Heather A Adams
This coffee shop/café caught me by surprise. I thought it was going to be a strip down place with four coffee options and two kept energy bars. They actually had a pretty epic ham and cheese croissant that had a big honking slab of real ham in it, so yea, no stripped down. There’s really no theme here because we also orders this delicious sesame rice balls with kimichi, super tasty! The place doubles as a bike store but the atmosphere is all buzzy coffee shop.

Too many disappointments in all the hip eateries on Fig and York that sprouted up in the last few years. Few are any good.

New favorite gluten-free chocolate chip cookie (with sea salt ✌️). Fantastic service, great quality food. If we lived closer, this would be a weekend staple for us. Bought one cookie with breakfast, left with 7 more for later…

Killer vibe! Such a rad little shop. The employees and owner are super friendly. They make all baked goods in house (minus the croissants) and support other local businesses in the products they sell. The coffee and cookies are on point!
