They make great wraps for vegetarians and great alternative milk coffees. A great find in this area. All their other food looks good for carnivores as well.

A warm welcoming experience from the moment you enter the room, by your second visit alone the coffee order and your name is remembered providing an atmosphere unlike others. Consistent complexity and variety of food choices each day (savory and sweet) with the coffee being divine without fail. It is clear that Joy & Shae share an abundance of effort and care for customer service and quality. A long time customer that truly considers the people as family <3. Much love
