  Great food freshly prepared by Achmed and served by Maria, the couple who own this place, which is the best breakfast/lunch joint I have found in Lafayette. I come with a few friends after our weekly walk around the Reservoir and we are unanimous in our appreciation of the menu and the folks. Wonderful!

  Great atmosphere, fantastic food and impeccable service. This place is a great little secret. Breakfasts are substantial and healthy with plenty of options.The coffee is some of the best I've ever had. Bread for burgers and sandwiches are baked every day by Ahmed. His chicken salad is amazing!

  Fresh food, great service, and zero environmental footprint! Maria hand picks the music which really made a difference. From tango to Abba, it made my experience very enjoyable and relaxing! I will be back!!

  I really wanted to like this place because I'd love to support a local small bakery. Unfortunately, it left much to be desired. The only silver lining would be the man whom I think does the baking - he was very sweet and tried to be as helpful as possible.
  
  The same cannot be said for the woman who seems to run the place.
  I bought a chocolate cookie for my son and a loaf of cinnamon raisin bread. When she rung me up I was shocked that this small cookie was $3.50! When I said, "It's 3.50 for that cookie?" She smirked and said, "Just try it". Well I tried it and threw away 3/4 of it - one of the worst cookies I've ever had - dry and crumbled in my fingers when I tried to break off a piece for my son.
  
  This woman was also condescending to the man who seems to do the baking (the nice one). I do not support managers who are rude to their staff. They do not take credit cards, when I tried to pay with one, she scolded the man and said, "Did you not tell her we don't take credit cards?" And I said, "Well I just took my credit card out so he wouldn't have known to tell me that". And when I came back from my car with cash she told the man to ring me up since she was too busy chit chatting and then chastised him for doing it wrong. Since it's a cafe - maybe their food is better than their cookies.
