Whether it's just me popping by to…read morepick up a bakery treat on a Saturday morning or meeting with a group for dinner, you will love the food & service here. It's locally owned & operated. You will find one or both of the owners here quite frequently. Their staff is well trained and knowledgeable about the offerings. They are also efficient & thoughtful in their service which shows great training of the staff. It's a great place to host a meeting, shower or party. The owners are great to work with. There is a private room available for small events. Call ahead to reserve. After your entree, be sure to leave room for dessert. The menu varies but you can never go wrong with the chocolate torte or gelato.

Wow.... just wow. This pizza is the *best* I have ever tasted. I was unsure about just another…read morepizza place in rural Michigan, but the pizza is so delicious, and the portion sizes are perfect. The pepperoni is my favorite. They use a hot honey glaze that I am not usually a fan of in other dishes, but this glaze adds a nice sweetness to the pizza. The bartender was also super helpful. I do not usually order drinks, but he walked me through the menu and made sure to get me a drink that I liked. I also recently found out that they have coffee and pastries on Saturday morning. 100% recommend.

I could see this place getting very busy, but the times I went it wasn't too bad. Friendly staff at the counter. The lady bird sandwich was tasty and I was very full after it! Husband got a breakfast wrap (it comes pre made in foil behind the counter if that would impact your decision on whether to get it). Tasty nonetheless. Also got a cinnamon roll which was good, a bit sweet of course, but something I'd get again to split! Would stop by here again if you're in the area!

We popped in for breakfast and coffees one morning and the cafe was constantly busy, but moved really fast. Most people took their items away. The food was good, it came out hot and fast.

My husband and I went to the closest location to my mom's house and this was perfect. Parking was easy although slightly tricky to find the entrance if you're not familiar with this area. You don't enter through the bookstore, but rather the side. He ordered the regular drip (was delicious) and I tried their special amaretto honey latte. It was SO good. I thought it'd be overly sweet, but it was the perfect balance of sweetness so was happy with my choice. I noticed that this location also serves cocktails at night, so that's pretty interesting. If I am back in town again, will plan on checking it out.

Besides coffee, they have wine, beer, pop, and kambucha. I got the masala chai, which was nice and not overly sweet. For meal I got the hippie ki yay, and I enjoyed that flatbread, it is vegan. The spinach dip is also good but different than what you'd expect. It is not too creamy and has a little tangy taste. But I liked that a lot, so I enjoyed it. The ambiance is lively and energetic. There's a lot of seating available, and different types including a massive couch. It is noisy in there with everyone talking, but I dont think its too bad if you want to study there. They do have a stage where they have bands perform, they also have trivia nights. I hope to check out one of the trivia nights. There is a decent size parking lot in the back. This parking lot was filled on a Tuesday night, so its definitely a spot to go and check out. This is one of the best places I have been to in GR! Highly recommend it!!
