I saw several customers miss the silverware at the register then have to get up to get it after food is brought to the table.
But, the food and staff were great! 👍🏻

My husband and I really enjoyed this place. My husband ordered the turkey sandwich and was very happy with it. The bacon was delicious. The pork tacos are really good as are the PG potatoes. The latte is good, but I did not care for the oat milk.

Food is amazing! Decor is super pretty. Coffee is to strong for me but my dad loved it lol

The vegan chorizo and proving ground potatoes (sweet potato and regular potato mix) are to die for. Their coffee is top notch as well

Food and cappuccino were delicious. The interior design is very cute but it smells like toilet cleaner when you walk in, it should smell like coffee :). We sat outside on the patio,very nice.

Beautiful establishment! I stopped in for a mid day pick me up and I was blown away by the cleanliness, customer service, and quality of the product I got, which was just an iced latte was phenomenal. Price point was comparable to your Starbucks/bread co. And as for the quality I’d personally say better, the taste was amazing, it was so smooth and flavorful. It will definitely be must stop location when I’m in Columbia, IL. I also look forward to going back and trying their food, it looks amazing as well and if the food is anything like the latte then I’m confident it’ll be amazing as well. What an awesome product and beautiful/extremely clean establishment!! Highly recommended to any avid coffee drinker!

The presentation was beautiful. Amount was very generous. But the food was cold. Even when they forgot my potatoes when they came out they was cold. But all in all I would still give them a 5🌟
