Description

This neighborhood institution carries a lived-in charm that draws a steady crowd. While the front feels snug, the layout opens up toward the back, where large windows stream light over the tables. Alongside rich cappuccinos and iced dirty chais, the kitchen serves a popular prix fixe brunch featuring plates like flaky croissants with eggs and their signature love salad. Its popularity does come with a catch: prepare for long wait times, particularly when the weekend rush hits.
