Had heard from a friend about this new café in Waterville, and had to try it out. Went for breakfast and one of us had an almond croissant, and the other had a ham-and-cheese croissant. We both had large coffees. The coffee was great - smooth and mellow and rich. The croissants were both stellar and flaky - and the almond croissant came not only covered with toasted slivered almonds, but a healthy dab of marzipan in the center. The ham-and-cheese croissant was not overly stuffed, but there was plenty to taste and it, likewise, was marvelous. Can't wait to taste some of their many other options - or to come for lunch. The tables are substantial and the seating comfortable, though for groups larger than four people it might be crowded. The decor is truly stellar - remindful of a quaint English bakery and coffee shoppe. Important to know that they are closed Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays, but open from 8:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. the other days of the week. We'll definitely be coming back!

This is such a great spot! I picked this place to get together with some family because I saw they they had good food options for everyone, and it was the perfect choice. My mom and I ordered the shakshouka and the curried chickpea salad and both were SO fresh, perfectly seasoned, and delicious! The family was all happy with the various coffee and tea drinks, dishes, and pastries. I got the mimosa oolong tea and loved it! I love the Missoula tea company they source from and was excited to see it out here in Maine! The staff was beyond kind, patient, and accommodating for our little group. I would recommend this place to anyone! This cute spot is an excellent addition to the area.

Awesome bakery and drink selection at this Waterville gem! Had a high tea set for 6 for a celebration. Owner and staff were friendly and accommodating, and the pastries and food were good and to a high standard. Everything was delicious! Will revisit for study and work!

This is a delightful little cafe offering a nice selection of healthy options. They also have a wide selection of sweet treats and some decadent looking desserts. I had the Mediterranean quinoa salad and my husband had the chicken salad on a croissant. Both dishes were super fresh and beautifully presented. They also offer a variety of coffee drinks and the cafe has that wonderful aroma of fresh brewed coffee.

A superb cafe with a cozy atmosphere featuring a stocked bakery case filled with delicious, gorgeous treats. They have lunch items as well which never disappoint. The lattes are unique and delicious and I always leave wanting seconds. The customer service is fantastic and the it’s obvious the owner/proprietor knows what she’s doing.
