Extremely confused how this place has the reviews it does. No one greets you when you walk in. We stood there for a solid 2 min before being acknowledged which makes no sense because the ordering area is very small. They have a "coloring" area with little chairs I'm assuming for kids. Everything was dirty, broken, missing pieces just a flat out mess. They have condoms, lube & fentanyl testing kits right where you sit & eat. This place is weird as hell. The food was less than mediocre. I got a decaf Nutella latte. Tasted nothing like Nutella. This place is a very hard pass for me.

I got the veggie sandwich and the hazelnut latte! The bread was the ideal amount of crispy, they were generous with their avocado portion, and the overall sandwich was (relatively) large- satisfying/filling! The latte was decent, it would've been perfect if it wasn't watered down (the ice hadn't melted at all, so it wasn't due to the ice).The employee at the register was unwelcoming, appearing very bored throughout our entire interaction. She was somewhat helpful when I asked for a recommendation and what ingredients were in the sandwich, however, she seemed irritated that I even asked. The cafe was quiet, clean, and beautifully decorated showcasing local artists and events. It was chilly due to the AC, however, it was tolerable in a T-shirt; I would recommend bring a jacket inside.Unfortunately, I had to minus 1 star for the service (which was surprising due to the positive reviews... maybe today was an off-day?) but otherwise it was a good experience!

Checked out Yelp for a brunch resto near by my Keystone appointment and this came up !Was packed and busy with mostly which seems like college students hang out.Ordered a breakfast croissant with salami, ham and pepper jack cheese !Had to wait for an available table and by the time we got one and our order was about 30 minutes since order was taken!Piped in Music not so loud and conversations among the customers are pretty mellow! An Art Cart Corner provided art supplies to entertain young artists as well as those adults who are young at hearts !!Comics display everywhere the cafe to browse for in house reading as well as purchasing them !!!The croissant was deliciously toasty which never had it served that way ! My hot drink was awesome with the right sweetness and lukewarm chocolate flavor !This place was voted Yelp's People Loves Us in 2023!I would surely come back when in the area!

Place packed and busy. Clean organized. Friendly service. Delicious ham and salami croissant. Really good turkey omelette and avocado croissant. Very friendly and comfortable casual atmosphere. Price reasonable.Good hangout place for socialization or study. Not set up though for convenient computer plug in outlets (need own extension). Small art corner with papers, markers and pencil available for some practice artwork. Place sells comics working with indie comics distributor Birdcage Bottom Books (check them out online). Definitely a place to visit when around the area.

I loved the idea of this place, and isn't that what we look for in local coffee shops? The soul and vibe and the owner who helped take my order gave me such a welcome and connected me immediately to what inspired and keeps this place vibrant. Looking forward to attending their workshops and open mic nights. The chairs are a bit cold and loud, but that's easily remedied with a jacket. The outlets were plentiful and the guests all seemed to get their orders fairly quickly. The croissant soy chorizo was small, but delicious, and was even featured in the comic book that explained the origin story of this business. Way to go!

Came here on a Saturday morning to get some work done. The place has a lot of decorations with a nice vibe to it. I chose a table although they also have couches to sit down at. I ordered a lemonade with lavender as an added flavor. They had many different flavors to choose from. It had a nice subtle flavor.I also ordered an Italian sandwich and it was really good! I'd go back and order it again. When I was leaving I met the owner that was working next door. He was very nice and mentioned how they host different events at this cafe and in the building next to it. Overall I had a really nice experience here!

Surprisingly very cute name and theme of the cafe. but i thought there would be more comic themed items/library in the cafe. However, it just had more bookshelf random items and books for sale instead.I got the turkey sandwich and switched to a croissant and it was sooo yum! I highly recommend this place. I havent tried the coffee or breakfast sandwich but i would definitely make this a go-to whenever i come into Loma Linda. Lots of parking in this strip mallCoworkers got the salami ones and said it hit the spot.

Yum! I was walking to Starbucks to get my usual and stumbled upon this place. Saw a review recommending the blueberry latte and I was not disappointed. Also, got a veg bfast sandwich and it was delicious. 10/10 would recommend over Starbucks. Many coffee options and can tell the food and coffee was good quality.
