"It always a great time. Just love Claris she’s the best. She adds so much to the place. The food is always great. St Martin Omelet is the best."

"I was skeptical going to a bakery with having a wheat allergy. I surprisingly had many choices. The omelets are large and I was able to eat the buckwheat crepes without any reactions. It is a cash only restaurant."

"Always a go to spot for wonderful French pastries and scrumptious breakfasts! The European coffee is great tasting and along with many types of pastries they have crepes, quiche, and omelettes. Well worth the visit!"
