Wonderful place with a real neighborhood vibe, and a kitchen well above the cut for a coffee shop. Was immediately on a first-name basis with the owner and staff. A regular haunt for me!

Marcela LunaFebruary 27, 2018Great service! Everything from the eggs, to the toast, to the bacon even the greens was good. The pancakes were huuuuge so its good if you share that with someone else even 2-3 people can share it.
Kate MarroJanuary 19, 2015Adorable and great food. Super friendly and chill spot. Vegan, vegetarian and meat options. Everything is delicious and made fresh! Staff is very friendly. Great addition to the area!
Everything is fantastic. Brunch daily and now dinner T-F. Live music during brunch. Great atmosphere. Gets crowded on weekends.
The place reminds me of other like places in Park Slope & Cobble Hill et al. The staff are all friendly & helpful. You could sit and eat then pay afterwards.
Incredibly friendly, personable service. Tasty food and strong coffee. Live music is a nice touch. And generally speaking, an overall quirky atmosphere. I'll be coming back.- Pasha LyubovAugust 16, 2015Outstanding in all respects! ...except I hate the coffee. Great people, food, atmosphere, fast, good prices. Especially awesome for late breakfast during weekdays.
- Nicolas CohenMarch 26, 2017Nice, friendly atmosphere, if a bit busy. Wonderful, quiet live jazz music that helps tone it down a little. Good healthy food. Good coffee.
Live jazz during brunch. Cozy. Good coffee. Great breakfast options. Close to my home. Love this place😍
Ágnes FarkasJuly 6, 2018Excellent cooked breakfast, coffee is ok too (they serve machiato 'Italian style')
consistently packed on the weekends for brunch, so try to get there early or make a resy ahead of time- NicholasJune 27, 2016The salmon pastrami breakfast sandwich was amazing. Each ingredient was very high quality. Wow.
FranciscoOctober 24, 2015Good coffee and I love the cozy ambience, but they need to somehow let the air out! You walk out of here smelling like a deep-fried human
Waverly BairNovember 20, 2014Delicious fresh food & pastries! The coffee is also good, it's a great place to get work done :)
I love the frittatas and the salmon toast, such a great neighborhood spot!
Goat cheese scrambled egg sandwich w avo & bacon on chibatta w arugula-balsamic dressing. Boom!
RonniSeptember 21, 2020Cute backyard seating area! Bloody Mary and prosciutto asparagus sandwich was 👌- Service is awesomely friendly. There is a sincere warm feeling when you enter through your departure.
Absolutely delicious brunch, pastries, coffee and juice. They only have 3 burners so don't come in a rush.
Steve BirkettMay 2, 2014Excellent drink selection, especially the custom order teas, and tasty, fresh pastries.
micheleDecember 16, 2023Dec 2023 they are open for happy hour with a limited menu but you get a free drink if you order a pizza.
- Always nice to have a Breakfast Platter, a coffee, and a good orange juice.
Colton StaabNovember 13, 2017The breakfast sandwich is awesome. The maple/mustard combination is a unique one
- The breakfast platter is fabulous but Dang the potatoes are SALTY !!
Stephanie CarlinMarch 11, 2015Food, coffee, vibes are all superior to every other coffee shop around.
Chanel JamesApril 5, 2014This place is a part on the existing neighborhood vibe rather than trying to impose. Which is great.
Manu munizAugust 19, 2015Thats nice place,people and food. But after eat you smell like smoke! And the back area is not usable :-(
- This area of the neighborhood is looking great. Something other than salons, barbers, & wig stores. Like the Tea Lounge in Park Slope but here in Flatbush/Crown Heights.
