Decent coffee shop with lots of hearty breakfast options and pastries. We got the toast man sandwich and a cinnamon muffin, both were decent. I know inflation is a thing now, but there’s a part of me that still struggles to purchase a “just-okay” $12 breakfast sandwich.
Lattes were decent as well with some pour over coffee options. Perhaps we were there on a day they happened to be short, but we had to wait a bit to put our order in on a Sunday morning with just one other couple ahead of us. So maybe don’t go if you’re in a rush. Having said that the baristas are kind and will make an effort to give you a positive experience.
There is some seating, but the ambiance is less for hanging out all day and more for grabbing your coffee and breakfast before heading out for the day.
I have been here twice and so far great experiences. The cashier/barista greets me in a kind manner and my order is prepared in a proper fashion. Their Chai Latte is DELICIOUS. I enjoyed their pumpkin whoopie pie and one slice of red ♥️ velvet 🍰 .
It was open at 8:30a while I waited for my dog to be groomed nearby. Chai coffee was great. My breakfast was good though most of it tasted like it used to be frozen. Eggs, potatoes, sausage with cheese. Still filled me up. The people were nice. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. Nice neighborhood breakfast resturant.
Tried HG roastery for the first time this morning. I got a Carmel macchiato and biscuits and gravy. My coffee was really good and the biscuits and gravy were pretty good. My husband got the steak breakfast burrito, that was really yummy! We also ordered traditional breakfast for my son, he seemed to enjoy it. My husband also had a white mocha, it was one of the best ones I've tried! We had a deal for a free pastry and opted for the cinnamon roll, it was so gooey and delicious!! I saw they make giant chocolate chip cookies, was very tempting! I liked the atmosphere, it was inviting and cozy. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Would love if they opened in one in North Mesa!
Cute coffee shop with a great menu of pastries and food. Cappuccino is delicious - not too bitter, not too sweet. The cinnamon roll was delicious! A little too much cream cheese for my taste, but hey, I'd rather have too much than too little. Quick and friendly service. Perfect, cozy areas to enjoy a good book.
FOOD NEEDS IMPROVEMENT on Thursday AM Oct 5th: the avocado on the avocado toast was looking old - it was not the typical vibrant green you expect to see on avocado toast, but it was becoming a more yellow brown. And the toast of the avocado toast was rather small - overall presentation on the avocado toast can be vastly improved - the Avo Toast honestly deserved 1 or 2 Stars. The chocolate chip scone was a more dry than I'm used to in a scone, but tasted good. The Verde Tacos were good, lots of flavor. The October seasonal coffees were delicious - a little more sweetness overload for my personal preference, but I still enjoyed the Donut Latte. The Lavender Vanilla Latte is AWESOME, one of my favorites ever. 😍
They were so very kind, delicious hot chocolate made to perfection. I had a chocolate chip muffin that was just delicious!!! Recommend it!!! Super cute place!
Edit: ps- I’m back for their delicious sandwiches! Made to order they have a few options! The one pictured below comes with bacon too if I am not mistaken, which I asked to skip. Seating outside was a delight with this weather. The sandwiches are fresh and big enough to share!! Yum!!!!
I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to visit this coffee shop! It is tucked in the parking lot across from one of my favorite Sprouts, a little cozy hidden gem. The shop vibe is industrial meets rustic with a high wooden bar, exposed piping, reclaimed wood, etc.
They have a nice little menu with breakfast, bakery, coffee, and tea items, with lunch items starting at 11:00 (according to their website).
I tried the Sunrise avocado flatbread, which had smashed avocado, arugula, tomatoes, and medium cooked eggs on a flatbread. It was delicious! The flatbread had a wonderful texture, like a crispy tortilla (but a little thicker) with a chewy center. The prices for everything were very fair.
I had only 2 misgivings with our visit. First, I ordered a blueberry muffin, and they heated it up for me, which was nice. However, it had a strong “freezer burn” taste. I don’t know if they are bake and then frozen or freshly baked, but either the muffin itself or the batter was rather stale (in taste, not in texture). It’s possible that having it heated up accentuated that flavor, but either way - we did not finish the muffin. After a few bites, I couldn’t stomach the strong freezer taste. My other small and admittedly very personal complaint was the sugar free syrup. I worked as a barista for a few years, so this is only a guess - but I believe they use a different brand for their sugar free vanilla syrup. They have a wall full of Monin syrups, which are some of the best! But the sugar free vanilla in my latte tasted a lot like Torani, which is much worse in my opinion. I could be completely wrong about this, and again, it’s just a personal preference on taste, but I wasn’t a huge fan of the SF vanilla syrup. I would probably just go with a plain latte next time.
Overall, we were very happy with our visit! I will definitely be back to try more breakfast items, although I will be avoiding the baked goods from now on.
We found this little off the beaten path Cafe in Mesa yesterday and it was absolutely DELICIOUS! I ordered the Zesty Crossaint and it was cooked to order and prepared to perfection! We will definitely be going back!
Stopped in here in between shopping. Had a large white mocha and the zesty breakfast sandwich. So glad I gave this location and try and didn't go to the bagel shop nearby. I really enjoyed the sandwich which was very refreshing. The veggies were all fresh. The egg (easy over) will run with yolk after you bit in to it. Best part was mopping it up with the nicely toasted croissant. The mocha was also good but I felt it paled next to the sandwich. Can't wait to bring the family here.
The gluten free carrot cake melts in your mouth. Not too sweet and very moist! The pumpkin chocolate chip muffin, also gluten free, was soft, fresh and tasty. The coffee was marvelous, smooth and roasted in house! Highly recommend, make sure to get there early as the close at 2pm!
This place is so cute and the service was excellent! The cinnamon coffee cake is quite delicious and I highly recommend it. I look forward to returning when I have more time to try some of their other items.
My girlfriend has one of the most pickiest food preferences and taste palettes. On a whim, we did a quick search for coffee and wanted someplace away from crowds. When we saw some options for breakfast, I figured we would get something that my girlfriend would call “okay”. But boy were we wrong. The food and drinks were amazing. I chose to eat my breakfast as a quesadilla and it was light, flaky, and crispy. Absolutely delicious.
This place is an absolute hidden gem and as much as I want this place to be extremely successful - I kind of selfishly enjoy the fact that I can enjoy a fairly calm atmosphere without the bustle of people.
The first thing you notice is that the coffee is great here; it smells great and tastes great. Its small seating area inside gives the impression of a cozy coffee shop but it is more than just a coffee shop. There is a surprisingly good selection of breakfast and lunch items on the menu. Outside seating area is much larger than inside. It opens early at 6am when you most need a strong cup of coffee.
Everything was so flavorful and made with quality ingredients! We had coffee, cider, blueberry muffin, a steak bowl, the peanut butter acai bowl and the French man breakfast sandwich. We could recommend all of it. We'll definitely be coming back again!
Found this place tucked away across the street from First Watch. The coffee was excellent and the food was just as good if not BETTER than First Watch. Plus we did not need to wait to be seated. I had the Loco Moco Acai Bowl and my fiance went with the more traditional pancakes, eggs, and bacon. We picked up a cinnamon roll to go. We went right back the very next day for some avocado toast, tea, and a smoothie. Definitely will make this a regular place if we can. Looking forward to trying lunch!
I need to honest. I was not expecting all the much going here. The ratings are good, but it visually doesn’t look like it would be that great of coffee based on the exterior and some of the branding I saw.
Looks are deceptive.
This is a hidden gem! Very good coffee, great tea, and great breakfast sandwiches! I would fully recommend giving it a try! I will be back!
This place is great! I got an iced vanilla coconut latte and apple spice muffin today! I highly recommend both— the muffin has fresh apple chunks inside and tastes like heaven if you ask them to warm it up for you. Lots of options for drink choices and more gluten-free treats in the bakery case than most bakeries. I will definitely be back and bring my mom next time as she is allergic to gluten and we have a heck of a time finding cute spots to order coffee and baked goods that she can enjoy.
