      I got an espresso, everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and a side of bacon. The bagel was a little different than your average everything bagel with seeds and oats and possibly made with some whole grains, with a fresh soft taste and texture. The scallion was fresh and really elevated the cream cheese. The bacon was perfect in flavor, thickness and crispiness with the slightest chew. The espresso double shot was very good imo (they use dark matter coffee and what looked like a very expensive espresso machine).

      The service was good. Small place and one person behind the counter when I was there. And the music was actually good.

      I was pleasantly surprised by what I got, so I'll be back to try their main menu items. Seems a bit pricey for the space but if the quality and flavor are there, it's worth it.

      I saw this place on the Edgewater neighborhood Facebook page that Im in, so thought I would give it a try and to a support local businesses.

      I went to the one on Bryn Mawr, next to redline station. I love this place! Small and very quaint. The owner was soooo nice and very welcoming.

      He spent time telling us about their coffee, freshness and roasting. Something you really don't hear that often in a coffee shop these days.

      I had a triple Cappuccino. It was sooooooo good! The espresso was so good and tasted so fresh. No burnt taste or bitterness!

      We also ordered food. I wasn't expecting a full menu (breakfast, lunch and desserts). I was hungry so it worked out perfectly. I had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich w/ fries and my beastie ordered the House salad (pics included).

      The Grilled Chicken Sandwich was so juicy, flavorful and the bun was so soft! House Salad was also delicious. It was fresh, no brown lettuce and so tasty.

      I will definitely be back to this place. A definite MUST TRY and a great addition to the Edgewater neighborhood.

      They have other sites but today Feb. 17 is their opening day. I was fortunate enough to be their first customer. My neighborhood is low on actual places that serve traditional American breakfast. I have wanted one for years. I had the eggs and potatoes breakfast. The eggs were good but they always are. The potatoes were ideal . It was diced potatoes cooked well with green peppers and cheese. There was not too much cheese , a good thing because it allows appreciation of the potatoes. They have a lot of different styles of coffee, meals like grepes, breakfasts, sandwiches and a few deserts. I was very happy with the meal both how it was cooked and how it was presented.

      Open less than a month in this location after a quick but we'll done remodel of this small space. Chalking it up to new, but not everything on the menu has actually been available in my visits so far. However, everything they do/did have is/was fresh and delicious. The crepes are practically perfect. I'm not a coffee drinker, so can't comment on that. But a great addition to Bryn Mawr. I hope they thrive.
