What People Are Saying

from Google

"The Chocolate Pistachio latte didn't tasted like chocolate neither pistachio. I even thought they gave me someone's else coffee. Wish they heat up a bit the pastries when served. Beautiful decoration and atmosphere in December. I attached the Bling Bar menu with prices."

★★★★

"The Wolf Café is such a great spot! We stopped in for coffee, cocktails, and pizza and honestly—everything was really good. I loved my latte; the only critique I could give is that it could’ve been just a touch hotter, but the flavor was spot on. The vibe here is fantastic—welcoming, cozy, and just a really fun place to hang out. It would be perfect for a small family get-together or a casual meet-up with friends. Definitely a place I’d come back to. Follow me on Instagram @thenextcoffeestop for more coffee recommendations! ☕✨"

"I’m thoroughly impressed every time I eat here. I’m not vegan, but the black bean burger is phenomenal. Plenty of options for everyone- meat eaters, vegan, or GF. The food quality is great."

"Upon walking in, my husband and I were pleasantly surprised by how cute this small restaurant was. It was still decorated for their Bling Christmas pop up so that might explain the fun looking atmosphere. My husband had just gotten off his midnight shift and we decided to do a date "morning" instead of a date night since his schedule is upside down right now. We were optimistic and happy to try something new. That's where our positive experience ended. One person was working the counter when we walked in. She was helping someone so we stood and waited our turn. There were no signs telling us to seat ourselves and never having been there we waited to be greeted by another server or worker. Never happened. When the woman was done helping her customer my husband asked her if we should seat ourselves. She said yes. We sit down and again- unsure what the protocol is since we are new to the establishment, we waited for a server to bring menus. They were not on the table like you would normally see in a "seat yourself" kind of place. At least 3 people walk back and forth without saying a word to us (as we sat looking obviously clueless), Ironically as we sat and waited, I saw a sign that said "We don't hate here" in English and several other languages. Well. Apparently they don't show kindness either because literally, workers walking past us, don't even acknowledge our presence and no, it was not busy. No one asked if they could help us. No one offered to show us the ropes. Cool. It's a figure it out kind of place. No problem with counter service. So my husband got up and looked around and found the menus by the counter. We looked at the menu. Everything looked good. We loved the farm to table items. We liked how it actually said where your food came from. This is why we chose to try The Wolf Cafe in the first place. But, as we talked, and continued to sit for at least 10 minutes without so much as a head nod from an employee, we decided this was not how we wanted to start our day or spend our money. It seemed we were not welcome so, we quietly got up and left. I think the take away from this review for anyone who maybe reading this is, food and atmosphere are important. My husband and I love an intentionally decorated local restaurant and who doesn't love locally sourced food. However, human interaction, kindness, acknowledgement mean far more. Another sign said they had no wifi and to "talk to each other". The staff should probably take that to heart. We would rather go to waffle house and have Sally Sue make us feel welcome and seen than go to a decently cute place with a really bad vibe. We did go to another breakfast place in The Valley where we were greeted by 3 different people before even getting to our table. Any employee who walked by smiled. THAT'S how you do business friends. In a world where you can be anything.... Be kind."
