I was able to work virtually from here. The breakfasts are great, the iced coffee is absolutely fantastic and the owner is very sweet. She runs this with her three boys. It's also pet friendly. They have a few rescue dogs they've picked up off the street which is very kind of them and they get extra points from me for that. Very clean and good service.
