This is the kind of business I feel so good about supporting. Locally owned and operated, amazing food and drinks, and great values.
I am pretty particular about my coffee and both the coffee drinks and the Monsoon Roastery beans and cold brew you can get to go are phenomenal.
My go to coffee drink is the espresso & tonic with purple rain syrup. A unique and tasty drink that I just can’t seem to get enough of.
Thanks to Tim and Andrea and all the owners and staff for creating this local gem.

I had a great experience at Urban Food Brood. The atmosphere was welcoming and the entire staff made it feel like a place you actually want to hang out in. The food was fresh, came out in a timely fashion, and tasted amazing.
The peanut butter Butterfinger iced latte was incredible — easily one of the best specialty lattes I’ve had. Tim, the barista, was awesome and very pleasant. Andrea was quick getting my food out, and everyone at the register had a smile on their face. You can tell they care about customer service.
Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

Multiple businesses housed within the Food Brood. The atmosphere is so comfortable, eclectic chic, I loved sitting here surrounded by books with my goat cheese breakfast sandwich. There’s also a butcher, a freeze-dried food stand, and Artisan stands. The staff was SO friendly and kind, I felt welcomed right away and the food was SO good. This sandwich brought me back to life

Beautiful concept — disastrously managed.
What should have been an enjoyable dining experience quickly turned into an exercise in frustration and disbelief. We waited over 45 minutes for basic food items while watching several tables seated after us receive their meals first. The food runner seemed completely lost — pacing back and forth with plates, unsure where anything was going.
To make matters worse, we were overcharged by nearly $57 because the cashier rang up six cocktails instead of one. Such an error, combined with the disorganization we witnessed, made it clear this establishment has serious operational issues.
Adding insult to injury, my boyfriend — who specifically requested no pork due to dietary restrictions — was served pork anyway, despite the modification being clearly listed on the printed check. This wasn’t a simple oversight; it was pure negligence. Serving someone an ingredient they explicitly requested to avoid is unacceptable in any restaurant.
When I raised these concerns to a woman who turned out to be the owner, I was met with defensiveness, excuses, and zero accountability. She offered a partial apology but no solution, only explaining that there were “two line cooks” and that they were busy — as if that justified the chaos, the incorrect order, or the overcharge. Her dismissive and irritated demeanor made it abundantly clear that she cared more about the line out the door than the guests already seated.
The concept itself has potential, but the execution, leadership, and customer care are abysmal. If you value your time, your money, or your dietary safety, I strongly suggest you dine elsewhere.

I love this unique friendly and fun establishment. I’ve taken my teen hear for his bday, they overheard us talking about it. The owner asked if they could bring him some cake to celebrate. We had a delicious breakfast then they surprised him with cake and sang happy birthday. It was a great way to start this bday weekend. The decor is beautiful and I love that you can gather to connect and not be rushed out the door. There is so much creativity hidden in every nook around the building. I love it and thank you for making my son’s birthday morning special.

I consider the Brood our local Cheers! Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name! This wonderful space is so full of love, compassion, inclusiveness and culture that it really is one of a kind! The way local businesses have come together to create a center hub of yummy food, DELICIOUS coffee, snacks, body products, clothing and more, it is a safe haven during such difficult times! 10/10!

The most welcoming and relaxing place to spend weekend morning. My daughter (3 years old) and I devour their pastries, egg sandwiches, and incredible French toast. The top notch coffee and friendly, wonderful staff makes this our favorite place!

This cafe is an absolute treasure! My partner and I were visiting from NYC (so I’ve had my fair share of lovely cafes we’ve visited) and I needed a place to work. This place is so eclectic, with a conglomerate of local businesses in one large space, it’s lively but not too noisy, has plenty of workspace and comfy areas for lounging, and served by the friendliest staff. We got an oatmilk latte, purple rain mocha (so good!), and a vegan burrito that was delicious. HIGHLY recommend supporting this gem.
