Owner-operated from day one — wide windows, good light, and a menu that covers everything from your first coffee to a late-night slice.

My friend and I stopped in after seeing a video on social media and we’re so glad we did! The pizza was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. We couldn’t resist trying the gelato too, and it was the perfect sweet ending. Phyllis was so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. She checked in a lot to make sure we didn’t need anything extra. This is a neighborhood gem! Definitely worth the visit — we’ll be back soon to try other pizza and gelato

We visited this charming new café during its opening week and were thoroughly impressed. The owners personally greeted us with genuine warmth, making us feel truly welcome. The service overall was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and wonderfully accommodating to our group. I enjoyed the pistachio gelato, which was rich and delicious, and also sampled the speculoos flavor, which was equally delightful. We are already looking forward to returning, especially to try their pizza offerings!

Stopped in for some Gelato tonight. The employee was very friendly. Offered us samples and provided great service. This place will definitely be my go-to for Gelato!

Great neighborhood spot to stop! They are still working on getting all their offerings up and running but I swung by for a quick gelato and it was amazing! Good variety, guy behind the counter was friendly and helpful, said they are looking to expand their food menu and get their espresso machine delivered in the next week or too. Great to see new local establishments get up and running!
