We stayed at a nearby hotel and loved this gem around the corner! We went several times for breakfast and lunch during our stay, and our only regret is not getting to try more of the menu. The coffee, food, and drinks were consistently good, but more importantly was the excellent service we received by our server Esteban every time. He was very nice and attentive, and even gave us some recommendations of things to see around the area that we appreciated.
