Everything on the menu is made from scratch with locally sourced ingredients that make for fresh and flavorful dishes. The effortless vibe of casual yet stylish makes for the perfect place to celebrate the joy of the unexpected coming together to make the perfect culinary match.

Love this hidden gem. The staff are fabulous, the food is delicious with beautiful presentation and their craft cocktails are magic. Amazing happy hour and a fun tipsy tea. Don’t forget to try the scones. Gorgeous outside area as well especially when the weather is nice. Haven’t tried the Sunday brunch yet but I can’t wait to get there soon.
