    Sunrise special
    Catherine Z.

    Solid 4. Perfectly acceptable diner food. The over-medium eggs were cooked perfectly, but hubs said his scrambled were a little overdone. The breakfast potatoes were slightly sweet, which was odd, but passable. The bacon was thick and tasty. The toast was a little chewy, but again, fine. Service was great and it's a nice quiet place to have breakfast.

    Lunch menu

    Nice breakfast & lunch cafe. Limited menu, see pics, but delicious food. We had a breakfast burrito w/ sausage, potatoes, green chilis, union, & cheese. My wife had the 2 egg breakfast with bacon? Taylor's, & toast. Reasonable prices and indoor or outdoor seating. We recommend this place. Open til 2pm.

    Coffee and chai
    Elaine R.

    A solid place with the only decent coffee serving latte (no oatmilk but they had coconut and almond milk). Super cute store selling jewelry and native blankets too. Smoothies, Sandwiches, and breakfast with indoor and outdoor eating area. Ordered coffee which was decent. My almond milk latte was good with SF vanilla Breakfast burrito we added bacon and sausage was good but needed some creaminess to offset the acidity from the green Chili (it wasn't spicy hot just medium). Overall I would rate this place a 3.5 in the bay area but since it the ONLY decent coffee place in monticello. They get a 5! Service was good girl just started was friendly and barrista was nice.

    a counter with a plate of doughnuts

    I was hopeful, but slightly disappointed. We were greeted by a very sullen cashier. I tried to lighten the atmosphere but to no avail. I felt like I was an imposition quite honestly. The food came out and it was goods we have the 2 egg breakfast with bacon. The eggs and bacon were very good, hash browns were strange and not very BROWN. Coffee was excellent too. You order at the counter, they bring it to you. When she brought our food, again no friendliness. So, food was very good, service not good. Maybe it was a bad day, I'm always open to trying again.

    Creamy broccoli soup

    We ordered the wrap and soup. The rolls with the soup were soft and good. Soup was creamy with real broccoli small chunks in it. The wrap seems to be a bit tough for my husband to chew. The gift store addition was interesting. Lots if vipers there plus native gifts.

    Best place in town to grab a cappuccino, pastries or lunch. Serving Craven coffee roasters. If you're a coffee lover you'll know this is very special coffee. Great customer service. They go Above and beyond welcoming you to dine in or just chat at coffee bar. To cut back on the loitering and NON customers I really like the NO WIFI and Laptops. Thats a 5 Star PLUS bonus. Call ahead for to go also is awesome on the Go. Look forward to another visit through town.

    They have the best breakfast burritos! Friendly service and the only place to get a good latte anywhere nearby.
