Really great clean modern cafe with amazing coffee and treats. Last I checked they open at 7am and they are close to the 18th st pink line so you can stop for coffee before you hit the city! I love the loose leaf tea! They also have free wifi

Quick breakfast spot, small family owned. You just sit at the counter. I think they may only take cash. Basic stuff like eggs and toast, etc. Decent though. It's called the park view dinner. They have good reviews on yelp!
