I’ll definitely be back, very clean and I had the best waiter! I got the Butterfly Pea Tea and Getting' Figgy With It Toast which I highly recommend as they pair very well together. It was so delicious!

Came here with a coworker for a light dinner. We had the prosciutto and caprese toasts and drinks. The toasts were amazing! Incredibly well balanced and flavorful. My glass of house wine (of which they have a fine selection) was tasty and my colleague enjoyed his cocktail very much. All in all an excellent place to stop for a relaxing evening.

If you are a tea lover, this IS your ONLY choice for a good loose-leaf tea in New Bern. Do enjoy during daytime/brunch-time, and you will likely be as delighted as I was during my first-time visit. ? ?Early is better.Saturday-7pm. was a completely different place than Sunday-3pm. Both times were equally full, all tables busy. In the daytime, servers were on top of it, and the wait times were ok. Saturday night, on the other hand, was chaotic. Only three employees (+1 at toast station) were playing all the bases: bartending, taking orders at bar and tables, serving toasts and drinks, cleaning up a broken cup out front, and cashiering. They need at least three more employees on that shift. Customers got anxious waiting to get service. Once the first lady got up and placed her table's orders for toast and drinks at the bar, other clients followed her like a mob. The place suddenly lost its charm. The server that had brought out my butterfly pea tea didn't bring out the timer and looked very tiered. No longer could she come by, so I walked up to the bar too and requested a resteep and a to-go cup.This cafe has fallen prey to its own success. Being the newest bar/eatery in a tiny town where nothing happens, it has gained a lot of customers and quickly surpassed its own capacity to maintain quality service.Parking: Gravel parking lot right behind the building. Street options are available too.Kid-friendliness: I saw several kids on Sunday. A variety of drinks are available for them: juices, mocktails, sodas, spritzers.

My husband and I have been here several times and everything we've tried has been delicious, drinks and toast. I definitely recommend the tzatziki chicken toast which is my favorite so far but there are a lot of great options, you can't go wrong. I also love that they have plenty of espresso and tea options. Most recently I tried the butterfly pea tea which was incredibly tasty and had a fun little surprise color change. They have more than a few drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) that have a fun twist. Ask one of the bartenders for a recommendation. I promise, you will not be disappointed!!

Nice, quaint spot. The staffing was very friendly and efficient. The drinks were great, and so was the ambiance. Limited seating.

Saw a friend here and it was the perfect spot to catch up! We had like 4 different toasts, and 4 different teas! Literally such a great place! Its a cool location too. Seeing a train so close to storefront and my car was pretty rad. I'm definitely coming back to try all the teas, they have coffee too!

Expertly renovated and enticing ambiance. A coffee bar and a liquor bar! Toast a hundred different ways, you'll find something that you like here. Truly innovative. One star off for a bright and noisy room.

A very cozy, pleasant cafe. Menu limited to a large variety of toasts but they are quite tasty. Cocktails are delicious and well made. Staff are pleasant and attentive.
