Cost: $$$$$ under $10 for most meals

What I got:

Greek Quiche with a side salad. Absolutely delicious and a HUGE serving. Flakey crust that melts in the mouth. The mixture of feta cheese, spinach, onions and greek olives was amazing. Great as either breakfast or lunch. I highly recommend trying their Quiche! They are made daily and they come up with exciting and different types.

Marshmallow Latte

As a cafe I would definitely expect coffee, lattes,espresso etc. Looking through their extensive drink menu this one stuck out. The girl taking my order politely asked if I wanted whipped cream…of course! One sip and I was reliving childhood memories of sipping hot coco on a cold winter day. Can’t wait to try their other drinks. I’ve heard their tea selection is just as wonderful.

Caramalized Pear Bubble Tea

I’ve had bubble tea before so I was excited when I saw this on their menu. Unfortunately I wasn’t impressed. It was pretty bland and while I was expecting the candied pears that traditionally would have been put in the drink, they only used syrups.

All in all I give this place 5 stars! Beautiful place, smiling staff, good food. Their menu has tons of great items, I definitely want to try the gorgonzola chips! Yumyumyum! Check out their Facebook page because they constantly update it with new dishes and drinks! I hope to visit this place soon again!
