★★★★★ 5.0 Sidney Ellen Scott · Jan 2026

I sauntered into this little corner coffee shop today and loved the cozy, living-room vibes I walked into! Lots of rustic and homey elements that make me wish I had brought my laptop in so I could work from here all day. I got a vanilla latte and it was delicious and not too sweet. I also got a ham, egg, and cheese croissant. The croissant was fresh and buttery! Simple flavors, which is exactly how I like my breakfast. The staff was very friendly and were chatting with many of the people who seemed to be frequent returners. That’s always a good sign! I’d recommend visiting this coffee shop, if you’re ever in the King Street area.

Good spot for a coffee, they had a lot of low fat yogurt muffins which I really liked! Also the breakfast sandwich was good and the ice coffee was giant.

Small place with fast service & friendly owners. Offering sandwiches, bagels, coffee & teas. If you are staying in Hyatt across street - worth visiting for a breakfast. Recommend The Uptowner sandwich & any hot sandwiches. May skip teas and settled for mineral water or coffee. Sandwich+ juice will be about $ 13 with tip. The place has some seating outside along King street but it will be sun-light by noon.

Whenever we're in town we stop here because it's usually very good. Got an assortment of muffins today to take a breakfast with family and the pumpkin muffins tasted like they were at least 3 days old. So dry I think my cup holder would have been better. Was just going to let it go but for the price I thought I should call. Got a "I'm sorry" but nothing else. Not a very sorry what can I do for you or we'd be happy to give you a refund. Absolutely nothing other than a too bad, so sad attitude. Definitely scratch this place off our Alexandria list

Adorable Cafe with rustic seating that makes a cozy environment. Super pleasant first thing in the morning. The white chocolate mocha is smooth and awesome! Fresh bagels available and to die for low fat muffins! A definite try for a breakfast or lunch date, or just quietly reading a book for one!
