The Cafe Where Grown Folks Play! — Restaurant in Bremen Township

I am always on the hunt for a good cafe and was particurlary excited to stumble on this one! It is extremely clean, spacious, and most importantly good.

I’d intended to only do take-out but ultimately ended up staying because of how pleasant the owner was. I ordered a cold brew, an iced mint tea, a breakfast bun, and a breakfast plate. The food was made fresh and the drinks were well made. Our meal and drinks were so good, we decided to get drinks to go! I will be back to try a plain espresso and a latte for the full cafe experience.

Outside of this being a new business (open 6-months now), it is apparent that things are slower for them and while I can understand why, I’m still shocked.

The space is well decorated and offers more than what you might expect the average coffee shop to include. They have books free to read, games for anyone to play, and even host themed nights like line dancing. They have a generous menu filled with items beyond the normal bagel/cookie cafe offering and even have alcoholic beverages as well.

I can honestly say stepping into the space it felt well loved despite being empty at the time of my visit. That said, there are some external factors that might be deterents to others (and I strongly suggest anyone interested looks past them)! In an era of gambling cafes, the business name reads as if it’d be similar to a Dotty’s or Darla’s. It’s not that at all. While they do offer a small corner with scratch off tickets or host nights dedicated, there are no gaming machines. The shopping center the business is located in needs updating. You’ll also pass through double doors to enter the cafe with outdated signs and flyers that make it feel like a less than premium experience. Despite this, once you cross fully enter the cafe it is a world removed. It is a quiet, clean, and inviting space to be in.

Anyone in the mood for coffee, tea, desserts, or even a great sandwich...

Randomly ended up here looking for coffee and this was a hidden gem I came across. I liked the setup of this spot a lot as it has a welcoming feel with the decor. I walked in and ordered a regular coffee plus I got a Breakfast Bun. I did wait a little longer than expected for the order but being a new business, I did understand. The Breakfast Bun is decent with my choice of eggs (over medium), and turkey bacon on a brioche bun. 8.5. The sandwich was warm, fluffy, and again decent ngl. I did get to try their Americano coffee too and this was way better than the house drip to me. Overall, this spot has the potential to be a staple out here, so I hope they get an opportunity to provide quality service to the...

This place has TWO sides to it-- the cafe side and the game lounge. I hosted game night on the lounge side for my birthday and it was PERFECT! The vibe was just right—laid-back but lively enough and with a live DJ to keep everyone entertained. Some of my guests played games (chess, cards, Left-Right-Center) and some played on the slot machines in the back room. The food and drinks were on point, and Chris made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to for...
