over priced mediocre place. Hubby got steak and egg sandwich on sour dough which he liked but it wasn't worth $16. I ordered ham and cheese quiche and got the Florentine. It was ok but for $11, get the order right! I didn't want to get back in line to exchange it. The bakery section is pretty dry and uninspired, at least what I got was! I wouldn't go back. Paid $50 for a breakfast and had to sit on a stool looking out a window. Not worth it! read more

Quiche was excellent but all the food is served in these huge, deep paper to-go boxes making it almost impossible to eat. No forks. Coffee was just ok. Biggest turn-off for me is seeing a barista standing there on his iPhone, then setting it down to begin preparing my drink! Germ city. Gross. Final straw on 2nd visit was the woman yelling orders loud enough to get the attention of everyone OUTSIDE and doing so in a weird theatrical voice. Not pleasant when you are trying to read and enjoy your coffee. Just take the orders outside. read more

WOW!!!! You must make time to stop here for breakfast or pastries!! So very happy we found this place early on our trip to Savannah. They gave the very best avocado toast I've ever had! Perfectly crispy, thick bread, thinly sliced avocado, arugula and goat cheese And.... add the bacon! Phenomenal bacon! We ordered our food to go, only a few tables outside and a bar area with stools inside so it's a small place but quaint! Every person who helped us was friendly and kind!

I consider it was a little bit expensive for a sandwich, chocolate croissant and a coffee. It didn't seem like the staff was 100% percent willing to help me. But I understand. Not everyone likes to be that inthusiastic about their job. I mean don't get me wrong, the staff was helpful, I just didn't feel that hospitality when I said it's my first time at this cafe and if they can give me a good recommendation to eat something for breakfast. Usually I expect something: "I know what I can recommend you, or here some nice options that we have". Nice interior but not the coziest place around Downtown Savannah. read more

Nice looking coffee shop. Food was good, though egg was not fresh and was likely frozen then microwaved. Coffee was fine. Not a great value. $35+ for two coffees and two sandwiches. Ordered a flavored latte and received regular. When I asked for the flavor to be added was told "it's an extra $0.50" charge and I could "get in line" then they "would add it", despite asking for it in the first place. Note: I don't generally leave reviews. Unfortunately, this experience warranted it. read more

Super cute coffee shop and great location. Easily walkable from Forsyth park and not far from downtown. We ordered 7 drinks and the two baristas were patient and friendly throughout. I got an iced pumpkin spice latte with skim milk. It was great not too sweet and not too milky. Just they way I like it. Everyone seemed to enjoy their drinks. There were two of us carrying the 7 coffees back to our air bnb and they tried their best to package them up in their flimsy (but recyclable) carriers. We didn't get the food but a lot of people seemed the order the food while we were there and it looked good. It was fairly busy too so it seems the locals frequent the place.

The bagels are not baked in-house but rather removed from a plastic bag purchased commercially. The bagel sandwich options were upscale with plenty of options. I ordered the MORNING DEW BAGEL SANDWICH, which came with egg, avocado, arugula, hot sauce and dill herb cream cheese. I was not sure about the dill herb cream cheese until I tasted it. It was super yummy! The multi grain bagel is the normal option for this sandwich but I opted for EVERYTHING BAGEL. They have their own SURFING GOAT COFFEE BLEND. I ordered the standard drip coffee and it was ok. They need to clean their coffee machine as there was a slight bitter flavor from the coffee oils in the machine. Great location by main beach/pier on Tybee Island. Small interior seating with bar and table service. You order at counter and they call your name when ready.

We ate brunch here recently, and we were underwhelmed…read more First, when we walked in, we weren't really sure where to sit or order. A guy in the kitchen told us to order at the screen around the corner. I hate that. I don't like touching a computer screen that everyone else has touched, I don't like the impersonal nature of it, and I don't like that someone's job was replaced by this technology. A meaningful part of the experience of dining out for me is the interaction with actual humans. If I wanted an impersonal transactional experience of money for food, I could just go to McDonald's or Taco Bell. The aesthetic of the restaurant was not cozy, warm, quaint, or inviting. It felt more like a nice downtown bar than a creperie. After we ordered, it took an inordinately long time to get our food. Considering we just ordered 2 crepes, timing shouldn't have been an issue. My spouse's crepe was decent, but my crepe seemed to be a mix of savory and sweet, which was odd...kind of like they cooked my savory crepe on the same pan as a sweet crepe, and they merged somehow. I am not sure what that was about, but there was definitely something sweet in my savory crepe, which didn't taste great. Lastly, the tomatoes smelled and tasted like fish. I have no idea why or what that was about, but it was definitely a thing. I didn't eat them. I told someone who worked there, and he just seemed surprised because "they don't serve any fish there." I paid extra for the tomatoes and was not offered a refund. Overall, we were not impressed and will not be returning.
