First off the window art is so sweet and the vibes are cozy. I had an iced coffee with diary free and sugar free vanilla (which is very hard to do to make taste good), but it was perfect!! I also ordered the BYO everything bagel sammy. My daughter had a raspberry and choco chip muffin and a refresher. Everything was so good. I've recently had to take a break from gluten because of health concerns, but I will definitely be back to support this local business. I highly recommend to anyone even if you aren't gluten free on the regular, because their food is good regardless.

I was recently diagnosed with celiac, so when I realized everything was gluten free, I was honestly overwhelmed with excitement. I wanted to try everything. Since it was after 11, I decided on a chicken quesadilla--and wow. It was crispy, cheesy, and everything I've been missing about quesadillas. The coffee was delicious too. We split a peanut butter sandwich cookie, which was absolutely incredible. I also took a blueberry muffin to go because I knew I'd want it the next day--and I was blown away all over again when I enjoyed it with my coffee at home. This is definitely going to be a regular stop for me!

It's has the vibe of a New York deli and offers everything from a small market and bakery items to a full sit-down restaurant. They serve you several pickles while you wait to order.

Parking is easy since the deli is in a strip mall with plenty of parking spaces.

Fantastic! Prices are still decent and portions are generous. Plenty of parking.

Tried again, much better coffee…read more This place had a very awesome breakfast sandwich, and wanted to try them again. Opted for the blueberry pancake cold brew, along with a piece of banana bread and an egg sandwich with turkey. Food was delivered outside, and I took my pics. The breakfast sandwich is delightful. Everything is seasoned, punchy, and plentiful. The bread was grilled on a panini griddle, but didn't toast. So there wasn't a lot of contrast in textures. But the egg was fluffy, had a cheese skirt, garlic aoli is strong, and the bread is baked fresh. The cold brew was strong, but the cold foam on top mellowed the coffee out and gave it a nice blueberry and yeasty sip. Very similar to a blueberry pancake which the drink is named for. Good but leaned heavy on the cold foam. Banana bread was a bit gummy. Too much banana and not enough flour nor sugar. Not bad, but the weakest bite of them all. Price was high, at about 24 for the 3 items. The quality is worth the price point, and it's a great but somewhat limited breakfast spot for the area. If you want an avocado toast, breakfast sandwich with actual flavor, and wicked strong coffee, then this place does it well. Baked goods can be a bit random in quality, but the savory fare is great

I went with the classic Italian preparation, and I have to say it was well above standard. Other than meat, they source a rather remarkable amount of products given the relatively small size of the store. They have a couple of higher end pet foods, sheep products, some craft sodas, and really just a number of other odds and ends. Service is great, and you can tell they have a stream of regulars. I probably won't stop in every day, but I do hope to make it in every two weeks or so. This is easily the best food I've found within a stone's throw of UConn.

This particular location is in a small shopping plaza in Vernon. The inside looks like an independent bakery. They have a huge assortment of breads, they can make sandwiches upon request or from the menu. Additionally they also make salads, cookies and coffee. I'll have to note, the two teenage girls working here weren't friendly, welcoming or capable of smiling, maybe they are new, but something needs to change. I got the Turkey Goddess sandwich on Wheat Seeded Bread. I also got an iced coffee. They serve Peet's coffee. This combo was only $13. This bread was very fresh, flavorful and covered in seeds. It was filled with tomato, onion, lettuce, Havarti cheese, avocado spread and turkey. It also came with a pickle, but it was way too salty for me. This sandwich was very filling, fresh and tasty. My friend got a similar one and she also enjoyed it.

There are plenty of cozy places to sit both inside and outside, and today they even had a musician performing on the patio, which made for such a relaxing atmosphere. We ordered breakfast and iced coffee from the café. The Brown Sugar Maple Croissant Breakfast Sandwich was absolutely delicious! Even though the café was very busy, the ordering line moved quickly, and they brought our drinks and food right to our table--a really nice touch. We also stopped by the bakery. Even later in the morning, there was still a great selection of baked goods. We brought home strawberry lemonade muffins to enjoy tomorrow, and I can't wait to try them. The general store was filled with adorable locally made products, along with a nice selection of take-and-bake meals that we'll definitely be coming back for. The entire property is thoughtfully designed with charming little seating areas scattered throughout. It's the kind of place where you want to slow down, relax, and spend a while exploring. One tip: the front parking lots are small, but there's a much larger parking area in the back. This is definitely a new favorite for us, and we'll be back again soon!

It was expected that I check out at the self checkout. The girl that was standing near the register didn't even look up from her phone the entire time I was there.
