Lovely, cheesy, buttery Paninis: try the glorified grilled cheese. The fruit tart is fantastic too, the pastry has a nice marzipan flavor and the Danish style custard is yummy

Veggie mania panini is amazing. Oh, and the almond apple tart really is better than apple pie.

Best red velvet cake ever! Also, get them for your wedding cake and they'll give you a complementary one on your one year anniversary!

They go all out on Sunday's with a "Sunday Brunch" menu. The B.E.L.T. is incredible--bacon, egg, lettuce, and tomato. Get it on a croissant.

Turkey club panini is second only to Dave's in terms of most delicious sandwich in the area. Coffee's good, and the almond croissant is to die for.

Crowded on weekends. Come early to stake out a spot.

Service is pretty bad but the food is good. There is no communication between the workers when you place an order so there's a lot of confusion when you make it to checkout.

Get the almond croissant or pop tart!

Coffee and food is great but the wifi is terrible. Most sites don't load for me at all.

Don't put a child in front of a pastry window and then try and talk him into a caprese salad.

Nutella latte did not taste like Nutella to me :-/. The cream puff filling was light and not as sweet as expected.

Fruit custard and red velvet cupcake! Yummy!
