Yum! I’ve been wanting to try this place for a long time, and I’m so glad I finally did! My cold veggie sandwich was delicious (and huge!) and my husband loved his jerk chicken lunch special. Service was super friendly and prompt. I’ll definitely be back to try the breakfast sandwiches. 💯 recommend!

This cafe is incredible! The owner was so nice and welcoming. He explained all of the breakfast options and the breads of the day, I got some classic cocobread toast and an iced coffee, and my girlfriend got a coffee and a breakfast sandwich. The food was incredible and worth every penny! We will definitely be going back to try lunch, as well as get some of the baked goods to take home. Very highly recommend!!

First authentic Jamaican restaurant I've ever been to and I'm blown out of the water. Their fresh hand made bread it to die for and turns any sandwich into a delicacy. They pride themselves on having fresh hand made food AND IT SHOWS!!

Crispy chicken sandwich is the best I’ve ever had 😋. Tender and juicy as it should be! Happy that I actually got the Everything Coco Bread this time (first couple times it was the plain kind, even though it states on the menu that it comes with the everything type of bread). Always get mine with plantain chips.

Highly recommend cafe for breakfast. I took my 4 year old for our weekly eat out date. The coffee is very good ( I drink mine black!) Great atmosphere. Exceptionally great service. Loved the conversation with the server and her daughter. The breakfast was tasty and I loved the neatly round egg sandwich. I also ordered pastries - carrot sweet bun and pistachio citrus cake. Will be going back soon. NOTE: BREAKFAST IS COOKED TO ORDER. MAKING IT FRESH. SO ORDER AHEAD OF TIME IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE WAIT.

Tried this cafe for the first time today, the 2 brother's there are super nice. The place is really cute and clean, I had the veggie sandwich which was delicious, and took some coco bread to go!

It’s a “hidden gem” as it is hidden inside an office building. I ordered a Bacon, Egg and Cheese (not pictured) and it was amazing. I ordered a Sausage, Egg and Cheese for my girlfriend with a side of plantains. I had to try a piece of the plantain before she finds out and it was delicious. The two guys working in there are very kind and I recommend this place to everyone.
