Bagels are so good and they always put a good amount of cream cheese. Coffee is fairly decent. The Vietnamese iced coffee is pretty good. Place is small with only a couple of small tables. It's really more of a to go place.

Really irritated I couldn’t get a cup of coffee on my lunch break… only had light roast that was room temp. Asked it to be microwaved but it was nuked. Coffee machine turned off. So weird that it’s called a coffee shop and that was there coffee.

So many different drinks and great breakfast/lunch. The staff is fast and friendly and it’s just a cool local coffee shop. My boyfriend and I come here when we have to do laundry down the street and it just hits the spot every time.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps at all and wide space for wheelchairs. Doorway to bathroom is a little tight but passable. Bathroom has lots of space.

The Bagel sandwiches... Delicious!! A hidden gem in Santa Rosa!

Incredibly overpriced for disgusting bland food. It’s $17-19 for a bagel and coffee. I’ve been here multiple times as a last resort when I was hungry for breakfast but didn’t want to go to the fast food places. The bagel sandwiches have always been subpar, incredibly bland, watery, and they add no seasoning to the eggs.Today was the last straw when I ordered the corporate burrito. I received a tortilla with unseasoned mushy potatoes, a slab of raw red onions, raw spinach, watery tomato, unseasoned eggs, and sausage. I literally couldn’t get through the first few bites because it was so disgusting. This cost me around $13. I immediately threw it in the trash and went across the street to Taco Bell and got a breakfast crunch wrap for $3.95. It tasted like a delicacy compared to the garbage I had just tasted.I know we’re dealing with inflation right now but their prices are just outlandishly absurd for how low quality the food is. It blows my mind how so many people go there everyday because the food is so trash but maybe they’re just desperate for bagels since theres nothing else nearby.Do yourself a favor and save your time, tastebuds, and money by just going to Taco Bell or McDonald’s or Starbucks nearby instead of giving this wretched scam of an establishment your money.

Excellent food, great customer service, local eats, highly reccomend. Nothing fancy, but definitely worth stopping in for a quick breakfast. Ham and cheese crossant is my personal fav.

every experience i’ve ever had has been absolutely horrible. the staff are rude, the drinks are horrible and everything incredibly overpriced. ever since the ownership changed about a decade ago it’s really gone downhill.

NO DRIP COFFEE ..... whaaaat. How does a coffee shop NOT have real coffee??? Was going to support a local store over Starbucks .... but not if they don't have REAL coffee. Smh

I bought a coffee while taking my son on a walk. Got to the light and realized coffee was spilling on my hand. The lids don't fit the cups

Great food and coffee. The workers exhibit excellent customer service. The place could use a more regular cleaning and sensible organizing.

Vegetarian review - a very busy place with good food but could use a person more present in the moment at the front taking orders. The rest of the staff was fine. I took away stars only because of the customer service experience, the food was good. Specially when you're beginning your day, overall experience matters. The person taking the order, didn't take the time to explain what she meant by "do you want room". She was basically talking about whether to leave room for milk or not which I did not know and asked if they could add oat milk, which later I found out they didn't have by the way. Our only response was "so you want room!" They didn't take a name for the order which I felt was unusual, because you could have people ordering the same thing. And sure enough many people didn't know who's order was ready when it was called and kept asking if this was theirs. The food was good, hot and I will probably go back there again to give it another shot.

Great coffee, great service, I have fallen in love with the berry crisp thing on the counter. It's so delicious!

I tried the breakfast burrito with sausage and salsa inside. It was delicious! Great balance of flavors. Nothing punches you in the face, just good, hearty tastiness. The tortilla was nicely grilled/browned/toasted...I'm not sure because I was enjoying my tasty Americano. I can't speak to the rest of the menu, but what I had was terrific.
