We grabbed coffees, a muffin and slice of cranberry bread for the road. The service was fine but the baked goods were not good at all. Both, sadly were super dry. I would not grab something to eat there.

We picked up sandwiches for our hikes along with coffee and pastries to eat on the run. Nothing spectacular but easy in the early mornings.

We were just wandering around town. And actually noticed it by the wonderful smell, I think of baking. We ordered two great sandwiches. Very nice

Don't bother with Evelyn's....this is the place to have breakfast and get coffee "to go"! Owner was just taking fresh scones out of the oven when we came it. Very nice place and people! We took their great food on several hikes....it is not on the main drag, but do go out of your way to find this place. Deserves... More

We had both a breakfast and lunch here and enjoyed both. The price was reasonable and the staff was helpful and seemed happy to see us. It's easy to overlook but I recommend it.

You could walk past this place without noticing looks more like a cafre from the street. Great value for lunch or just a drink & cake.

Came here after having horrible food from Evelyn's Coffee (stale muffin, food poisoning from their veggie roll), and had a great soy latte and cake with friends. I wish this place was near where I live so I could go there more often! I think I might like their coffee drinks better than most of the cafes near my home.

We went to Evelyn's first and left. Found Cake Company Cafe instead and were impressed enough to come back the next day as well. Their breakfast sausage sandwiches were a big hit with our travelling companions... I particularly enjoyed their apple pastries and cinnamon rolls! Great value. Owner was working behind the counter and busing tables. Fantastic French lady helping... More
