Best avocado toast EVER! 2 people could probably share this 1/2 order, the basil aoli, feta and balsamic glaze are sooo good together with the bacon, acid and egg! Great service, friendly staff, and lots of other yummy menu items, fresh baked goodies and fresh brewed coffees. Make this a must try for breakfast/brunch or lunch!
