The space is incredibly comfortable: leather sofas, a relaxed lounge area, and nice seasonal decor. The Jack‑O‑Latte is pumpkin spice vanilla done right: not syrupy, not overly sweet, just balanced enough that you can still taste the beans, and you want to. The repurposed boxcars give the place character, and the parking lot tells the rest of the story...people genuinely like it here. My breakfast burrito tasted surprisingly gourmet, down to the pickled red onions. Coffee is roasted locally and you can tell. It's across from the Catholic church I accidentally pulled into first. Everyone should try it. They get the fundamentals right: if I order a flavor, I don't want a liquid pastry. I want good coffee that can stand on its own. Brick Road Coffee nails it. Nice job. PS: Thank you again to the kind gal who went out of her way to come tell me I was in the wrong (pick up) line and not in the order here one.

The Peanut Butter Macchiato Coffee I ordered may sound weird but it tasted so delicious. I was actually recommended to the cashier who was pretty chill. i also ordered a Honey Chicken Biscuit was pretty good but not like groundbreaking or anything.

The place was clean and everything is well presented. The menu contains so many choices, from french-pressed coffees, to lattes, fresh juices, pancakes, waffles and sandwiches. They even have vegan options which I thoroughly enjoy. The vegan pancakes are the best in the area but bring a hearty appetite for real. The first time we visited, our waitress was Dasia. Even though the restaurant was pretty busy, she greeted us with a warm smile and great attitude. She took the time to explain the menu and offer suggestions. We started with the french pressed coffee and drinks and hot cinnamon rolls. For breakfast we ordered the vegan pancakes and sub eggs, pavo cubano and berry chocolate pancakes with eggs. The entire time Dasia kept checking on us and keeping us informed on the status of our order. Once the meals came, she made sure we were satisfied with our food. Checked on us several times which was great service. Everything was really good and hot. Shout out to the kitchen staff and cooks. Dasia put the C in customer service. In a word she was very attentive, friendly and made the entire visit very pleasant and enjoyable. Highly recommend Turning Point

Was looking forward to trying this place with a friend since we both are a fan of a good brunch…read more Unfortunately, I didn't love my food. Maybe i just ordered the wrong thing. I might try again since I like the atmosphere and the service- and the fact that they do French press with lots of selections. Don't waste your money on the special lobster avocado toast though - it is not worth the extra money! Pros: Staff was friendly and helpful. D'Asia got us a table outside even though they hadn't been seating out there yet because of a potential for rain. We got no rain and it was a nice day to sit outside. Inside is clean, bright and has maybe a minimalist modern farmhouse vibe. Menu has a decent amount of selection without being overwhelming with some unique looking opportunities. Cons: My friend ordered the classic eggs Benedict and I got one of the lobster specials- the lobster avocado toast. Not sure how long these specials are around . I asked for the eggs over medium and the toast to be extra crispy because avocado toast is not good when it's all soggy. When I got my order it seemed like the multigrain bread did not get toasted at all- maybe it was lightly toasted at one point, but it certainly was never crispy and there were no toast marks on it. There was not a lot of flavor to the toppings so I was hoping that it would save the whole thing but it was just kind of a soggy mess and frankly the lobster was kind of fishy. Also, the eggs were not done over medium as I requested. I could've gotten over this if the meal itself was any good but it was all pretty disappointing. I think if I ever dare to order the avocado toast here at some point I will definitely ask for the toast on the side lol When I asked to substitute the greens, which comes as a side automatically but costs $3.50 if added I was told potatoes were the only option to be subbed. I wanted some more protein so asked about subbing bacon and just paying the extra .25 over what the potatoes cost as a side (4.50) but was told I'd have to pay for it is as a separate side entirely, which is $4.75. No turning point is probably not the only restaurant doing this but it's pretty frustrating and unexplainable as to why I don't get at least the $3.50 credit that the greens would be. Or how about you just take the greens off and I get $3.50 back lol. D'Asia was kind enough to offer me an alternative by getting crushed bacon on top of my avocado toast for a dollar extra which I was glad I did because it was definitely needed to help with the flavor on the toast! And D'Asia was kind enough tonight charge me the extra dollar in the end. Unfortunately, I still got served the greens anyways which I was trying to avoid since cyclaspora is a thing these days My friends classic egg Benedict was just ok. She did find a hair in it, but she couldn't swear it wasn't hers because it was a windy day. Finally, it was troubling that there was absolutely zero toilet paper in the women's bathroom. Which we did didn't realize of course, until we went to look for it. There were only two stalls and we were both out of luck.

We got a pain suisse and two coffees. She was shocked by the high prices. I'm fine with that when the experience matches. Sadly, neither of us liked our coffees at all and literally threw them out after a few sips. They only had Stevia (vs Splenda, Equal or others), which may be what skewed the flavor for me. The pasty was good, nice and flaky. I find the staff to not be overly friendly. They had a steady line, so clearly a lot of people love this place and I have had some stellar desserts. But if I can't get a good cup of coffee, sit in a cute area (they have no inside space), I will choose another spot.

I didn't see on the menu where there were the two choices. Saw the cups after I ordered.

Whether you're planning a breakfast or lunch date with a friend, grabbing a coffee, or just need a cozy workspace to get some things done, Brecotea is the place. This bakery offers both sweet and savory treats! I ordered the Bacon Stick, which was to die for-- the cheese and bacon combo just melted in my mouth., The Savory Chicken Sandwich, which now lives rent-free in my head, was perfectly seasoned and toasted to perfection. Finally the Strawberry Danish, which was just okay. The minute I walked through the door, I was greeted by both delicious treats and friendly service. The staff was efficient, attentive, and welcoming. I would highly recommend this bakery and definitely plan to visit again soon!
