This place was wonderful we rented an Airbnb within walking distance and came here for some morning coffee and we all ended up having either muffins scones banana bread . The coffees and breakfast snacks we got were all amazing. This place was very very busy we waited maybe 8 minutes in line and another 5 for our food but it was worth it and a table cleared by the time we needed to sit down. Wonderful little place

Some of the best coffee is Kalamazoo by far. I also love the vegan zucchini bread as well. Everything is priced reasonably as well. It takes a bit for my coffee to come out because there only 1-2 baristas working whenever I have gone (I order an iced peppermint mocha). The line is totally worth it!

Great and strong coffee. The baristas are always friendly. The bakery items are always a hit.

This is my favorite place to go when I visit Kalamazoo. This place has the friendliest staff and the idea and concept of a café AND restaurant? Amazing 👏 I always get the same thing from the cafe but the drink taste the best every time and when you order, the staff are very patient with you. They have so many various options for pastries. The restaurant always has good options that can go with multiple dietary options and/or restrictions. The size of the places are a bit small but have a cozy atmosphere.

Ive been here a hand full of times and the food is worth the wait - there is always a wait to be seated, but its a great place to eat. Highly recommend.

A preferred place for coffee, baked goods, and the best London Fog (tea) in Kalamazoo. They have house syrups in addition to the usual availability (lavender is my favorite). They have vegan options (the scones and zucchini bread are great). Delicious breads. We usually wait in here or go record shopping at Satellite Records while waiting for a table for Crows Nest, which is upstairs.

Wonderful place, and omg the food! It was all amazing and the staff was spectacular! There is a staircase to get to the restaurant, but can happily accommodate people in the bakery downstairs!

This cafe is really convenient if you’re waiting to get into the Crow’s Nest, but it’s also very nice on its own. The cafe miel I had was quite nice and the honey was mixed in very well. The staff was friendly despite the crowds, and I still was served fairly quickly. It’s worth stopping by even if you’re not going upstairs.

Stopped in for coffee and was pleasantly surprised to find not only a great shop, but also a space that supports local art. The barista, Skai, is both a talented artist and a true professional. She shared how much she enjoys working here and even pointed me toward other creative spaces for artists to learn and grow. Her salted caramel latte was fantastic! The shop itself has recently been remodeled while I can’t compare it to before, I can say the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The bathrooms are clean, the vibe is positive, and the overall experience was wonderful. Love seeing a place that blends coffee, community, and creativity. I’ll definitely be back. ☕️🎨🖼️

They have cafe au lait here. Not the same as NOLA though. I think the milk was not hot enough. Cookie and other baked goods look very good. I didn't know they bake everything in house. Except the cookies I think. First time I try Vegan Zucchini Bread. Wow. It is moist and pretty much like a cinnamon pound cake. I assume it is healthier than regular bread too. Very nice and cozy. Staff is friendly and they have free wifi. Nice place to take a break and enjoy some coffee.
