THE LEAD VERDICT
“the avocado toast was loaded with fresh ripe avocado, hemp seeds, and microgreens on thick cut multigrain bread. like felt actually nourishing without being heavy - exactly what i want for a healthy breakfast would go back”
“fresh orange juice was clearly from concentrate and way too sweet. for real for a place that cares about quality everywhere else this felt like a corner they definately cut nuff said”
ALSO FILED
“their cortado is dialed in - smooth microfoam bright espresso wiht good crema served in an actual glass cup. barista even did a simple rosetta”
“like the coffee bar is cramped so theres nowhere comfortable to actually sit adn work - its grab and go not real cafe culture”
“look teh pancakes had this amazing fluffy but also substantial texture - not dense like diner pancakes but not super airy like boxed mix either. golden brown outside, tender inside, soaked up maple syrup perfectly no joke”
“hash browns came lukewarm with that awful soft mushy texture that screams heat lamp. theyre supposed to be crispy outside fluffy inside not this sad limp version”
“portions here are actually generous without being ridiculous - tehir breakfast burrito easily feeds two people for under twelve bucks. solid value in north berkeley”
“legit they charge extra for avocado adn its not even good - clearly from a bag with those gross brown stringy bits wow”
“really good counter setup where you can actually watch the kitchen while eating their duck confit hash. server checked in just right without being annoying and wifi actually works”
“the counter stools dont have backs so after like 30 minutes theyre super uncomfortable - fine for quick breakfast but rough if you wanna linger”
“def thier eggs benedict is solid - perfectly runny yolks house made hollandaise that doesnt break and they do it on way more than just english muffins. breakfast potatoes are crispy and golden”
“gotta say no bottomless mimosas which is basically brunch crime especially when theyre charging $12 for one glass of mediocre prosecco adn oj”
“the smoked salmon benedict was outstanding - silky fish that actually tastes fresh not like pre packaged stuff. tbh the hollandaise was rich and lemony, and the english muffin held up perfect under all those layers”
“they were out of the crab cake benedict by 11am on a saturday which was disappointing since thats what i came for. seems like they need to make more of their seafood specials for weekend rush”
“the breakfast burrito is massive and only $9 - scrambled eggs, crispy potatoes, cheese, and whatever meat you want wrapped in a warm tortilla!!! could easily share it or save leftovers for lunch”
“coffee refills cost like $2 extra which seems steep when most breakfast spots at least include one refill. adds up fast when youre trying to sit adn relax over weekend brunch trust me”
