It's always nice when you stumble across something as bright and welcoming as the "Best Day Ever! Coffee + Crepes"!
For those that might not know, the mission set out by this hidden gem in town is "believing in creating opportunities and fostering independence for adults with disabilities through meaningful employment in a joyful café environment."
In an effort to beat the late August heat my wife and I picked up iced lattes with their in-house made almond milk, the Breakfast Crepe, and the Gyro Crepe with their in-house tzatziki sauce (side note - for whatever reason good tzatziki is hard to come by out here, but they absolutely nailed it!) and all of it was delicious; it even came with a cherry tomato swan on top!

Read moreEvery visit to Best Day Coffee & Crepes truly lives up to the name. It’s always the best part of my day. The food and drinks are fantastic, but what really makes this place special is the people, especially Joe.
Joe is absolutely amazing. He’s warm, attentive, and goes out of his way to make everyone feel welcome. You can tell he genuinely cares about the customers, and it shows in the energy of the whole place. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, Joe treats you like a regular.
The customer service here is consistently excellent. The whole team is friendly, quick, and thoughtful. It’s rare to find a spot where the quality of the food matches the quality of the experience, but this place gets both right every time.
Highly recommend. Thank you Joe and team for always making my day...
