I had the Cobb salad which had perfect 6 min eggs and the most delicious homemade vinaigrette. It was perfect. My husband enjoyed the chicken Caesar wrap. It is a casual café setting where you order at the counter and they deliver to your table. We sat on the patio. Looks like they have great coffee, breakfast, beer and wine options as well.
I want to like this place so bad! The biggest issue is that the food is never consistent. …
Really good food & kind staff. The BLT & smoked salmon toast were delicious. They also had board games to play!
This inspiring local Minneapolis cafe serves delicious meals, coffee, and desserts. They generously provide breakfast until 3 pm. And their breakfasts are so good, we enjoy them for lunch at times. Individually wrapped scones are ready to go. (My favorite is a Peach Pecan Scone.) The Avocado Toast with Two Poached Eggs is excellent. It comes on a thick slice of broice bread and a side of fresh mixed greens for a salad. The beverage board is updated with staff creations that are fun to try. Like the "Nutty Professor," "Lavender Honey Latte," and "Mabel's Mocha." I especially like mocktails and recommend the "Pomagranate Sunrise" mocktail. It is nice that we can order wine by the glass. They thoughtfully provide alternatives to milk for your coffee and/or tea - oat and soy milk are ideal options. Brownies, cookies, and cinnamon rolls are always available. The walls are decorated with bright artwork from local artists. These framed pictures add a good deal of cheer and welcome. It's super to see many neighborhood residents chatting and enjoying food or beverages together. We typically have little wait in line to order; it is sufficient time to make up our mind while reading the menu board. Once ordered, we found a table and our food arrived quickly. It is nice to see the original wood floor as a pleasant reminder of the building's history. Service is consistently excellent. Friendly staff. It was a short and pleasant walk from our curb-side parking spot.
Stopped on a Monday morning for breakfast. Lovely art, friendly staff. Had #3 scramble with greens Fresh greens, best scrambled eggs I've ever had.
