There is not a lot of parking on the street itself but there is a nearby lot that would be easier to manage getting a spot. I liked their almond croissant but the masala chai had too much milk and not enough chai. The decor is super cute, especially for the afternoon tea! We thoroughly enjoyed most of the spread except the texture and flavor of the macarons could use some improvement. The teapots had unlimited refills (I think?) and all the options sounded so good! It was about $30/person and I think that was more than fair. We saw a group with a couple of women and young girls with them who were also doing a tea party! It was so cute to see kids being able to enjoy this too :)

I should wait until tomorrow to write this because I'm definitely coming back. I needed to find a…read morecomfortable and quiet place to work for a few hours while my son was at a nearby camp. Was 35 minute drive to get here. This place is easy to find- though if you're not armed with a handicap placard that can get you a spot right out front- you should just park in the big open lot at the end of this street. Don't worry it's less than a block away. The service is chill and efficient. They'll warm up your pastry selection for you. If you can stay and enjoy things on a plate and in a mug, you won't regret it. I had the Brunch Pocket. Yes, just the name makes you want it, right!? It's a cheesy croissant with bacon, turkey, and egg inside! Uhhhh, YUMMY! It's a bit flaky though, so be prepared to make a mess. My beverage of choice today was the Silk Mocha Latte. I did it with Oat Milk and it was silky silky smoothness wrapped in whip cream heaven. There's a photo for your drooling pleasures. Check this place out for sure! Note: also on the menu Rainbow bagels (great for kids) they've got flavors of cream cheese to choose from too. Macaroons in all the colors/flavors and a few frozen lattes to choose from too including Rose Noon Chai and a Jade Matcha

They completely removed my all time favorite meal. They can't even make my old meal for me since the barista said they don't have any turkey items.

We probably won't be back much after the change. :(

Iced cookie butter latte!!!…read more Perfect!!! Not too strong .. perfect balance of flavors .. not overly sweet which is how many shops prepare and it just drowns the flavor of the espresso .. anyway I ordered the large and it comes with 3 espresso shots - Since I don't love super strong coffee I requested the 3rd on the side but ended up using it anyway as it was perfect with all 3! The espresso was not bitter and had a wonderful flavor .. and smelled divine .. there were several other offerings that I'm eager to try later.. The atmosphere was nice and relaxing.. the Service was fantastic Avery was super sweet and helpful .. anxious to visit again!

In addition to books/etc., there is a nice coffee shop with GF and vegan treats and small menu of lite bites. They alo have a huge loose tea selection.

The owner conveyed this a woman owned and woman led bookstore. She also said some of their key bookstore tenets was inclusion, intersectionality, and authenticity. A total of 5 authors shared their thoughts on becoming authors, challenges and opportunities. The authors discussed different genres of books - children books, sci-fi, romance, poems and biographies. One author shared some thought-provoking messages: "You don't what you think until you see what you say. Words were currency and powerful." She also said her mother never asked her how her day was but instead what questions did you ask in class. She indicated these questions provoked deeper conversations. This was a great event...

Their mission is to provide employment for adults with special needs and their profits support a vocational program to empower local citizens. When you first enter the building, you see a shop with lots of beautifully crafted and interesting products. Lots to shop here, although prices are high which then again, part of the proceeds go into a good cause and the products are well made. The cafe is located at the back of the shop. We spent a little time browsing the shop before going to the cafe. The cafe itself is so welcoming and spacious! Not a great ton of seating available but there's outdoor seating area with turf, which I can see is a huge plus when cooler weather arrives. I love the signs on the wall, very motivating sayings and quotes. For food, I had the avocado toast with bacon and fried egg and an espresso. It was delicious! Price point was good and food came out hot and fresh. I noticed when we were there, the lady at the counter (presumably the manager) was addressing the patrons by name, which was such a nice touch to see. It feels like this place really cares for their customers and is an established place in the local community. Parking is free and ample spaces available when we went there on a Friday morning. I like this place so much I ended up bringing my family there the following week. Support a good cause and eat a nutritious meal at the same time. Go visit!

Need or want...same difference. Smile. I was actually toying with the idea of buying some mud honey (spiced honey). My barista said that that the mud honey was a part of the Adaptogen Latte. The word Adaptogen sounded to me like a CBD substance. My barista assured me that an adaptogen was a nontoxic substance from a plant or mushroom extract. Thus, I decided to try this latte. While the latte was pleasantly refreshing, I could not taste a distinctive mud honey. Thus, I decided to purchase the latte but not the mud honey. This bistro was cute with the trappings of homemade goodies such as cookies, pastries and other snacks. After the book discussion, folks were mostly waiting in line to purchase books or have their books signed. I received the full attention of the Bistro staff.

But, having been served 'day old' bakery at full price more than once, as if these are premium items, is a bit distressing bc it erodes trust. That I will now have to ask whether or not what we want to eat is 'fresh baked' lessens the relationships we build as consumers. Consumer loyalty is earned not just from service, but trust built from expectation the cash we're spending is for something of equal value. Lately, that measure of standard has not been met which is sad, considering this is such a cool little Cafe at which to enjoy one of the #SweetLemonKitchen's famous #CinnamonRolls, #FruitScones, &/or #ChickenSalad sandwiches. Losing $13-22 per person per visit isn't good business, & hope you will make the decision to rectify this in the future: If you're going to sell 'day old' bakery, then give the consumer the option to pay 'half price' for the old item or full price for 'fresh baked'... which would be equitable & ensure trustworthiness, #imho ;)
