“I drop in here every once in a while! Always get a latte and try out different flavors which have all been so good. Switched it up and got an Arnold Palmer which is one of my go-tos when it’s warm out. That croissant sandwich is always super tasty! For sure need to try more food options.”
“They offer great sandwiches and lunch menus. Try their ice cream as it's very tasty. I'd definitely return..”
“Goddess & Grocer never fails! Everything you can want from a cafe and more. They sre known for their delicious quick bites and coffee/teas but they provide more than that. I stopped by to gather some small local favorites to fill a gift bag for a friend. Decent options for lil gizmos and thangs! The service is ALWAYS nice and kind!”
“Great spot for a good breakfast. Very spacious and clean patio. The coffees are great. I loved the breakfast burrito. My wife enjoyed the Maple sandwich and my daughter was very pleased by her breakfast quesadilla.”
“Loved the spacious upstairs area — perfect spot to sit, relax, work a bit, or catch up with friends. There’s plenty of seating, and the atmosphere feels open and inviting. Really liked the “make your own salad” setup, plus there’s a great selection of sandwiches to choose from. I went for the beef brisket elote sandwich (pictured) — super tasty and full of flavor. It was definitely on the messy side, but in the best way possible — totally worth it. You can grab a coffee and chill on their terrace upstairs too, which is a nice touch. They also have pre-cooked meals available if you’re in a rush — you can either take them home or have them heat it up to enjoy there. The food quality, vibe, and service make it worth visiting. Great all-around spot whether you’re dining in or just picking something up.”
“Very cute place to get work done! Very clean and the staff were all very nice. My coffee was delicious. I would probably pass on the avocado toast next time because the bread was very thick and cut up my mouth lol. Good experience overall though!”
“We just happened to have popped by while shopping and it was so cute! We got a candle and a cookie and have enjoyed both!”
“Delicious spot with solid menu options for breakfast and lunch. The southwest Caesar salad wrap was delicious! The ordering system was a bit unclear with two different registers but only one open - we waited in line and then they opened the second register to help the people behind us first. It made the wait longer and wasn’t clear if we should’ve moved to the second register since there’s really nowhere to stand and wait here.”
