    What an awesome Quincy restaurant, maybe be a bit hard to find, but very well worth it. Loved our lunch here, I had a Deli sandwich with ham and Swiss on a Dutch Crunch roll, Hubby had a hot Pastrami with Marbled Rye Bread. Great lean Pastrami. Both came with a nice bag of Chips. We loved them both. The restaurant is very clean and well laid out, with menus on all tables. When we got there, we were greeted with friendly staff and got a table. The staff was very kind and helpful with ordering. Can hardly wait to return and order another great Lunch. Well return soon!!

    We came here a little after 11am on a Friday. It was not very busy as it had just opened. We approached the counter and the young lady answered a couple of questions about the specials. My wife chose the club sandwich on multi-grain bread and I chose the meatball sandwich. We both had wanted to try the chicken noodle soup but she explained to us that it would not be ready for about 20 minutes. The young lady then went to work preparing our sandwiches which were made and delivered in a timely manner and looked delicious. We both enjoyed our sandwiches and we felt taken care of. Our only complaints would be the fact that the soup was not ready when they opened and my wife also noted that her club sandwich did not contain any cheese which seemed strange. Overall it was a good experience and we will return when in the area!

    THE best in town! Chef Krissy and her crew offer the best food and service you could ask for!

    It's supposed to be cut in half?

    Went twice for breakfast while in town. Had 2 eggs over easy with bacon and sourdough toast one day…read moreand waffle (regular, not Belgian) the next. Generous serving of bacon. Great service.

We asked for a table outside because she can't hear well, and the cafe was bustling and loud. The staff seated us, but had to move tables around outside. The hostess and a "regular" of the cafe said things like "this is what we do in a tourist economy." "We have to accommodate the tourists." As if we were a bother and they were bending over backward to accommodate us. Because my mother in law was there, and she is emotionally raw right now, I avoided conflict. So I'll say now, what I wanted to say to those snarky, rude employees Thursday: My husband's family has had a plot in the Taylorsville cemetery for longer than those two ladies been alive -- combined. His grandmother had 2 restaurants in Greenville. His mother is a fixture in the community, living through the Dixie fire and coming back to rebuild her life. Now she'll bury her husband there. My sister and brother in law worked in public service in Quincy for decades. We aren't tourists. And even if we were, you were incredibly unwelcoming. You made a sad day worse. The food was fine.

Soft serve cones... half and half is well proportioned! Worth the stop no Matter how long the line looks!!

    I would love to say this place is a good one, however, the entire experience was not good…read more Started when The cashier seemed very irritated that I had questions about the food (nobody else was in line btw). I told them I was taking it home so I'd have 20 min drive & would love a hot mocha now while I wait and shake for desert. I got a taco salad and fried zucchini with a shake- and talk about not worth it.... The shake came out first which wasn't a huge concern until 25 minutes later when I'm still standing there with no mocha, no salad and a very melted shake. They finally gave me the salad after 45 minutes and when I asked for money back for mocha they just made one quick (and lacking the extra shots of espresso I paid for). I came home and was CHARGED $14 + $5 for meat For a salad with 2tbsp of toppings, not even a tomato. There was a scoop of corn with sour cream and 3 tiny pieces of chicken. I was so angry I almost went back. The zucchini was greasy and burned. Shake I put in the freezer and ate when it came a thick and there was about .5 cup left (I had to also scrape the whip off since when I said no whip they again just didn't do it right). Again, wish I could say something nice about it besides it's a pretty lawn, however, this was a huge waste of $50 and I'll never return.

We met the owner who baked everything by hand in the back of the shop. We could see her prepping more pastries. She was so sweet, just a lovely person. You can't help but want to support her business. And then the pastries themselves were just so good, I would gain so much weight if I lived up there year around because I would eat there everyday! My dad and I shared the Ham and smoked Gouda calzone and oh my goodness was it good! Flakey crust, perfect fillings. It was delectable. I had the chocolate and banana turnover and absolutely loved it. Again, great pastry crust? And the proportions of banana to chocolate were perfect! I also loved my apricot and cheese danish. The flavors really complemented each other, and again - perfect crust! My dad tried the berry and cheese danish and the chocolate croissant and he loved them both! I don't think you could go wrong with any of the pastries here. We took our order to go and ate them the next morning and they were still delicious. It's an inviting shop, with limited seating inside along with plenty of seating outside, so it would be a great place to have a bite to eat as well!

They have microwaves for you to warm up your pastries yourself if preferred. The lady is friendly and will give you recommendations if you are having trouble deciding what to get. I was a little disappointed as there was barely any chicken in the chicken pesto calzone. However I recommend all the cake and sweets there.
