Went in at 3:30 & was told they were closed when they were still making coffee & had pastries. When I walked in, they took the menus away & continued serving the white girls sitting down.

Have your pastries to go. We were so disappointed by our experience. Having lived in Denmark we were so excited to hear about this place & looked forward to it. There's very little Danish about this cafe except for the floral arrangements, maybe. Surprised to read the team actually went to Copenhagen to get inspired. Looks like they completely missed out on the concept of hygge which is not just about design, but service! Pastries were the only redeeming quality. I didn't have coffee as they didn't offer decaf & my husband's & in-laws' coffees were not warm enough (cups are thick pottery & should be warmed up with hot water before serving). I think the whole concept needs to be revisited. A pastry counter seems more of a win.

We had a delicious oat latte & almond croissant! Barista was very friendly & made us space during a busy time so we could sit down & eat. We got there around 10am on a weekday & they were already sold out of their famous pastries but it was still a nice experience.

The ambiance of the cafe is nice. The drinks & pastries were finely crafted.

There were not as many options for food as expected.

So yummy. Excellent oat milk latte & cappuccino. Can't really tell you what the pastries were but they were amazing. Seasonal strawberry brioche thing (the BEST) & some raspberry tart. Staff is so friendly & knowledgeable.

Unimpressed. They have a single sample of each over priced pastry they sell. Felt very bare bones. Drove 15 min based on their reviews & then found a way better deal for six pastries at the super market. Not paying $7 for a small cinnamon roll
