First visit, quite liked it. Quite bust midweek late lunch but impressed with service, quality and the food itself. I got the Thai Rice salad with gf cornbread (salty and yummy) -- generous portions. Salad was delicious but I wished it had more lettuce and less rice. My friend had avocado toast with egg and she was happy with it. Hopping busy but we could hear ourselves talk at indoor table so it was fine. Love how big their loaf slices are! I watched worker cut pieces and was amazed how she made sure every cut was the same size (knife width). Great place.

One of my absolute favorite places to grab a bite, a latte, meet with friends or pick up a nice edible gift! Locally owned, they also have a stand at the Foothills Farmers Market. Gluten free options, great coffee drinks, pastries and their food is wonderful! Recently I got the breakfast sandwich on their incredible gluten free bread. Melted cheese, bacon, egg and caramelized onions. They always have a weekly specials menu, don’t miss that! Such inventive and delicious offerings.

From the moment you walk in you know you are in a special place....happy diners and friendly staff greet you! .....and then, there's that wall of bread!! The cakes look so beautiful, the quiche so tempting, and the excellent selection of pastries! I grabbed a sandwich shaped loaf, a baguette, and a decaf latte and went on my merry way. Can't wait to return!

EDIT: I'm obsessed w their savory bread loaves. So good for fancy deli sándwiches and hearty breakfast toasts at home. They slice so nicely. The density is great. Fantastic quality + consistency. 1st PURCHASE: Extremely friendly staff manning the table at the WED farmer's market in Sacramento. Olive loaf was better than Faria (!). Apricot scone and muffins on the crumbly side. My cornflake cookie fell apart. I'll be back for bread.
