The aesthetic is super cute, and so classy and relaxing. I could have sat there all morning. I ordered a drip coffee (plane Jane, I know, I know) and a quiche. Both were very simplistic and super delicious. I will be back for sure!"

I chose some chia seed pudding which I had never tried before and it was quite good! I would definitely have it again.
