“ My husband, my BFF, and one year son visited on Sunday, September 24th. We were going to visit the old candy shop, when we passed this cafe. We were all tired, cold, and wet so we decided to stop to caffeinated ourselves to walk to the car. The owner was working today, our son ran around her shop because we were the only customers at 4pm. While in the shop, I received the news that my uncle passed away. The owner asked my husband if I was okay. That was extremely kind of her. Thank you for your kindness. We did order drinks. I ordered a cherry, maple latte it was delicious. My husband had chai, he says it was great. They do sell milk for my son to drink. Prices are reasonable. They actually have a public restroom. Rare in Salem. The shops decor is legendary. We felt at home. We did visit on Monday. We experienced good service too. This place is not in the Salem booklet. You will just have to add it to your list. It’s a must visit. ”
“ I know every breakfast sandwich review on here says the eggs are fluffy, but the people do not lie. Breakfast sandwiches were out of this world delicious!!! We got 2 with cheddar and I had the impossible sausage on mine instead of bacon. Such a delicious, hot (super hot - it's the best on a cold morning) sandwich. We also got the bees knees drink (4 shots of espresso- wow), cows on strike (vegan coffee that tasted sweet like marshmallows), and the candy bar latte (yummy!!). Would definitely recommend - it's our go to coffee stop here in Salem. Starbucks is sad compared to this place. ”
“ Great staff, lovely little place! The food was great, the drinks were well done. They had a bunch of options and the drink wear is biodegradable and not crap! Highly suggest if you're in the area ”
“ Such a lovely little shop! The coffee was delicious (I had the candy bar coffee, my husband had the bee's knees) and the breakfast sandwiches were very fresh and tasty! Loved the barista (I think thier name was Jodi?), they recommended some great spots to check out on our trip. And it's very environmentally conscious! 10/10! ”
