This is one of my favorite breakfast spots in Lafayette. The espresso is great and the breakfast options are fresh and delicious. The spot is known for their scotch eggs which are amazing- highly recommend!

Been coming here about once a week for the past year, and I've tried almost everything on the menu at this point. Both the breakfast and the lunch are fresh and delicious. I love that they have extra condiments like hot sauce available. Good vegetarian options (try the black bean burger!) Removed 1 star for service because they've gotten my order wrong once or twice (out of dozens). Owner is very friendly and the whole staff is awesome.

We stopped here on our way back to Texas. Everything was homemade. We had the breakfast sandwich, sausage biscuits, and beignets. They were all yummy. Great little place to stop.

Absolutely phenomenal breakfast. The sausage on the croissant sandwich was out of this world and was a huge piece with two eggs and cheese for less than $5. The coffee is locally roasted and is great. The service is great. The space is clean and has good parking and is fast if you’re in a hurry. Counter serve and drive thru. Locally owned and the owner took my order. I wish there were places like this everywhere I go but that would make it way less special

This was another place recommended by my sister. I must say I was quite impressed! The atmosphere was pretty chill with good music, and it had big city cafe vibes. The menu is pretty easy to understand. I got the BLT with sweet potato fries and a sweet tea. The BLT was delicious with a decent amount of bacon. The sweet potato fries were AMAZING!! I asked for just a sprinkle of sugar and it was the perfect amount. The sweet tea was good as well. Next time I'd like to try their famous Scotch eggs!! 😉

Really good! Food was delicious. Love scotch eggs. The Chai latte was also delicious, it had a lot of good spice. Wish we lived closer, we'd definitely go more often. Really friendly atmosphere

Absolutely charming little spot that I'm mad I didn't try sooner. Staff were a joy, the place is tight-knit but comfortable, food was great. The sweet potato fries are a standout alone. Seriously, bury me in them. The sweet potato biscuit was also delicious, very pillowy and not too sweet. The scotch eggs were good! Tried the potato and the chicken, nice crunch and good flavor. Will come back to try the pork next! The sausage & cheese stuffed in a buttery, soft biscuit, absolutely transcendent. The 14 spice chicken wrap, albeit heavy on the lettuce (my fault! subbed out the tomato!), was so so good. The chicken and the ranch they use carry, I couldn’t stop eating it. And an iced mocha! For a coffee enjoyer, it definitely was closer to chocolate milk; but for my non-coffee drinking spouse it's exactly what you expect: a mocha. We will be back and will be trying more!!
