This is an amazing place-cozy with unapologetically kitschy and colorful touches throughout. The food is the best though. I had the chocolate and berry ricotta crepe and hubby had the quiche Lorraine. The quiche was rich and smokey-baconey with a delicate crust and the crepe was divinely light and sweet, drizzled with chocolate and sitting in a puddle of mixed berry goodness. I kept making unintentional yum noises throughout the first half of my crepe.

I really enjoyed my food and the passion of the cook making it (I got a cool seat from which I could see the cooking happening) only disappointing thing is that they were understaffed so some things took a while to come out and my Dad’s eggs Benedict was cold by the time he got it. Probably won’t go back if this is a consistent feature.

Great place for brunch. Eclectic decor. Excellent tea and drink selection. Highly recommend their afternoon tea service. It’s by reservation only with a selection of scones, sandwiches and desert.

The eggs Benedict with smoked salmon was delicious, potatoes were a bit over flavored imo. Good selection of loose leaf teas as well.

Very cute, quaint place serving brunch only on the Sunday I visited with my daughter. The menu offered a variety of sweet and savory items. I had a Moroccan eggs dish - poached eggs covered with a red pepper tomato sauce, with pita and hummus (excellent and filling). My daughter had crepes stuffed with bananas and honey. The crepes looked whole wheat, which is a nice healthy touch.
The brunch also has the egg and meat standards and daily specials. Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. My favorite thing on the menu so far is the breakfast sandwich. They also have an array of teas and servers are really stylish. All the dishes and silverware are mismatched and its super cute. The vibes here are really nice. Really nice place to go on a date with your significant other!

Great brunch. We're from Chicago and we're pretty serious about brunch, and this place does a better job than most. My friends' only complaint is that there is a lack of hurry to initially take the order and to give the check, but I was totally fine with the relaxed nature. They were VERY attentive to our food allergies, taking time to write them down and accommodate appropriately. They have multiple gluten free options. Food was served super quick after we ordered. All around awesome food joint with great vibe.

Everything is delicious and homemade from scratch and locally sourced. The combinations are brilliant and eclectic and they people are lovely. The restaurant itself is cozy and straight out of a story. It's easily my favorite place for brunch. I can't say enough good things.
