The food here is not good. I have been gluten free for over five years, and I can cook better than they can. When we asked for real cheese in the calzone, they made it with fake, dairy free cheese. It was disgusting. They also don’t know the difference between spinach and pesto. If the menu says spinach, we expect spinach. We wouldn’t have ordered the calzone if the menu said it came with pesto. It also came with a bowl of the most bland sauce I’ve ever had. What were we supposed to do with that? And since when do “chicken sausage crumbles” come in the shape of cubes? The ambiance was nice, the table service was extremely lacking (didn’t check on us once until the meal - if you can call it that- was over), and the owner didn’t even seem happy that we were there. Best takeaway - at least we didn’t get sick from eating gluten, but would never frequent again. Do better. Cooking gluten free is not that difficult.

Wonderful little spot with quality food and tea options. An array of teas, and coffee options as well, with seasonal selections as well. The brunch was on the pricier side, but you get a good portion of really delicious items to make it worth it.

This was my first time patronizing this establishment, and it was great! My friends and I had tea and breakfast to celebrate a birthday and I will definitely go back as the food was tasty, it was gluten and dairy free which helps me make easier choices, and the staff was excellent!
