Lucked into the airbnb that I’m staying at this weekend is right next door to this awesome spot. Amazing staff, owner even took a moment to talk about coffee bean sourcing. I couldn’t leave without snagging a couple bags to take home. Along with a pour over, cinnamon roll, and the roasted tomato and cheese toast. Also had to sample their strawberry white chocolate scone and snagged the bf a chocolate / orange latte, also delicious!!

The horchata coffee is good. Not too sweet or bitter/too strong. I would like to see the menu have sugar free syrups. I feel like the menu was for customers that have been there or are familiar with it because I felt like I didn’t know what to order. The seasonal menu could have had more coffee options. But I’ll definitely be back.

After waking up before dawn on my day off I was scrolling Facebook and luxuriating in the knowledge I could snuggle in my blankets a little longer – it’s the WEEKEND! Saw a friend’s post about this cafe and had Pavlov’s dog reaction over their photo. Checked the menu and was reaching out to a friend I knew would also be up to see if they wanted to grab breakfast.
The menu offers a wide variety of coffee, latte, non-coffee, juice options. I went with the mint latte. They step fresh ment leaves to make their own syrup to be used. Has the shuttle hint of mint, as the latte is sipped. Not over powering or fake, shuttle like if you were chewing a mint leaf from the garden. My friend opted for the horchata latte, strong cinnamon but smooth. We ended up switching latte’s due to the cinnamon level, it was strong for her to do a full one. I was good with both.
We opted for the Peaches and Ricotta toast. It was covered in fresh peaches, whipped ricotta, housemade jam, candied pecans, local raw honey, lemon zest, and fresh thyme served on Union Loafers rustic sourdough.
Second choice was the cashew butter and jam toast. It was built with housemade cashew butter, seasonal jam, pumpkin seeds, thinly sliced almonds, local raw honey, bee pollen served on Union Loafers rustic sourdough.
Very fresh, refreshing, and flavorful ingredients. Farm to table with ingredients from local farms around our area. When the crowd picked up and the sun was causing the temp to raise, they opened a window making the vibe for open air cafe. They sit on the corner, so there was a cross breeze that was nice.
Great friendly staff. Great food. They open at 7:00 and have ample table space to place books out for study time – which I saw a couple of individuals doing and was glad I was able to just enjoy the space without studying.
Check them out!

Had the most delicious salad ever! It’s called the Pompeia. The best part – it was vegan! The bakery items looked amazing, but I’m trying to diet. It was my first visit, but, I’ll definitely be back.

I gave a new coffee place a shot and it was just awful. My usual place usually fills the whole cup with yogurt or at least half… felt this was a rip off for what I paid. Also looked at the bottom of the cup, and it’s a week old… I ordered a vanilla lavender coffee, but tasted zero of either flavor. It was a let down. But they were busy when I went in so perhaps that was the reason for the poor coffee. Lovely place and nice staff though!

Lovely breakfast! I ordered the whipped ricotta and jam toast and the sun goddess. Worth every bite and sip.

Everything tasted super fresh from the mint in the mint latte to the fruit and avocado on the toasts. We both loved the espresso tonics and pastries as well. My husband and I were in town for three days and came for breakfast and coffee every day. Even on what felt like a busy weekend the coffee was super quick and the food was faster than expected. Everyone was super sweet and friendly and the space was so nice to hang out in.

It’s a great place to meet friends or get some work done, and I love their patio area when it’s nice out. Their food/ baked goods are just alright nothing special. And the coffee is terrible. It’s always SO bitter. The lattes you get hardly have any flavor, so I’d say if you’re going for the coffee, don’t.

Fiddlehead Fern Café is an absolute gem tucked into the Botanical Heights neighborhood. The space is light, bright, and thoughtfully designed—like if your favorite Pinterest board came to life and started serving coffee, cocktails, and seasonal bites.
I grabbed a cozy table on the patio (yes, it’s dog-friendly!) and soaked in the sunshine, people-watching, and vibey string lights. Inside has plants and pastries everywhere you turn with a moderate noise level, even when they’re busy.
I had the beet tartine topped with egg and fresh greens—equal parts earthy, fresh, and satisfying. And the Cold Brew Martini? Baby, it was smooth, creamy, and served in a vintage glass that made me feel like I should’ve been in a 1940s jazz bar. Perfection.
Before I left, I grabbed a Lavender Lime Espresso Tonic to go, and WOW. Floral, citrusy, and just the right amount of bitter—it’s the kind of drink that makes you feel like you have your life together, even if you don’t.
Their drink menu is impressively curated so if you love craft coffee or tea lattes and cocktail artistry in equal measure, Fiddlehead Fern Café is a must. I’ll be back—probably with a book, a friend, or both.
Great for solo coffee work sessions, catching up with friends, or sipping a little something stronger in the afternoon.
Pro tip: Try the Cold Brew Martini. And thank me later.

The food was solid, but the service made the experience uncomfortable. My friend and I ordered a macchiato, the coconut curry soup, beet toast, and a pistachio croissant and sat to enjoy our meal. About 30 minutes into eating and talking, a staff member asked us to move because we were seated at a four-top.
They had already removed one of the chairs, which felt passive aggressive, but it didn’t bother us—we were still only using the space we needed. In other cafés, if seating gets tight, the norm is simply splitting the tables or politely asking to use an extra seat. Here, the tone and request made it very clear they preferred that we leave rather than find a solution.
I’ve never had a café make me feel like my presence was a problem, and I won’t be returning. Others who value inclusive, welcoming environments may want to be aware of this dynamic before choosing to dine here.
