Ask for your blueberry muffin to be toasted and buttered and prepare to have your mind blown. I've…read moreconsumed my fair share of blueberry muffins, perhaps an inordinate and unhealthy amount, and this was by far the best muffin period I've ever had. There were a number of other things I wanted to try in the pastry display, as well as a wide variety of sandwiches (including a beef tenderloin and a pork), but admittedly, after splitting a muffin, I was kind of tapped out. Weak. The bakery is located right by the beach so perfect for grabbing a sandwich and taking it to go. We had to wait a bit to get our muffin but to be expected for late weekend mornings. Bring cash to avoid a surcharge for CC transactions. There's a parking lot behind the bakery but just a warning that there are signs plastered everywhere that you should only park there if you're a customer and it's NOT for general beach parking. No idea if they tow but I'd err on the side of caution.

This could have been a nice experience but after our first visit today we will never set foot in…read morehere again though we live just a couple of miles away. My husband and I and two relatives met for breakfast here this morning. When we arrived this small place was busy and there was only one seating area available for the 4 of us. It happened to be near to the music speakers which isn't ever a great option but although the music was a bit loud it was otherwise "soft rock". Since we had no other seating choice, we had to take those seats. Two of us ordered coffee (okay) and blueberry muffins (okay.) My husband ordered a coffee (okay) and a pastry. The 4th person ordered a cold brew coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Upon breaking into his pastry (I forget exactly what it was) my husband found a long dark hair that was baked into it. Yuck. He went back to the counter to return it. My husband said the young woman (long dark hair) behind the counter was nonplussed, did not apologize, was not at all contrite, showed none of the kindness an establishment worker should show when confronted with a situation like this. Then, somewhat begrudgingly my husband said, she gave him a fresh pastry. Thank God the disgusting hair was literally baked into the pastry or she might have blamed one of us for placing it there. Her attitude with my husband made him think she suspected "foul play" which is why he thought to point out that half the hair was hanging out of the pastry and the rest of it was baked in. (Sorry, this is disgusting I know) That was bad customer service attitude #1. As we continued to eat and chat, the once mellow music coming out of the nearby speakers turned into a grating hard rock song. Awful. We couldn't hear ourselves talk. Bad customer service attitude #2 was about to happen and the last straw. Nicely, one of us asked the same gal at the counter if she could turn the music down. The young woman at the counter said: "I'll see if I can." Really!?!?!? She disappeared into the back and almost immediately out stormed a man with an apron on who began by scolding us!!! He said: "You wouldn't be bothered by the music if you weren't sitting where you are near the speakers." Wow!!! Although dumbfounded by his unfriendly attitude and overt aggression, one of us explained to him that we were sitting where we were as it was the only option when we arrived. Without missing a beat he "mansplained" that he would NOT turn the music down as it was for ALL the patrons to enjoy. The irony of this is that the initial crowds had dispersed at this point and besides the 4 of us, there were now only two older gentlemen in the place who I am going to hazard a wild guess were likely not enjoying the particular music that was playing then either. Instead, we simply opted to pick up our food, coffee cups, jackets, two handbags and we switched tables. It was a hassle to do so quite frankly. We were offered no assistance as we struggled with our food, cups and belongings. If it had been just my husband and me we would have left everything on the table, picked up our stuff and walked out the door. Nothing was that great that I would have minded walking away from it all. Super bad vibes here! I have never once been in an establishment where on the very, very rare occasion I have asked to have music turned down that it wasn't turned down. We weren't going to be there for very long; they could blast their hard rock again once we left. This is a food establishment not a disco nor a music venue. I believe the owners must hope that people will sit, enjoy some food and coffee and a chat or maybe if one is solo, read a book. Nope! Apparently you must enjoy the music too no matter how grating or how loud or what the staff mandates that you must listen to. On another note if you still decide to come to this miserable place, be warned that they will charge you 3.99% (please...call it 4%) more to use a credit card. There are so many other places to go on the south shore for breakfast where peace and pleasantness reign supreme. This is a hard pass imo. Pity all this because the two relatives we were with had previously enjoyed this place which is why the four of us were there to begin with. But now the owner has lost 4 local customers and anyone else I can convince in my personal orbit to go elsewhere. Rude customer service is not a forgivable offense in my book. Even if the end result was not to turn the music down, the reaction to our request could have been done in a much kinder manner. "Can I help you move to another table?" is a thought. Owner, if that's who you were in the green apron with no beard nor hair net: You clearly don't deserve nor do you apparently need, (based on your attitude "sir"), our money or our patronage. I'll wait for an angry owner response to this review. I'll take an educated guess based on his reaction to us that impulse control may not be his strong suit. Yawn.

The cafe itself is bright and sunny, with a handful of tables and counters to sit at. There's always a steady stream of business, but it's relatively quiet, which makes it a nice place to get some work done. They also have tons of games and books to keep your little ones entertained. It's a pretty simple spot, but they have a relatively big menu for a cute little neighborhood spot. You can get everything from ice cream and acai bowls to pastries and breakfast classics. There's nothing too crazy or creative about their offerings, but everything I've tried has been tasty. My go-tos here are the breakfast burrito, smoothies, and the mediterranean avocado toast--and don't sleep on the homemade pop-tarts when they have them! I also almost always grab a latte with one of their many, many flavored syrup options. If you're looking for an upscale city cafe with unique, artisanal offerings, this ain't it. But the food is good, the staff is so friendly, and it's got a really nice community feel. I'm a fan!
