Super cute cafe and deli and gift shop in one. We were here in December, so didn't experience their outdoor area which looks like they may have live music on a small outdoor stage. Highly recommend.
Great chocolate chip and macadamia nut cookies! So fresh. Service was great friendly staff and helpful.
The breakfast was good. My wife and I got omelets and they were good, but definitely splurge for the hash brown casserole as the side. The grits were not that good in my opinion. The kids had pancakes which tasted okay but were very dense. They weren't nice and fluffy and were tough to cut. We ended up just tearing them apart to eat. Overall it was a good breakfast, but for $60 for a family of 4, I definitely think there's room for improvement.
Dog friendly with water bowl. Food is good and great sandwiches! We had breakfast and enjoyed. Food is freshly made. Excellent gift store!
The service is fine and the food is ok. The ambiance is great. There's a small shop that has beautiful pictures and several little eclectic pieces. Overall a nice place to go.
