    The restaurant was cute inside and warm. I liked the atmosphere a lot. I did find it semi-confusing to order a coffee because there were so many options. I like to just pick a name and go with that usually I don't like to have to tell each single ingredient I want to add because I'm not ever sure which ingredients need to be added to my coffee But the food and coffee was delicious. I would recommend this place for an acquaint little cup in the morning. The service was pretty quick and the noise level of the restaurant was perfect for a slow start to the morning.

    Latte!

    They are always sooo friendly in here. Been going here for forever and noticed the lower reviews and had to add a positive one. They have great coffee with tons of options + good food. It's always such a good vibe though there, as well! Support a local business:)

    Menu with great selection

    As you can see by the photos that the ambiance is amazing! This place made me feel at home as I'm an eclectic person as well. Grew up with a large family...nothing matched and was plenty of room for more. This place also gad a feeling that when you walk in alone, you are not alone. It's not a yuppy place but the vibe is sorta Woodstock and does have very young clientele who are very friendly and very helpful. This was my first time here. I actually was parked in front of another coffee house but this one popped up on Yelp. I'm glad I went. I ride motorcycle as well and know a few groups that would live this place. The parking lot has plenty of space, is handicap accessible and has a nice, cute little outside seating area. I don't get in the area often but I will definitely be back. Signed up for promos. Thank you, Mama's Java Cafe'

I am shocked that during my recent visit I visited this restaurant for the very first time! The servers were very kind and patient while we made our group order. I decided to order the chicken strip combo with mac & cheese and collard greens. I also ordered a Pilsner beer to drink. Prices were very reasonable. Before tip I think I spent less than $25 on the whole meal! I was also served so much chicken that I ended up taking some of it home. Everything was so great and I look forward to returning for future visits!

They have flavored syrups you can add to your sodas, ice cream if you want a sweet treat after- truly delightful to find a little restaurant like this. Walked in pleasantly as soon as we entered, she was willing to answer any questions about the menu and brought the food to us when we sat on the back patio. I had the buffalo chicken wrap, husband had the hot chicken Caesar wrap- both were sooooooo delicious if not a wee bit messy be prepared to use napkins! The coleslaw inside of mine was sooooooo good, the mixture of flavors was incredible. Definitely a nice lil joint for a chill meal, will absolutely be coming back.

However, in the same breath I've never been mad at a meal there. The black and blue steak pasta, the meat could be a higher grade for the price. However the sauce carries the dish! The whipped feta dip, with the hot honey you'll never miss. Best part about this place is they have bottles of Amstel Light, and can make an awesome old fashioned! Took my 75 year old dad here, first restaurant in a while that carried Amstel. It made his night, I'll forever bring him back whenever he is in town so he can have his beer! Please do not change a thing! This place is spectacular. I just hope I'm always able to find a table. I would sit at the bar and be there more if the bar was just a bit bigger!

No customer should be mistreated or pushed out based on unfounded claims that they "make people uncomfortable." Good hospitality means welcoming everyone fairly and professionally. Unfortunately, that is no longer what you'll find here.

From start to finish everything was great. We were seated at our quoted time. Drinks and food delivered quickly. Our server made sure we had everything we needed. Food was cooked to our requests and tasted delicious. The kids LOVED it! And our kids are picky, unfortunately. The pancakes as big as their head were a big hit! It is a tad bit loud in the restaurant, that is the only negative. Parking - free! Can get kind of hectic if you go on a weekend morning.

It wasn't until I got back to my apartments that I realized they had left out his chicken sausage, and the fruit cup wasn't secured properly so his waffle was soggy . I called back spoke the manager Megan, explain my order is missing items and in a rush the packed the order carelessly. Megan then proceeds to tell me she can't refund the whole order, I say fair enough but I'm only paying for the apple juice. Megan then tells me to hold on. An employee ask her a question Megan then proceeds tell the employee she can't deal with this "fucking shit" ! Hangs up the phone and switches the lines to after hours. Never called back. They have a lot of issues customers routinely having quality issues. I figured a refund is easier for everybody involved since they're closed but instead I got a "fuck you"! It's an absolute show expect to wait forever and for the food to not live up to the price in terms of quality. I hate giving bad reviews but this one was well earned. I would suggest Red Bicycle cafe. It's owned by a charming couple who are just amazing people. Very warm and inviting everything is always on point they serve hot food, a bit pricey but well worth it. Go for the food stay for the vibes.
