Gift Tips
- Use a gift card for weekend brunch and try the bottomless mimosas option — it pairs well with beignets or the huevos rancheros.
- Bring a group and share wood-fired pizzas like the Mad Margherita or Meat Lovers to sample several flavors without committing to one entrée.
- Order coffee and pastries in the morning; the cafe is a neighborhood spot for quality lattes and memorable cappuccinos.
- Reserve a table for outdoor seating when the weather’s nice — the large patio and biergarten often host live music on Fridays and Saturdays.
- Plan a casual dinner at the bar area to enjoy the cocktail menu (the espresso martini is a standout) alongside starters like crispy cauliflower or Bang Bang Shrimp.

Ordered delivery a couple times recently and it always hits the spot! Solid burgers, pizzas and salads. Not pictured the bang bang shrimp--great flavors. read review
The food was okay, but the crab cakes were a little too over-fried. I also wasn't informed that my eggs would come as a sandwich. I only finished my meal... read review
