Reviews
The second time, I decide to order my usual drink, matcha. I knew as soon as they called my name, I knew that the matcha would not be good. The color was not nearly vibrant enough, and all I can taste is oatmilk. I’m disappointed at the quality of the drink considering the cost, but I also understand that coffee forward places do not usually excel at other drinks (esp matcha). I would warn matcha connoisseurs to avoid fig’s matcha and either order something else, or order somewhere else. I’ll likely still return, but definitely not for anything other than muffins and/or coffee sadly.
Food: The drinks were very refreshing and a great wake up jolt of caffeine. I was intrigued by the espresso soda and I was not disappointed. It was such a nice blend of fruity flavors that slide perfectly into a familiar coffee taste. The sweet ricotta toast and the egg cheddar sandwich were amazing! The sourdough and ciabatta were the stars and their great bready textures made for perfect vehicles.
Service: The staff worked like a well oiled machine but still offered great hospitality!
Atmosphere: The popularity does cause the cafe to be busy but everyone was very respectful of one another’s space so it wasn’t an overwhelming crowd. The decorations also added to the energetic atmosphere.
No laptops which makes for a more wholesome vibe. There’s always dogs and babies here :).
Hot chocolate – actually pretty good dark chocolate flavor, not overly sweet
Pepper biscuit with bacon – great BEC, eggs could benefit from some added seasoning but pepper biscuit is delicious
Mocha was also good! Very cozy atmosphere
Visited this past weekend to try some of their breakfast sandwiches and pastries. They had limited outdoor tables and no indoor seatings, and since the place was already extremely crowded, we decided to do a takeout instead.
Out of the breakfast sandwiches, my favorite was the egg & feta sandwich with a brioche bun. The combination of cheesy egg, spinach, and tomato was simple yet decadent. The pepper biscuit sandwich and the market sandwich were good but not exactly hype worthy. We also got some pastries and the Greek yogurt on the side. While the tahini brownie was amazing, the berry & orange cupcake was too dry on the inside and mediocre at best.
Out of the few breakfast places in the area, 3 Little Figs definitely stands out with its classic and creative sandwich selections, but I wouldn’t recommend going for their pastries.
