Walking in you can seat yourself. Quaint and Cozy spot. The staff here does not change and the food has been spot on every time. Great spot if you dinning alone or with others. They have a kid friendly menu and vegetarian options as well. If you come here enough they will definitely remember you

This place is fantastic! The staff are wonderful, very accommodating, helpful, kind. The food is delicious always cooked to perfection. There’s also vegan options which I enjoy. The drinks are phenomenal, highly recommend the matcha ginger chai. And you get a bang for your buck. 10/10 would recommend

Went to Brewed Awakening with my bf and loved it! We were seated right away, the place was calm, and our server was super nice and attentive. We had chai matcha, iced coffee, smoothies, and the chorizo la papa with bacon, egg, and French toast everything was delicious. Highly recommend for great food, friendly service, and a cozy vibe!

What an amazing experience I had with my new friend Sandra, the service provided by Belén was excellent, she served, checked in and made us feel welcome. The cafe latte was beautifully made with heart. Literally and physically. Keep smiling and serving your customers every day. You provided service with purpose and care.
To the owners of Brew and Awakening, I would not have believed your establishment was there for 28 years. Your decor and atmosphere was quiet and inviting, you allow your customers the space to gather and enjoy a meal and drink without feeling the rush of the day and for that I am grateful. Here’s to another 40 years of great customer service and quality of food.

I’m in town on business and came here alone to experience what I thought was an amazing brunch spot. (Passed on hundreds of options) just to be disappointed. The young man at the front greeted me, told me I can sit anywhere and he’d bring me a menu. Cool. Sat outside. I waited almost 15 minutes for that menu. The woman that took my order was extremely pleasant. My food came out rather quick. The man who greeted me came out and asked if I needed anything else I asked for plastic cutlery and butter. He brought both including ketchup and syrup. Well…the ketchup had a special ingredient…gnats. I poured the ketchup on the plate to dip my potatoes in and after one scoop I realized what I thought was some type of seasoning was actually gnats. It was a lot too. I opened the top to the bottle and it was full of them. I was sick to my stomach. Lost my appetite. I went inside (because no one came out to check on me) to show my server and she apologized and took the bottle and plate inside. About 10 minutes later the cook came out and brought me a plate with my omelette remade. I wasn’t even expecting it nor did I want it remade. I wanted the manager to come out and personally apologize, but that never happened. The cook only said that’s never happened and someone apparently left a bottle open. I felt disregarded. I came to spend money in this establishment and my meal was easily over $30. I ordered a caramel oat milk latte, pancakes, and omelet with vegan cheese, Turk saus, mushrooms and jalapeños. I was excited for the dairy free options as I have a sensitivity to dairy but this experience was a huge let down. I won’t ever come back here.

“Brewed Awakening” has a great vibe and warm service; the décor and atmosphere make it a cozy spot to hang out. The latte (apple & caramel) was enjoyable, but the regular coffee and cappuccino were a letdown, extra hot as requested, but the taste was so off we ended up throwing them away. Overall, a decent place for the vibe and certain drinks, but definitely not consistent on the coffee quality.

My wife and I visited for brunch on a beautiful cloudless, Saturday afternoon! The food was nothing super special, but we enjoyed the banana mocha chiller that we ordered as a drink! So much so that it would be worth it to return just for that!
