This place was so good!! ?We're vegans that eat ethically sourced eggs, so this place was a great find. We ordered the tofu bowl, I don't think it's even on the menu but if you ask it's likely available ? it had marinated tofu, rice, veggies and it was delicious and filling.The staff is super friendly. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town!

I wish I could give 6 stars.Atmosphere? Eclectic, artsy, amazing. Such a fun and incredible vibe.Service? Amazing. Our server Ali was incredibly sweet, attentive, and helpful. I asked for an off menu coffee and she was kind enough to talk to the batista and they made it, which tasted divinely incredible by the way. I'm very thankful for the staff here, everyone was so pleasant and positive.Food? So good. I got the hummus and avocado toast and it tasted so good.Overall, I highly recommend this place for breakfast/brunch.

This is my favorite place to go in williamsburg. The staff is amazing and the food is spectacular. The cheese curds will make your tastebuds sing. And the decor is stunning.
Service was friendly! But, the food was not flavorful, overpriced and the floors were very dirty. Also we were given plates that were dirty, not cleaned. I’m pretty sure my chicken and waffles were topped with canned chicken and veggies.. way overpriced for not good tasting food. I’m sorry but this place is not it ?

Our first restaurant choice had a huge wait so we decided to try culture cafe. I knew it wouldn’t be great because there was no wait and I was right. I went with my husband and two children. The burger was really dry and just nothing special. The real disappointment was the below average service and a dry nothing special burger for $16. Unfortunately I can’t recommend this restaurant as I’m sure there are other better choices close by.

Great food and service, unique and fun decor and atmosphere. Very nice baguette and butter and salted brioche with house jam and almond butter. Fried cheese curds with chive dipping sauce are fantastic, a must-try! Fantastic Poutine and Bollywood plates - flavorful and filling. Fun coffees and drinks too - enjoyed a tasty latte and White Russian. Lots of pastries available as well - Mom Tart is delicious!Parking: Limited street parking right out front, apparently parking around the corner in the back.

Extremely disappointed. Like their own website says this place has atmosphere but not much else. The food that I had was horrendous. Went on a rainy Sunday for brunch. Ordered the brie appetizer which was just basically a butter layer of overly melted brie on piece of stale toasted baguette. I've seen this dish before. I've made this before. Keep the two ingredients separate! Melt a triangle of brie and give me some crostini and let me build it. I didn't expect cheese on toast for $14. My entree was a ham and egg and cheese fritatta topped with tater tots. It was served in a cast iron pan and the second I looked at it I knew the eggs were overcooked. The cheese was melted in one spot in the center instead of throughout the entire dish and two deli slices of ham layed right under the first layer. The tater tots were bland and sparse and a complete and total after thought. Cook it less, spread the cheese, use diced ham chunks and season the tater tots. Instantly fixed. My wife wasn't happy with her dish but I didn't taste it so I can't say anything about it. I can tell you that if you're going to serve a focaccia pizza topped with a fried egg and a side salad together you should pic better plates. A diamond shaped cutting board for this dish is ridiculous. It makes eating it more of a balancing act. The service was adequate. It seemed like the kitchen might of been in the weeds but the place wasn't that full. I cant imagine what it's like in season and packed. Overall the place has incredible amounts of potential and beleive it or not I'll go again because that's how comfortable the vibe in the place is. They need to step up their food game. Part of me would love to go back and see this place during their opening month when they were putting their best foot forward.

Let's start with the positives... the staff was so kind and very attentive and we were seated immediately. There was water on the table - basically serve ourselves - no ice and it was room temp and we weren't offered any ice. I had no idea that we had arrived an hour before the restaurant was going to close earlier for a special event. Unfortunately because of this, it left us completely underwhelmed. Ordered the tomato soup... it was lukewarm. The meatballs were lukewarm. I was super excited about the beef tips and rice - it came on a hot, iron skillet - a tasty dish. Food was tasty, but it was served lukewarm and I even felt a bit queasy after the meal. The food just did not sit well with my husband and had ended up feeling very queasy after our meal. I had high hopes for this place especially because the reviews were so great. There are a lot of eats in the area and it's not often we dine out, so we will most likely not be coming back. Even though this place wasn't for us, I am not going to say it might not be for others. Sadly, I broke my own rule by going there too late (just before they closed)... that was probably part of the problem.
Cute cafe, coffee was delicious! Enjoyed the amount and flavor of our lattes. The food was good but a little weird / different for our taste. There was only2 breakfast items on the menu. This isore for lunch and or coffee.I did not like being sat in the old couches, although part of the vibe, I get the creeps sitting in old furniture not knowing if there is dust, critters, how often they are cleaned, etc. in eating establishments. I've watched too many restaurant makeover shows maybe ?But I moved to a seat and was just fine. Recommend this place for great coffee and a quick bite, not many choices in the area but it was good.Parking: Only 2 spots in front. Not sure if there is overflow parking somewhere as I did not see signs.

This was such a lovely place to have a relaxed cup of coffee and some breakfast. The staff are so friendly and the offerings are tasty. It is a place that when you walk in you feel like you are walking into an old friend’s house. I will visit again.

This place hits the spot with local friends and tourists. I am born. I ordered the unique English breakfast with eggs, beans, tomato, bacon, home made raspberry preserves on homemade Irish bread that was very filling yet not too heavy. Perfect for a day of walking and exploring Colonial Williamsburg. The GM is wonderful for service and the ambiance is an eclectic delight.

Stopped in for breakfast this morning. Beautiful spread of homemade pastries, and a limited but delicious breakfast menu (waffles, yogurt and fruit, bacon, bagel sandwiches). Excellent coffee, hospitality, and super cozy atmosphere.
Super friendly staff, amazing
