Disorganized, ran out of food items, unprepared. Maybe they're having a bad day -- Too much biz?Nice people, tho.

Good desserts and pastries, and quiche and sandwiches, the sadly nothing great. The best thing is the coffee, especially the cappuccinos and Cafe lattes. They also take part in a fad that I strongly dislike, that of suggesting a tip for food that has yet to be delivered and that you yourself have to throw out, box up if you're taking any home, and place the silverware in a specific plastic jar of soapy water. I don't like not leaving a tip, but this isn't tip worthy service. Overall however, a very good place to stop for a bite, especially if you're a tourist.

So nice to see some creativity. I had a Bahn Mi sandwich with Vietnamese pickled veggies. My husband had a BLT with duck bacon, nicely toasted. The side dish was tasty cous cous.

Really good coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Nice space to stay and eat if you like. Pork Bahn Mi at lunch is insane. Good prices, really nice space and vibe. Beats the hell out of chain coffee.

If you would like a fresh smoothie to start your day, this is the place for you! My carrot mango ginger smoothie was tasty! They have many other breakfast items to choose from as well. They also serve lunch and cater.

I don't like writing bad reviews. But there are some things that need to be addressed. I'll start with the pros. The atmosphere is nice. It is big and roomy. The seats are comfortable. That is about it. The staff were unpleasant. Not rude but just no emotions. The coffee didn't really taste like anything. And afterwards everyone in my group got sick. I'm not sure if it was good Poison but none of us felt good. I will not be coming here again.

Great place to grab lunch or a coffee and pastry. Fast and friendly service. The building itself is not very nice but it adds to the downtown coffee house feel of the establishment.

Best breakfast, coffee and pastries in Ellsworth, Maine! They use their mother recipe for their muffins! Awesome! I come here every morning when I’m working in Ellsworth. Their cheese danish is the best I have ever had!! Coffee is good. Ladies and gentlemen here are so so nice. Try avocado toast and scrambled eggs! Amazing yummmmm.

Great coffe drink selection, excellent smoothies. Quiche is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Good sandwiches. Great sweets for breakfast, dessert or take home. Cool, hipster vibe. Big, comfy couches and armchairs along with the tables. Newspapers and magazines to read if you haven't brought anything. Also, there is a little artisan gallery next door, with a window looking into the shop from the cafe.

Very good pastries. Coffee is good as well, though I did order a latte, and was served a cappuccino... There is a difference! Staff seems nice overall. I did catch one staff member who was slightly rude to paying customers using the public restroom, she could have been having a bad day, though. I also tried a breakfast sandwich on a bagel. Just a simple bacon, egg, and cheese. Smelled amazing, but was disappointed. I also noticed someone had started to put guacamole on it and just scraped it off, there was still some left in the center. Not good if a customer had an allergy.I do like the the atmosphere of the cafe, that is what has brought me back. They do have board games available, but I do wish they had some books, as well. That would keep customers longer!

Wonderful place! The quiche and pastries are amazing! Good coffee and smoothies as well, my husband was impressed. If you want fresh sandwiches though, go before 4PM since they stop making them at 4.

Great coffee (espresso and regular drip), delicious vegetable egg breakfast sandwich, refreshing greens salad on the side of the Turkey sandwich, and love all the progressive art peppering the walls. Visiting the area from a larger city this felt like a little pocket of home. Prices that make sense. Very open atmosphere, couches for hanging out solo or tables for a meal with companions. Many, many options for a la carte breakfast as well which is great (hard boiled eggs, individual Greek yogurts, fruit, etc). 10/10 would recommend and go back.

This place is so comforting you may not want to ever leave. The food is so good its the kinda place to sit while getting some work done on the free wifi and sampling everything on the menu while doing it! Me and my wife had a business meeting there today and were super pleased with the place. We shared the spinach quiche over coffee before the meeting and it was the highlight of our morning. Perfectly prepared food and coffee as well as an inviting atmosphere makes this our new go to place!

This place was awful. It so desperately wants to be cool with it's hipster crew and pretentious menu items (that don't begin to live up to their names. I love the creativity, but if you can't back it up with flavor, don't even try). There were 6 employees behind the counter, no one waiting ahead of me, and it still took 20 minutes for them to make a hummus wrap. They obviously hire based on looks and hipster attire, because this crew was seriously lacking. None of my food was good (hummus wrap with tabouli side), and it certainly wasn't work $12. Will venture elsewhere next time. (Try Morton Moos Icecream around the corner. It was fantastic, and their staff werebawesome).

My favorite place to go for a bite to eat and sit down and relax. They have spinach pastries that are just delicious and unique to this place. Have had breakfast here as well as their paninis and have never been disappointed. Cubana panini is especially tasty. Bakery goods are always delicious and they make them fresh daily.

Lovely setting and yummy food, just pricey. I ordered a small salad with toasted tempeh, which was $9+ after tax. For the price, I would've liked to see more tempeh ($3 extra for 6 small pieces) and other toppings in the salad other than greens and carrots (like nuts and fruits). My friends loved their coffee though, and I was very jealous of the breakfast special one of them ordered. It was a runny egg with cheese, tomato, and spinach on a pastry-style bun. It was also only about $4! I tried a piece of my other friend's sticky bun and was also very impressed. The desserts are very tempting and delicious.

My partner and I popped in for a quick bite and had some of their delicious Breakfast sandwiches (A bacon/pepper-jack and sausage/swiss) both were delicious and the eggs were perfect. Plus, given the proclivity for price gouging in beautiful downtowns, the price was positively perfect!
