This is a little gem of a place. Freshly made to order (which makes for a little wait) sandwiches, toasts, bowls, and specialty hot and iced drinks. They also have a nice selection of gluten-free and regular baked goods. I've only had sandwiches and toasts and all have been excellent and surprising. Today I had a mushroom and pickled onion toast that was extremely delicious, fresh and very flavorful. The vegetarian sandwiches I've had are outstanding (they do great things with chickpeas). There are also more conventional options like a BLT and a variation on a turkey club that are very good. It's a small place but comfortable seating and nice light, with a couple of tables for two outside. They also have a small selection of locally-made jewelry and gifts. Friendly, warm service. Very much worth a visit. Glad they're here in Bridgewater and only wish they were in walking distance from the town center so I could go more often.

Loved our experience here! The owners were so kind, knowledgable of their product, passionate & generous! Loved being able to enjoy vegan, gluten free pastries! Chris even showed me the ingredient booklet he had behind the counter and as someone who really goes out of my way to avoid certain ingredients, this was SO appreciated !! We chilled here basically the whole day, had coffee (with HOME MADE cashew milk!!! are you kidding me! NO ONE does that! THANK YOU!!) and a brownie, then a breakfast acai bowl, avo toast on gf bread -which was actually good compared to othe gf breads I've had- and then continued with lunch of a roasted veg bowl and a chickpea tuna sandwich. The vibe was sooo relaxing and cute. And happy plants say a lot about a space! I saw many grateful customers come in and out throughout the day. I never felt cramped or like I was taking up space from someone else while working on my laptop. Chris brought out a few things for us to sample throughout our stay here as well and that really makes them stand out! They actually cared about our experience. We don't frequent this area, but we are going to have to come back for a special trip just to say hello again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND !! Thank you guys so much!! - Kendra & John

This is a gem! Food is very good, the menu and selection is great. The atmosphere is very comfortable and inviting Ting, and there is even a small table for kids to play with toys and books. The owner, Andrea, is very thoughtful about the little details which makes this place a great stop.

As someone who had to start a gluten free diet last year from an autoimmune disease, when I found out this cafe opened a couple of miles from me I was ecstatic. I went this morning during their soft launch and although the menu didn’t advertise gluten free bread for sandwiches, they did have it available. I’m not celiac so I didn’t ask about cross contamination or cooking surfaces, and it hasn’t been 24 hours yet which is when I would get symptoms of gluten, but so far I will say the food is the best gluten free breakfast food I’ve had to date. The gluten free bread seems to be homemade - it’s so good I questioned for a minute if it was actually gluten free. The muffins were amazing as well. They were still warm from just coming out of the oven. The guy working at the counter was super helpful and friendly and I could see a few people cooking out back who I think were the owners. It means the WORLD to people like me who are forced into eating gluten free after decades of eating gluten containing foods that there are good quality options in the area. Everything was super fresh and I’m guessing the owner is a baker by how fresh and high quality the bread and baked goods were. The atmosphere was also super cute with a comfy couch and a little tic tac toe set. Thank you to the owners for caring about us GF folks! Can’t wait to come back.

Such a sweet cafe spot. The baristas are kind and personable. They made it a point to interact with my child and ask her, her favorite color. I thought that was wonderful. It made her so happy! Juices are incredible! I loved my hydrated beauty juice. The flowers they stuck on the cup melted my heart. Bonus points for the homemade sourdough bread they sell to take home. We’ll be enjoying this for a couple of days until we come back for more!

Can't wait to get back here, best acai bowl I've ever had. I ordered the honey love. Drooling thinking about it. The acai was frosty and delicious and the homemade granola was the best.

We really enjoyed our visit here. I am always looking got new cafes and coffee shops, especially ones where we can get out of the house and hang out at for a little while. It was very roomy and inviting for us to hang out. The staff were exceptionally nice. I had a Greek bowl which I loved and a mushroom cacao drink which was also very good. They had a small kids section which a few books and toys. There was even a baby nursery rhyme book we enjoyed! We can’t wait to visit again and bring friends!
