What an adorable place! We stumbled on this when we were heading out of town leaving Sister Bay. We came for breakfast and the menu looked limited at first glance. However, they had so mamy delicious things to choose from! The breakfast burrito was honestly the best I have had! Paired with the potato rings (which are like tater tots shaped like a thick onion ring) this was a delicious meal! My companion had a slice of the sour cream coffee cake, which they said was moist and good but lacked "a lot of flavor but was still good." However, the bakery cases they have there look divine! They have cakes, pastries, coffee cakes, danishes, muffins & more. We ordered a slice of cheesecake to go which was decent but not the flavor we asked for. We were long gone before we discovered the mixup - still good though so we didn't mind. The staff was so sweet and the drinks were good. My seasonal coffee was exceptional. The building is rusticly modern. It was so cute! Next time we are up in DC I would go back, no question, and would get the exact same meal - it was that good. But I bet their avocado toast, breakfast sandwich or lox & bagels are yummy too! I also look forward to trying more bakery items. It was very hard to choose only one!...

The food was slow to be served, despite there being hardly anyone there, and the limited menu was made worse when the either didn’t have fries or their fryer was down. Either way, all our food was extremely greasy and while presented well, lacked seasoning and flavor.
Maybe breakfast is much better, but they stop serving it at 11am, so at 11:15 we had no choice but their paltry lunch options or premade salad.
It’s also very dimly lit and delicious extremely cold, but they have a patio so that isn’t too big of an issue. Hoping this was just a one-off...
Read moreWe have come here a few times and earlier in the summer we had amazing experiences. However later in the summer this year that service has decreased. Some of the staff doesn’t understand what you’re asking so when you order they charge and serve you for the wrong thing. It is also extremely overpriced, and while I understand things are getting more expensive you can purchase the same things for 4 or 5 dollars cheaper from any other coffee shop. Specifically, I recently went and ordered the 24oz cherry blossom matcha which was $9.50, and the cup came half full. The other half? Was foam. which quickly evaporated into the drink and revealed the drink was only maybe 45% full. When i asked employees they said “they layer foam”. Even so, they should not be charging 9.50 for what was maybe...
