The food is what really stands out. They have such unique flavor combinations that you don't find at your average coffee shop. I ordered the jalapeño popper sausage biscuit, and it was incredible. The sauce and pickled red onions took it to the next level and made every bite so flavorful. The coffee is solid, and the café is in a great downtown location that's perfect for starting your morning or taking a break while exploring the area. If you're looking for a one-stop shop for both breakfast and coffee, look no further. We absolutely love this place and will keep coming back whenever we're in town.

We went on a Sunday and they only serve the brunch menu since they close at 2 PM on Sundays. The restaurant wasn't overly busy when we got there, so it was disappointing to have slower service without really seeing how/why. Overall food was delicious and we would definitely be back to try a few of the dinner options next time.

You place your order at the bar. I ordered teriyaki wings and my son ordered a burger from the kids menu (which is Star Wars themed: super cute.) We chose our own table. The food came out within 10 minutes. In that time frame, at least 3 families walked in to eat. I believe they were a bit short staffed that day, because the line at the bar to order did get a bit long. The wings were good, with the perfect amount of sauce. My son also enjoyed his "Boba burger," named after Boba Fett. Would love to come back during peak business hours to enjoy what seems to be a cool atmosphere.

Service is always great with the waiter/waitresses always being playful and friendly, though I don't recommend sitting in the back room; it has a funny smell. For the food, you always get free delicious bread with their specialty butter that is good enough to eat by the spoonful. Harry's may be known for their seafood but they can do it all; Land (steak medallions are perfectly seasoned and cooked to your liking), Sea (incredible Shrimp and Grits with the sweet corn grits being a real knockout), and Air (Chicken Jolie Blonde is phenomenal! This dish is served on their famous grits cake smothered in a Parmesan sauce.) Trust me me and always order the Grits Cake as a side! Ended the meal with their Oreo Beignets, another "must get" dish!

The place was very clean. Restroom: They have a male and female restrooms with multiple stalls. The female restroom has a changing pad in it for little ones. The restrooms were very clean. Service: Our server Greg was very friendly and welcoming. You can tell he is very passionate about what he does! He was very attentive and service was quick. Food: The food was ok. I ordered the 'Shrimp & Grits'. The dish had some good flavor but it didn't blow me away. I've had better shrimp and grits. I've been to New Orleans and this doesn't really compare to the food there. The complimentary bread was good. Overall, it was an okay place to come for lunch. The food didn't blow me away but the service and atmosphere was great. The prices were reasonable.

It was a Saturday and I forgot the market was going on so it was a bit busy but always worth the wait. Honestly, I didn't think there would be any left the way the Line was looking, but luckily when I got to the front, they still had carrot cake left. I ordered a slice and waited patiently for my name to be called. Once it was ready, I picked it up and it was already made for to go, but I decided to eat in house. This carrot cake is so unbelievably delicious. It's filled with pineapples, walnuts, and everything you could dream of. Will always be my favorite!
