My first time trying an iced coffee with the coffee cubes in them. It really makes the beverage strong, smooth and avoids that straight-up watered down taste.

They had a very nice space for the weather. They were quite busy and our server warned us it was going to take a long time due to the amount of patrons. This would have been good to know before waiting 40 minutes to be seated. Good thing is that we were ready with our food order, because it may have taken another forever between our drink and food orders. Our spiced chai was full of cinnamon, small, and ok. After an hour of waiting, we finally got our Mountain Man Hash that looked huge! Unfortunately, its physical size did not deliver in flavor. Even with its pork green chili, this dish was disappointing. The green sauce was not spicy; the spiced chai was hotter than the greed chili. The pork was well cooked but flavorless. The hash browns were soggy and also insipid. The eggs did not save this dish. Overall, this visit was quite disappointing. For the prices they had on their menu, I was expecting an almost 2 hour wait to be worth it. However, it was quite the opposite. Even when we wanted to get out of this place after eating, service kept us hostage for another 20 minutes. I am quite unsure which gods come to this garden.

The interior has charm. The food, unfortunately, does not…read more I ordered the tofu scramble breakfast burrito, a dish that sounds forgiving but rather quickly exposes whether a kitchen knows what to do with tofu. Here, it did not. The scramble was bland, the seasoning barely perceptible, and the burrito lacked anything resembling a defining flavor. Cholula provided most of the excitement. A single slice of orange arrived alongside it, less a garnish than an afterthought. The dish ultimately tasted like precisely what it appeared to be: tofu dusted with turmeric and wrapped in a tortilla. The service model was equally puzzling. Drinks are collected yourself, dishes are cleared yourself, water is not brought to the table, and my meal arrived with a fork but no knife. None of this is inherently objectionable, but it helps to explain the system, particularly to first-time visitors. A restaurant cannot expect guests to understand its rules when no one bothers to tell them what they are. The coffee was good, though sweeteners required another small scavenger hunt. Perhaps regulars know exactly where everything is, clear their plates without thinking, and return happily for the atmosphere. For a visitor, however, the "vibes" were doing considerably more work than the kitchen.

This has been put on our no list now. When we ordered today, my son asked about Caesar salad and the woman at the counter did not say that they didn't have them. Then when they brought the food out, she said it's not an option. Why not say it when we ordered. Last time my bowl was missing the goat cheese, and I had to ask for it. I also added chicken and mushrooms to my bowl and I literally received about 5-6 mushrooms, which equals more than a dollar a mushroom. This time, my side salad was supposed to have balsamic and had another dressing. My son had the burger and said that the consistency was weird. My other son had the same sandwich he always has and the bread was different, though the menu didn't indicate that it was.

I asked (at the time I asked for ice) if they don't put ice in their smoothies. The woman, who was different than the one who made it, said it depends on who makes it. It is named ICED brew smoothie. The name would imply it would be cold. It was also very thin, likely because of the lack of ice. For the $16 I paid: $12, plus the add ins of kale, almond butter and protein powder, this was definitely not worth the $. I could not recommend that you order this. I did try their granola bar which was very good.

We ordered three different toasts and every single one was bland, dry, and forgettable- beautiful as they were. The OG avocado toast was especially disappointing. It wasn't fresh avocado at all - you could taste that artificial, sour, frozen-container spread. Everything is overpriced for what you get: dry bread, artificial toppings, and a whole lot of attitude - but why though? The flavors were either off or nonexistent. Overall, very sad, very overpriced, and absolutely not worth it. You're better off going to Starbucks or Dunkin- I promise.

The French toast was so fluffy and perfectly cooked I'd give it a solid 10/10, especially with the fresh fruit and maple syrup on top. My fiancé loved his turkey sandwich too; he couldn't stop raving about the freshness of the ingredients.

Drinks are going to be drinking, Not that I've gotten that out of the way... I've always heard such great things about Bird Tree Cafe. And I hadn't gone until yesterday! Figured I'd go before the farmers market across the street in Acacia Park. I got the bookworm latte and it was so good. I was worried it would be too sweet (it was a little sweet), but the brown sugar cinnamon syrup they make really balanced it out. It was so good. It was creamy, dreamy, and the caramel was decadent. I didn't get any food--just the coffee unfortunately, but I do plan on coming back! $7.25 (I think) for a latte is a bit pricey, but the drink is really good. So if you're gonna spend a bit extra, go there for a coffee instead of Starbucks. Service was quick for a long line and the hanging plants and lights made for such a great vibe. I cannot wait to come back and try their breakfast and more lattes!
