This cafe was very cute! I was the first one to try their new summer time cocktail no alcohol and it was amazing! You can choose from many different flavors. I will say they give you quite a bit of food so be prepared. I got the eggs Benedict and it was perfect. I definitely recommend this place.

Great cafe. They are happy, make great food and just a great vibe. He accommodated my gluten issue and adapted the vegetarian burrito for me and it was delicious. My husband had the corned beef hash and it is excellent. Highly recommended.

First time we tried Karens Little Cafe for breakfast, and we loved it! Our hash browns came out exactly as ordered crispy, and the corned beef eggs Benedict was delicious. Service was great too!
