    Had the Slow Cooked Pork sandwich and the Open-faced Mushroom Melt... both were incredibly delicious. Would recommend adding avocado on the mushrooms, and Pepper Plant hot sauce on the pork!

    After you've worked up an appetite at Point Lobos, Order take out sandwiches and salads- and even a turmeric latte from Carmel Belle

    A single shot of espresso macchiato is equal to the size of a baby's spit... It doesnt even fill up the espresso cup to half level even with the milk. Unbelievable for $ 2,45. The pate plate was 5*!

    Unlimited solid coffee FTW. Great poached eggs on fresh homemade bread. The juice bar is a great find !!

    Amazing place for breakfast. The poached egg on ciabatta is heavenly. I just do not understand why they have to put cucumber on their water.

    The Charcuterie was a bit stale. Sandwiches (especially the melts) were really good. The Cobb salad was of good portion and tasty.

    The open-faced avocado makes a perfect brunch. Get their signature poached egg on the side if you are not vegan.

    The barista messed up my coffee order, didn’t apologize and gave me attitude when I told her it was wrong. Everyone else was super nice and helpful.

    It's good and sort of dog friendly but the presentation isn't great and the avocado toast was less than expected. Just avo smeared on sub par toast. Nothing spectacular

    Try anything with mushrooms. We had the green eggs and ham...with a side of mushrooms!

    The avocado toast and most of the other food here is great. But, it's expensive for what you get. And it is always slow

    Food was very bland and my egg whites were undercooked despite asking for poached medium, truffle mushrooms were rubbery, the Anson Mills hominy was over cooked and unseasoned.

    Take a pic of the food immediately, because its beauty is outweighed by how delicious it is. ;-)

    Завтраки до 13.00, сытно если добавить овощи/сосиски к яйцам. Горячий сендвич был холодным, но вкусным. По просьбе заменили бекон на сосиски без доплаты. Капучино горький, лате норм. Получилось 41$
