You are always greeted with a welcome when you walk in and never rushed through choosing amongst their many delicious dessert offerings. The eclair, carrot cake, cannoli and lobster tails are always a favorite. And the mini cheesecake bites, especially the banana pudding one, so very good, and a great value in my opinion for it all. Prices are very resonable and in this economy that is appreciated. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I had my first match here. At the time it was a special, banana pudding matcha. It was so delicious. After that I was hooked. My order was always a banana pudding matcha with oat milk, and strawberry syrup. That was one of the best drinks I have ever had. The banana with the matcha, with the strawberry was just an absolute delight and hard to not drink all at once. Now the special is blueberry cheesecake, and it is also a wonderful drink. Highly recommend trying this little cute shop.

Nicole was super responsive and helped us build the perfect menu for over 75 guests. For our package we picked Spinach & Artichoke Dip, double Blooming Charcuterie, Crudité Platter, Fruit Platter and a Caprese Crostini. We chose to pick up the items on the morning of the wedding and setup the table ourselves. Nicole made sure we had plenty of plates and serve ware. She helped to make ensure we had gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options. Everything was so fresh, delicious and beautifully arranged. They only thing I noticed was we had an abundance of spinach dip left. It was delicious, but I think we could've used more naan bread or we might have been fine with a smaller portion. All the other plates were empty by the end of the night. Nicole also included some really special on theme cheeses on our boards knowing that we had The Taco Truck of Clinton for dinner. We couldn't have asked for a better, more mouthwatering and beautiful spread for our wedding. Highly recommend!

This is an interesting spot in downtown Dundee. Located on the fringe of the business district in…read morewhat appears to have been a residential property built several decades ago, it could be easy to overlook. But it is done very nicely inside with a very inviting ambiance and it has an attractive appeal. I am giving this place the benefit of the doubt with four stars because it is a bit of a mixed review. Our experience was mostly positive, however. As mentioned, the decor is quite lovely. It exudes the country style ambiance and I like the way their front counter is set up to present a country store look. But it seems to be a country store and deli in one. I think they could do a good job of this except they really don't quite have the space to pull it off as well as they could. It's a bit cramped and the seating space is very, very limited with perhaps enough room for six or eight patrons. We were fortunate no one else was there when we visited such that we were able to sit at one of the tables to have our lunch. To be fair, they may be targeting take-away patrons more than eat-in customers. Another aspect of the mixed reviews was the food. First, I have to say I loved the creative names they presented for their daily fare in honor of Christmas, using the Home Alone movie as a basis. For example, I had the Look-What-You-Did-You-Little-Jerk Chicken Sandwich. The menu was rather limited in number of offerings, but there were enough. The soups were quite tempting with Stuffed Pepper and Baked Potato available. Both were excellent. My wife made a lunch just from the Stuffed Pepper soup. The Jerk Chicken, however, did not have much jerk to it. It might have been better named Exemplar or Paragon Chicken, because it was not at all Jerky. In fact, it was rather plain and dry. I saved half and used a mayo/mustard combo as a dip when I ate my leftover...and it was much better. I will say that the portion was very good, however. It was more than I needed to eat in one sitting. The prices also took me a little aback. For two cups of soup, one wrap with chips, a coffee, a latte, a cookie and a gift container of five macarons, our total bill was $43.00. Take away the macarons, which were not part of lunch, and it was still $27. But given that my wife's lunch was a cup of soup, a latte and half a cookie, $13.50 per person is a little steep. Maybe it's just that everything is getting over-the-top expensive everywhere, but this just struck me as a bit much. Overall, it was a very pleasant little shop with good presentation, good coffee, tasty soup and nice sweets. The wrap needed a little something extra but otherwise, it was pretty good. I'd like to give it another try sometime.
