I've been here a few times, I'm just never been a big fan of their coffee. But the service was great and the atmosphere was good.

Friendly staff and delicious coffee. Small but quality menu. Overall, I would go back, but it's not my favorite place ever. The space is nice but feels a little sterile/generic. It was cold outside when we were there and unpleasantly cold inside, as well, despite my having dressed for cold weather. There were often many unbussed tables, even though there were no people in line (i.e. no obvious reason to not tidy up).

Waited 25 minutes for 2 sandwiches around 11:30 am which were grilled. One was supposed to be a panini but was told no panini machine at this location. So why is it on menu as panini? Coffee too bitter for my taste. Dog friendly outside patio is a win! As others have said, they must have a powerful AC because it’s fairly cold inside.

Great options! We had been eating badly on the road. It was refreshing to have excellent salads with real dishes and utensils! Hearty sandwiches as well.

Good food, but staff grossly overwhelmed on Sunday mornings. Not staff's fault, but the long wait for a simple breakfast frankly ruined my morning plans. There are many other options.

My favorite! The food is wholesome and well prepared and the coffee is delicious! We had pancakes, English Muffin and sausage patties, chia latte, breakfast number 4, and an Americano. Total was about $36. It was so good my plate was empty and we inhaled our food before we took a picture. I had the over easy eggs, sausage, toast and breakfast potatoes. The strawberry jam is so delicious!

Very cool little spot in Brookings. Went there with some colleagues for coffee and brunch. Coffee was as expected and I had the hot PB&J. The homemade jam was great and it was a solid choice that I enjoyed.

Italian soda was good- didn't have ice tho. I stopped here for a drink and a quiet, air conditioned space to work on my laptop.( It was 80 outside). It was very cold inside & table was sticky. It was so cold the employees were wearing sweatshirts. I didn't come with any winter clothing so I only stayed for 5 minutes

Incredible establishment. Great menu. Great service. Young man named Trevor made our visit an absolute pleasure. What a gentleman. A must stop anytime I pass through Brookings, SD.

My veggie sandwich was very soggy and lacking in flavor. I was hungry so I ate around the bread. The iced tea was mediocre. We have had lunch here many times in the past and liked it.
