    Really enjoyed The French Pigwich (made with Eggs, Bacon, Ham, Cheese & Mayo on a Toasted Croissant). One of the many tasty sandwiches made to order.

    My favorite chai in the world - so many different options - NOT just coffee (but coffee is great too) try their loose tea and a MoChai latte. Yum!

    Specialty drinks Are superb and the live music is a great mood setter. Hold your breath near the male employee with long hair though! Serious B.O 😀

    Quirky. Their baked goods are worth the stop. The coffee is good, serviceable coffee -- not trendy or pricey. Definitely independent in every way.

    The croissant breakfast sandwich is a terrific way to start your morning. The coffee isn't half bad either.
