The coffee was mediocre, and it only got worse. The food was uninspired and tasteless; its only…read morebenefit was the sugar sprinkled on top. The barista was benign. The place was cold in winter, the decor inoffensive yet uninteresting, and the chairs flimsy metal affairs whose backs bent when sat in (for reference, I weigh less than 140 lbs). The tables were magnetic, beware of setting any delicate electronics on them. Because the tables and chairs were metal, they absorbed the cold atmosphere and were frostily uncomfortable to touch. There was an open soda fridge by the counter. Its buzzing was louder than the faint music, so much so that it was the predominant noise in the cafe. For all that, it's not even a cheap place to grab a cup of coffee. I left after a few sips of my coffee and a bite of the pastry I bought, leaving both behind. This was a five-minute impression, one I never intend to repeat. Two stars because the coffee was hot and it was drinkable, otherwise would be one.

We looked at a few different options for places to eat and thought this one would be nice for a sit down discussion. We got there around 10 AM and a few patrons were scattered about. Quite a variety of different places to sit, we sat at a table for two near the bar. Handed a breakfast/lunch menu so many things looked so good. We weren't sure what to go with so we asked for some of their favorites. We were offered suggestions on the avocado toast and the poppy. I went with the avocado toast. As always, I bagged the onion and kept all the other ingredients which included avocado spread, spinach, tomato, sunflower seeds, and an egg over easy. You have a choice of toast, including white, wheat, or rye. Gotta go with wheat! Absolutely a terrific place to go to and support the local community and get everything you'd want and one of those chain type coffee shops (you know the green one I'm talking about) and get a much more natural, even lower cost option

I wanted to like it here more than we did because it's local, small, in a great location in a…read morehistoric building, and the service was very friendly and fast. However, the food left a lot to be desired. We ordered the quiche and the avocado toast with a side of potatoes. Potatoes were burned, well, charred really. They did take them off the bill. Quiche was so so, and the avocado toast had a ton of raw spinach on it, which was hard to eat along with the toast. Should have come steamed or sautéed instead. Bacon was good though! I was very excited about the pastry case at first since everything in there looked fresh and home made, but when I was trying to decide what to get "to go", like one of their muffins, I saw flies buzzing around and landing on the items. No thank you. I know flies are around in the summer, but the pastry case should be shielded from bugs at all times. I think if I were in the area I may give this place another chance since I liked other things about it like the atmosphere and the fact that it did look like a local family favorite.

This place definitely fits the bill! I ordered a Joseph's salad with chicken: grilled chicken over spring mix, dried cranberries, crumbled blue cheese, and butter toasted walnuts with house orange viniagrette - exactly what i was looking for! Plus! You know i need at least 2 drinks wherever i go, so i ended up trying their chaga Matcha ($6.50) and coconut matcha smoothie ($8). I prefer the former but both are yummy and they use 100% premium ceremonial grade matcha! They came out mild and delicious rather than being too bitter or sweet as some matcha drinks can be. Service was amazing, though you'll need to ring a bell in case someone is in the back. I actually preferred this since the place wasn't crowded and I could take my time with the menu and everything on display. Paige was the barista and she was super friendly, and even offered me some buttons and handouts when I asked about their chaga matcha! Ambiance here is also nice! It's actually located inside a Fidelity bank but with plenty of breathing room to order at the cafè and sit to enjoy your meal. There's plenty of outdoor seating and corporate-esque seating inside. If you have Fidelity, you can actually get a discount on coffee here as well! Everything seemed pretty reasonably priced to me, coming out to just under $25. A great spot to stumble upon!
