Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Hands down the best coffee I’ve ever had! All the sandwiches are delicious, and the molletes are simply amazing. The owner is super friendly and welcoming."
"This small cafe blew me away. I got Andy's craving and it was so delicious. I don't like rosemary (it has rosemary bread) but it was so pillowy soft, I devoured the sandwich. The jam was decadent and provided a good balance. I was kindly provided a little extra salsa on the side and it really brought it to a new level with the heat to play off of the sweet jam. The cheese provided a creamy edge to the prosciutto, jam, and salsa. I also got the cafe de olla, which was sweet and creamy just how I like it. The Choco flan was also delicious! Please come to support this local business!"
"I just had a torta that totally nailed it. It was loaded with juicy, perfectly grilled meat tucked into a soft, slightly crispy bolillo. The refried beans were smooth and savory, and the avocado brought that creamy goodness. And then there’s the secret spicy sauce—oh man, it was next level. Just the right amount of kick to keep things interesting without overpowering the flavors. If you know what a good torta is all about, this one’s gonna blow you away. The secret sauce really takes it up a notch, making each bite an experience you won't forget. This is the kind of food that leaves a mark—in the best way possible. A must-try for sure."
"According to my dad. Great regular coffee. Strong and tasty. I got seasalt caramel foam with no syrup added. Good mix of sweet and slightly bitter. Food choices are healthy and refreshing"
"I have visited this place about 4 times. at first I just wanted a snack since I was waiting for my clothes to wash at the laundry matt. Since the girl that helped me ( Andy?) was so polite and recommended a few things, I decided to come back. 1) the place was nice and clean 2) The cashier was friendly and patient 3) the drink was straight out mouth watering ( horchata latte) 4) omg the sandwich that I order was not only made fast but nicely wrapped for me, but the flavors made me dance in my seat. I am not a person to do many reviews, but I believe they truly do deserved it. I also loved that it is family owned, and it feels like they truly care about the food and the quality of it."
"I ordered the cafe de olla latte and an egg and ham breakfast sandwich. Everything was so good the coffee was to die for! Definitely will be going back!"
"Good food, i got the breakfast sandwich bagel, it was made fresh and tasted really good. I loved the fact that they had a wash bin in the store to wash hands instead of having to go to the restroom. I give the sandwich a solid 8/10. I will definitely be back."
"The coffee was AMAZING. really reminded me of the café de olla my grandma used to make! And the cake super delicious and tasty will be back again. The girl that helped me was so friendly! definitely recommend going!"
