    Try the Roasted Eggplant Dip - One of my faves here - but I think they should try serving the dip warm instead of cold.

    New chorizo & white cheddar frittata rocks! Healthier option is spinach, shallot & gruyere. Both are awesome!

    They shut off the WiFi on the weekends and service can be kind of slow, but their coffees are large and delicious.

    Hot chocolate is not a hot chocolate, it is just a cacao. Really dissappointing. BLT Bagel was average as well as coffee. Nothing special about this place.
