First off note that they are no longer on Pearl but on Alpine next to Santo in the shopping center…read morewith Ideal Market/Alpine Whole Foods. I'll get the Yelp page fixed later today. We had heard of this cafe as they had been food hosts at a party at a Kühl on Pearl and were hoping to actually eat in their cafe when they coincidentally moved next door to one of our favorite local eateries. We were in the neighborhood around lunchtime so we stopped in when we arrived it was busy, by the time we left, it was packed. It's a unique menu fit for most palates and healthy as can be. It attracts athletes if all ages, healthy eaters of all types. You won't find much meat but there is some. It also as an Asian flair with offerings of congee and fried chicken sides, fish, rice and veggies of all sorts including kimchi . Japanese egg salad sandwiches too. That's one I need to try next time. Today we both chose the mushroom congee with 7 minute egg and a hot drink. A spicy chai with oat milk for my husband and berry hibiscus tea for me. We both enjoyed our meals but just a bit too much garlic for me but just right for my husband and must others too. I loved the volumes of mushrooms and the sprinkles of spices on the whole egg. The egg was done perfectly. My husband brought home a side order of popcorn chicken as I will be at a meeting so he will be eating dinner alone. The service was great, everyone friendly and helpful the cafe bright and clean and the ordering counter moves fast. They deliver to and clear the tables. More quick casual places should do this to avoid the piles of debris at bins in the seating area I often see. There is a flat panel screen on the wall featuring cyclists in the wild given that energy snacks were the first products of this company and much for sale here too. The mix of diners covered the spectrum of adults you would expect in Boulder. This cafe is only breakfast and lunch so come when convenient earlier in the day. Parking is free and always available in this center. Lots of construction around the intersection so plan your trip to get into the lot via Alpine and not Broadway. That Broadway construction will be ongoing for a while. It's also a good place to arrive by bike. Pricing was very affordable and variety of meals wide.

Clean food and free flowing Skratch!…read more Haven't tried most menu items yet at this location (they moved in August). Disappointed to hear reports the breakfast burrito has suffered shrinkflation?! Undecided if this location closer to me in north Boulder is better and more convenient?? Although further from me, the old Pearl St spot made it easier to link up errands.

I loved going in the summertime because they would have the patio fully open, with fairy lights, and stay open pretty late. They were very friendly and dog-friendly in the back patio area. I've bought a book once that was by a local artist/limited there and loved it!

There's plenty of seating in the back if not occupied by students on a busy day. Their coffee isn't the best, we love Ozo or Boxcar on the same pearl street. But if there's no long line, and you're lucky you'll get a decent server who'll make you a good drink and you'll have a good day. I have been here plenty of times, best experience at the bookstore always and had mixed experiences at their coffee shop

The staff here are really the sweetest, they really take care of every customer and want you to have the best experience. Highlights for the menu: the ochazuke is SO good and comforting and the chocolate chip cookies are TO DIE FOR. The fizzy matcha and espresso yuzu drinks were also so so good! But truly you cannot go wrong with anything.

We live in Denver and Dry Storage alone is enough of a reason to go to Boulder. Most recently we…read morestopped by after a hike. What can I say? We love dry storage for the sweet marriage of Japanese fare with sourdough & laminated pastries. Where else could you get an amazing croissant breakfast sandwich alongside fresh onigiri and be so glad you tried both?? The coffee here is excellent as well, and we love browsing some of the curated offerings on their floating shelves. If you enjoy making your own sourdough, do not pass up the yecora rojo flour. It makes the best sourdough. If not, make sure to take home a sourdough loaf. There is seating inside and outdoors at multiple picnic benches. Service is friendly and prompt. Lastly, keep an eye out for seasonal pop events! We haven't been able to go yet but def want to.

5 Stars across the board- coffee, pastries, atmosphere, service…read more The coffee here is fantastic. Full stop. I got a cortado so I could really enjoy the espresso, and enjoy I did! The pastries are the kind you'd hope for in a dedicated bakery. Every one of them was exceptional and I could pick a favorite among the three I tried. HIGHLY recommend the: - potato rosemary danish, - kouign amman (pronounced queen aman), - and apple fritter (these tend to sell out early!) I may be back later today or tomorrow to get more of these. They're THAT good. The staff was lovely and that's worth mentioning for a coffee shop that's so good you would accept a bit of snoot. Super kind and open to offering suggestions. And atmosphere is 10/10. Grab a seat, your laptop, and some f&b and enjoy. We got a seat in a little side room with a skylight and big plant (still open to the main room) and hung out for a while. Overall, the kind of coffee shop that makes me wish I lived here to do some work here, enjoy their brews, and order their Thanksgiving pies for my fam!

The breakfast sandwich (with sausage) was good - the bun it was on was super soft and a mismatch for the structured sandwich. It ended up being hard to eat. The Roman sandwich was ok but had too much cheese. Our coffee (drip and an oatmilk latte) were good. It was busy on a Tuesday morning at 8:30, we were lucky to get a table for two.

I was in the zone working and mostly oblivious to what was going on around me until someone came up to my table and said it would be okay if I sat there for a few more minutes but I would need to leave if I didn't have a ticket. I think it's awesome for the em yo host events but it would have be nice if someone mentioned this when I showed up, ordered a drink and started working. By the way, the drink was fine but nothing special.

Overall: Food is excellent in terms of quality and flavors. I keep coming back for brunch…read more Food: Rich and all dishes I've tried so far are solid whether it's the Buddha bowl, avo toast, burrito, burger, shakshuka, jam sandwich, pancakes, French toast, chai doughnut holes or huevos. I mean, seriously, how do they make the food so good across the board?! Drinks: It is a cafe and good cafe drinks they have whether it's a matcha, chai latte, mocha, latte, or orange juice. Service: Excellent. They check in without being annoying even when it's super busy. The staff I've encountered notice nonverbal details when you need something. Space: Limited seats, so it can get packed with a wait. Indoor and outdoor options. Outdoors can be nice in the morning during summers under the umbrella - otherwise, can get really hot in sunny spots by afternoon. Cost: $$. Not cheap but not expensive. You do get what you pay for as the food is really tasty.

The seating area isn't what you see after you order, walk to the left and through the door and there are table and chairs down the hallway. Keep walking and there's a nook with more tables and chairs. Food was good. The slice of quiche was HUGE and filling. The bread of the Croque Madame that I ordered were both light and fluffy as well as chewy, it was a GREAT breakfast! We ordered a kouign amann for a little sweet bite after breakfast. It was nice and crispy at all the little edges. I really appreciated the artistry of the pastry. Parking n the street was not too tough. I'm from Los Angeles so I believe I'm always battling for parking but we found a spot a short distance away and there's lots of shops to stop and check out to keep you busy. Service was amazing, the cashier was super polite and friendly.

Sorry in advance for the lack of photos. That often happens when I'm starving!…read more We are from out of town and this looked like a fun hole in the wall. It was busy when we walked in and all the tables were full and then we were offered outside seating which we didn't know they offered. They have three tables outside and it was nice in the sun. The menu has a nice selection of typical breakfast options. They also have burgers as I saw one walk by on its way to another table. Service was good even though we were outside. Chicken fried steak - 8/10 - this was one of the better ones that I have had. The hash brown potatoes were crispy and delicious and the sunny side up eggs were cooked perfectly . Oatmeal - 6/10 - hard to have amazing oatmeal, it was fine Pancakes - 7.5/10 - these were light and airy, yummy, and huge (they were the size of the plate) This is a great place to frequent.

It's a stand alone building and was originally built as a neighborhood grocery in 1932. It has also been a a convenience store and a short lived food coop. The current us is the best it has been since I moved here 50 years ago. It was such a good model that a second location was built over in Twenty Ninth Street at the end of the pandemic when the Peets coffee space was empty. The nice thing about the Hill location is that most customers come on foot or bicycle since there is only a little street park it. If you just come by car, please be courteous to the local neighbors who must use the street for their own cars too. The coffee bar is extremely popular but they also have teas and some sodas and bottled drinks and casual non alcoholic drinks. The kitchen serves brunch and lunch style foods from classic toasts and eggs , bowls of various sorts but the kitchen closes at 3 pm and the doors close at 4. My favorite item here has always been the blueberry ricotta toast but it was dropped last fall. So sad as I know others should like to see it come back too. But though I had a classic avocado toast with a busing friend yesterday. I went with a bowl today and as u hoped I will get 2 lunches out of it. They have also slimmed the menu this year as the kitchen is really small. They have fine tuned the bowls to include aspects of two. Today I ordered the Green Goddess Grain bowl so the best and healthiest forming of two worlds. I walked down for the takeout so I could eat at home with my own drink. They also have an app so it can be ready when yo arrive. The seating is ample in good weather like today but it can also be crowded as it attracts remote workers as they have phenomenal WiFi here. It's been a real asset to the neighborhood as well as visitors too. Even though the original owner has moved, the current owner has been involved since the beginning.

Loved all the plants and decor to make the shop welcoming and bright. Seating was fairly limited or at least all tables were occupied and ended up just taking my treats to-go rather than working from the shop as I planned. Staff were relatively friendly and speed of service was average. I had an iced 16 oz vanilla latte ($6) and a bacon breakfast burrito ($10.5). Found it to be on the more expensive side for value received. Everything was good but I would order lite ice next time as it's a pretty expensive latte half displaced by ice otherwise.
