The food is PHENOMENAL, the service is IMPECCABLE. I wish the staff here worked at every restaurant I could visit because they are amazing people. It's my first time visiting as I was in the area and I'm glad I choose this place but the guy at the register helped me pick everything off what he recommended and he didn't miss. The inside of this place is so UNIQUE and calming. I don't want to leave this place.

Their bagel sandwich on Asiago bagel was really good although the bacon could have been cooked a little longer. Their regular lattes are piping hot which makes drinking it nice for a longer period of time. The staff was nice and attentive and the place itself has plenty of seating by inside and also outside. Overall a great experience.

We had tried to book another weekend but couldn't get a place so we were pleasantly surprised to get in. The decor was spot on for the event. The owner/staff clearly put some thought into this as you can see from the photos posted with this review. The menu was far more extensive than I was expecting. Endless tea, 2 sandwiches, 2 scones, lemon curd and clotted cream, kale salad, candy apple, bread pudding, pumpkin seeds, and a beverage "The Raven." All made in house with evident pride. Not only that, but there were *five* sandwiches to choose from and *6* scones to choose from. And these were not small sandwiches or scones. I honestly could not eat everything we were served. None of us could, though we tried. And there were seemingly a couple of dozen teas to choose from. I'm sure the style of scones served (quite moist, almost muffin like) are not to everyone's taste. The overall flavor profile was a bit sweet for me. I really enjoyed the lemon curd and clotted cream for the break it gave from the sweetness. The candy apple was gorgeous purple sparkly but pretty much impossible to eat and tasted one note like sugar. But it worked very well as a garnish! But we had an amazing time and will make it a regular appointment on our social eating schedule. Service was attentive but not overbearing.

And if you're visiting while the Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival is going on, they have a large table set up at the front with all kinds of baked pumpkin treats.
