Located just inside the Armory building on Highland Ave., the café is a great meeting spot to grab specialty coffee, like lattes, cappuccinos and beyond, a great selection of teas, freshly baked muffins and an assortment of other baked goods, as well as fresh breakfast sandwiches like bacon, egg and cheese, or an egg sandwich on a bagel or on regular bread if preferred, bagels with cream cheese, oatmeal and smoothies.

I opted for a bacon, egg and cheddar on a croissant with a cappuccino, my usual! If you’re looking for soups, salads or sandwiches, they have that covered too. They even offer a soup and half sandwich as an option if you’re wanting to try both!

On this particular day they had lentil soup, apple butternut squash or a turkey sausage with kale. They also serve salads, such as a Chef salad, Caesar salad, along with vegetarian options. Sandwiches like the classic BLT, chicken salad, tuna, or a variety of other sandwiches including turkey or roast beef with cheese, arugula, lettuce, tomatoes and avocado.

It’s a great spot that offers plenty of off street parking. And currently on Saturday mornings from 9:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., the Winter Farmers Market will be running through April 11.
