Such a nice addition to downtown Greensboro. The atmosphere is unique and uplifting. The staff was welcoming even with it being a busy Sunday morning. The crepe was one of the best I’ve ever had — it was loaded with flavor. The lavender pancakes had just the right amount of lavender to excite the taste buds. I would highly suggest the lavender lemonade, we went for a second round. Will be going back.

This is our favorite restaurant in the triad area. Never miss out on their soup and baguette if you can help it. Their desserts are amazing. And their daily specials are actually really special. They are always yummy. The ambiance is wonderful. The service is always spot on. My one-year-old and my husband love eating here with me!!

One of my favorite places in Greensboro! The food is amazing. You must get a croissant. The service is outstanding. Worth the wait if there is one. You won’t regret choosing this cute French cafe.

The atmosphere is very inviting and the staff is very kind. I ordered the cinnamon French toast and it was delicious. The omelets are good too.

My husband and I stopped for a quick brunch on the way out of Greensboro. We were very impressed by the atmosphere but blown away by the service. AnnMarie was absolutely fantastic. She was attentive, thorough and so kind. My iced latte was one of the best I’ve ever had and the food was 10/10.
