Five stars for the super cute & creative décor, often themed to the current season or holiday. Five fellow travelers and I from Orlando visited twice to sample their breakfast options. I enjoyed the bacon-egg-cheese bagel sandwich, blueberry muffin & flavored coffees, plus veggie options - and the prices are very reasonable. A treat for the eyes & palate. Highly recommend!

A magical spot in town. Coffee and service was amazing and atmosphere is whimsical. Every nook and cranny has something that will draw your curiosity, never a dull moment while you wait for your coffee to be freshly done by local ingredients, in my case the maple syrup. There’s a story this place tells and its one of love and passion. Through the pictures, selection and placement of objects, I felt like I got to really know the owners in a very personal level. It felt like I was at my best friend’s home 🏻

This place is a hidden gem. I did a Google search, found other places but this one had breakfast food.Everything was made fresh and served hot. I loved that. They were generous with the avocado and bacon.I ordered a hot salted caramel mocha, very subtle and delicious. This location can take all my money.Customer service A+++++. I was greeted and felt extremely welcomed. Great atmosphere. A must try!I almost missed it because there’s no sign on the building with the name, there is a poster sign but the font is in cursive and thin - in case you’re looking for it.

Nice little coffee shop right on the corner. Stopped in with 2 friends and all 3 of us were very happy with our breakfast sandwiches and iced coffees. There’s a handful of small tables with chairs inside and I believe a couple spots outside as well. The staff were attentive and courteous. Will definitely stop in again the next time I’m going through the area.Vegetarian options: They’re willing to make any of their sandwiches or bagels without meat, just ask them.Dietary restrictions: One of our group has Celiacs disease and they were extremely accommodating about it. They even had Gluten Free Rye which you don’t often see.Parking: There’s very limited street spots directly at the cafe, but the next block over has a huge free 2 hour parking lot.

I would highly recommend this business!!! I can’t even begin to explain the amount of good things to say about this place. With so many options on the board the staff helped me figure out what would be a good fit for my desired taste. On top of being helpful with my order they also were very friendly and kind and took the time to ask how i was doing not only as a customer but also in a personal way. Food and coffee were also exceptional. If you have the chance to visit i would highly recommend doing so!! Thank you again to the business owner for representing local businesses very well!!

This place has such creative-funkiness, playful decor, welcoming and cozy. I wanted to hang out even after my coffee was finished. A diverse offering of bagels; the best apple pie you've ever had, and a super friendly and helpful barista. My entire bill came to just $7 for a toasted bagel, cream cheese, and an espresso!Come here and leave with a smile.

Could I give more than 5 stars? Came here everyday on my weekend trip. Came back again twice in one day with friends too! The coffee was out of this world incredible … and the owner was SO sweet, a truly special soul. The drinks themselves are unique and so many fun flavors and coffee varieties to choose from. She really knows what she’s doing. This rivals any NYC coffee shop I love, the cold brew was still coffee but had wonderful flavor. They also serve beautiful pastries and food and the shop itself is so cute. I’ll be thinking about this place until I get to visit again!

I was in town visiting family and so glad I stopped into this coffee shop. Not only did I have a great cup of coffee and delicious parfait, but was instantly welcomed by the owner working the counter. Even though she had alot of people waiting in line ( Which is a positive thing!) it means EVERYONE knows how great this place is. She was so happy and so pleasant. She and Bud makes everyone feel like they have known you forever. It instantly makes you feel at home. I am from Syracuse and wish I could have this place closer. If you are ever in Watkins Glen this is a must way to start your day!

My husband and I enjoyed this coffee shop. We have traveled across the U.S. and rate this as one of our favorites. If your in the area stop by. We had the BLT with avocado. It was huge and delightful. We also tried the apple donut ( our version of an apple fritter) it was awesome. My husband had white chocolate macchiato with raspberry. I had the bourbon cold brew. The service was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Exactly my perfect coffee shop.

Absolutely wonderful coffee shop! The iced lattes the barista made for us were excellent - well-roasted and brewed espresso, and a perfect balance of coffee to milk to ice. The two women working was so nice and patient with us as we wrangled a toddler while placing our order. They even made our daughter her own “latte”! We will definitely be back!

The atmosphere was great however the experience was not. I ordered a special breakfast sandwich that supposedly came with cream cheese, tomato, lettuce, egg, etc. I received (after a long wait) a bagel with a TINY piece egg and cheese. I went back up and told the lady that it was not what I ordered (it was missing everything that it came with) and she gave me some attitude. Luckily, they fixed it and brought out the correct sandwich which was just okay but it rubbed me the wrong way. My boyfriend’s order was also wrong! He ordered the same thing and got a bacon, egg, and cheese instead. He didn’t feel like waiting so he just ate it. Additionally, we ordered some avocado toast and it came all smashed up in a tin foil wrapper even though we were dining in and other customers got plates. It tasted great but the careless preparation is not cool. I also saw at least two other customers who were upset with their visit in the same time frame. The coffee was okay. Definitely recommend going down the block to the glen mountain deli; we had a good experience there. It’s a shame because we were really excited to try this place while on our trip.

We really enjoyed the pie and tea tasting flight.They were accommodating of us as my my likes coffee and do not do they gave us a mix of four drinks in the flight two teas and two coffees. I especially liked the pumpkin tea. I would go back daily for that if I lived near by.Of the three pies we tried (sweet potato, pumpkin and pecan) I enjoyed the pecan pie the most.
