This is a small shop but if you want to try delicious breakfast, this is the right place. The avocado chicken sandwich was excellent with a lot of flavor. Their pancakes are fluffy and tasteful... not sure what they put in it but they have a lil French style recipe. You will find real French breads, croissants at this store!!!

Service was wonderful. Pastries are delicious, and the seats are comfy. It's a small cafe but adorable and tasty. I stopped here after a morning on the beach. had to get 2 spinach pastries bc one wasn't enough they're that good. Also had a strawberry lemonade sparkling drink with fresh strawberries, and a hot chocolate for my ride home. I'll def be back! Love it here

Ordered a broccoli spinach quiche for an office holiday breakfast, it was to die for! Everyone loved it and it was gone on the first round of servings. Love the staff, they are always so nice and the food is authentic and always great. Highly recommend!

This small restaurant is a bakery as well as a cafe. It faces the main street, but parking is behind the building in the parking garage. It's free to park there. Then you either cut through the building or walk around to the back (or front entrance). There are some tables outside and about 6 two-top tables inside. You order at the counter, and they will bring your food to you. In the counter displays you can see their various pastries and quiches. There's also a separate cooler for cold drinks. When we stopped by for lunch, they were fairly full inside -- which meant 4 of the tables were taken. It was a one-man band as the owner/chef was doing everything by himself. He was waiting on everyone and preparing the food, as well. Oh, and btw, he is from Paris. I started with an iced decaf coffee. The coffee was very good -- not bitter like the famous chain everyone goes to. I also ordered a sandwich of turkey with cranberry sauce and brie. It regularly comes also with ham, but I had him leave this off. They were out of baguettes so our choices of bread was a panini or a panini (!) -- so we got a panini. My husband ordered a tuna sandwich with veggies. I think the guy thought he'd ordered tuna with cheese, however. It took a bit to get our sandwiches as the chef was making crepes and other food for the rest of the customers. We were okay with this -- although hungry. Both sandwiches were served hot from the panini press. And both sandwiches were thoroughly enjoyed. We didn't get any dessert, but several items looked appealing. If you are looking for an authentic local cafe experience and are not in a rush, this place is for you.

Open Monday through Sunday baking and putting together some great paninis and sandwiches. Today I had a Tuna on panini and an Ice coffee. They offer fresh juices and crepes as well. There are several inside and outside tables . Everything is made to order Nd this is very good food...just not fast or rushed. My wife and I enjoyed our meals very much. Parking is free on the first floor behind the retail shops and restaurants. Enjoy!

Quaint little storefront and restaurant with outside seating and 1 table inside. This restaurant is mostly a to-go place, but they have a nice selection of sweet and savory fresh prepared foods. They also have specialty coffee and smoothies and even a machine that fresh squeezes orange juice. They are newly opened and are still stocking the shelves, but I think they are unique to the neighborhood and hope they find their niche. The owner did say they were affiliated with the pizza restaurant next door , and they shared the outside tables. It was not busy when I went inside, but the service was friendly and welcoming.
