This place felt spacious and everything was very clean. I love the mission and that they are empowering this community of individuals. I do think additional supervision would be helpful. I had a few laughs as I helped an employee open their snacks and move tables because I was asked to assist. The staff is Extremely friendly and talkative so just be mindful of that. We got the BLT panini and the chicken pizza. It was simple and good. I highly recommend checking this place out and knowing you are supporting a great community!

Had a great breakfast here! My bacon, egg, and cheese croissant was fresh and tasty, and the chai tea was perfect. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. What really stood out to me is that this location works with individuals with disabilities. I love seeing a business create opportunities and build an inclusive environment. It made the visit feel even more meaningful.

This a business that employs people with developmental disabilities.
The bread for the peanut butter and jelly was clearly made fresh. They roast the coffee beans in house, you can smell it. People with developmental disabilities grow the veggies in the garden.
Some people have no clue how hard it is for people with developmental disabilities to obtain MEANINGFUL employment. Being a parent of an adult/child with developmental disabilities is one of the World’s biggest challenges. WE NEED PLACES LIKE THIS TO GIVE PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES A CHANCE.

Oh my word……come one come all. Stopped for a coffee, walked out with a cherry turnover and a blackberry mocha. This is a training ground for people with disabilities. They unfortunately opened before the pandemic and now need public support to get back on track. Everything is baked on site. The coffee is roasted on site. And, I was told they make a killer eggs benedict or eggs florentine. Their lettuce is grown hydroponic on site. Come and support this awesome place! It’s warm, welcoming and fresh ambience will warm your soul.

Such a warm, wonderful atmosphere with great food and coffee options. Karen made up a decaf drink just for me and made sure I liked it. 🙂 The people there are kind to the customers and to one another. I love that they have the opportunity for job training and work in a positive environment.

My heart is happy, I have spent four hours here today and I love the atmosphere, the people and the “reason” why this place is so important to our local community. They give back so well and the people here are truly taken care of and loved. Nick, Sebastian, Laura, and Matt all treated me with the ultimate kindness. You won’t regret supporting this.

This is an excellent coffee shop and restaurant in town! My wife and I love coming here for lunch every time we are in the area shopping. She loves the Chick Pesto wrap, and I love all of the sandwiches. The service is great. You wouldn’t think you’d get table side service here, but you do. You order and they bring the food to your and you can even pay at the table.
I really enjoy their coffee and always take a bag of coffee beans home with me. BEST FLAVOR of any and tops any you get at the chain places.
Stop for coffee or for food and you will not be disappoint.
Here is a picture of some delicious desert that was served hot with ice-cream!
