What People Are Saying
from Google"This is a charming little cafe tucked within the beautiful and historic Henry Clay Estate! When you eat here, you will get not only delicious food, but friendly and knowledgeable staff as well. I eat here at least once a week!! My go to order is half an egg salad sandwich with a cup of soup. Their cold soups (vichyssoise and gazpacho) are delightful, filling, and refreshing on a hot summer day!"
