I first learned of this cafe while on Tik Tok. I thought it was in Midlothian which is not very…read moreclose to my home, but actually visited this weekend and it is right near the arboretum. It is a hidden gem. It appeared that they had more than a cafe, but an actual sit in restaurant. I solely went here for the dubai chocolate covered Strawberries and ordered this at the walk up window. The serving was huge and I could have easily shared this with 6 people and I felt this justified the price. I could not finish it all so I asked my child to put it in the fride. The next day, I removed all of the strawberries and reheated the chocolate. With whatever chocolate was left over, I put over some grapes. It was delicious also. I'd like to go back and try the restaurant which served halal options and some of the waffle options.

Bright and airy space, almost like a spa!…read more Quiet when I came in weekday afternoon. Calming spot to grab a treat, get some work done/journal, or catch up with friends in an aesthetic and modern cafe. Ordered the paradise tea with mango and avocado. I loved the textures and layers of flavors. The drink was filling and lasted me a while, not watery but refreshing. The mango tasted fresh and avocado creamy. I haven't tried the pastries at this location, but have at their other Richmond cafe. Great cakes and buns made fresh in-house. Easy to find parking at the lot outside. Service is pretty quick.

The ambiance was clean and orderly. Upon entering, you grab a serving tray lined with parchment and some tongs. The items are in a glass enclosed display that you have to open and place your selections on your tray for purchase. I settled on the pistachio cream filled pecan pastry, the almond twist, and strawberry shortcake. The beverage menu was extensive: matcha, flavored teas, cocoa, espresso/coffee, and more. We were greeted by pleasant staff at checkout and our orders placed in a parchment type bag for take out. They also have seating inside. The pastries were just sweet enough without being overly sweet, which I like. The pistachio cream was a perfect compliment to the pecan encrusted pastry. The almond twist was both flaky and crunchy with the sliced almonds on top, and the strawberry shortcake had layers of real strawberries, whipped topping and yellow cake that was moist. All were fresh. All in all, a great place to stop by for a morning pastry treat and tea/coffee while in the area,

But I was greeted with a colorful large space instead. This place has everything creative from a gift shop with so many unique items, to a large open studio space in the back and a cafe area with drinks/food items. The food items offered are a little limited to mainly breakfast items and sandwiches but the grilled cheese I ordered was the best piece of nostalgia I could have. It was buttery and toasted to perfection. The drink menu is extensive with something for everyone, they also have a variety of locally baked pastries/goods for sale. In addition to my sandwich I got the lavender lemonade lotus drink and a red velvet cake pop. All delicious! The staff was very friendly and even answered my questions about how the open studio worked as I ordered. I will definitely be back to paint something fun and maybe indulge my inner child with another grilled cheese!

I came around 2pm on saturday for brunch, and there was no line (compared to earlier morning rush…read morei've experienced here) I tried the smoked salmon. it's SO good.

I would have preferred it didn't, but I know for next time! plenty of parking, they also have outdoor seating and indoor booths or tables. friendly staff. they don't bring the food to your table.

I also noticed that we didn't receive any sauces (ie, chimichurri) for the empanadas. Not sure if I caught them off-guard or something! The pastries themselves tasted fresh and not too sweet, and I feel like the best time to go is when they're open first thing in the morning; I also feel that their items do sell out quickly. Staff were super friendly, welcoming, and kind. There were plenty of seating inside, and ample parking in this strip plaza lot. +missing items T___T +friendly service! +plenty of parking

It is a cool place to spend time in town, grab a coffee, and do some solid people watching. The breakfast burrito is great, and the coffee is pretty good too. The staff is extremely nice, and everything always comes out as quickly as possible, which I really appreciate. It is not the best place to work from home during the winter. The Wi-Fi can be a bit spotty at times, and there is no easily accessible power, which makes longer work sessions tough. When the weather is nice, though, their screened-in outdoor seating is a great place to work for a few hours. Overall, it is an easy spot to recommend, whether you are stopping by for breakfast, hanging out with friends, or just looking for a relaxed place to spend some time.
