This little place is a gem with fantastic coffee and the best brownie I've ever had! The owner is always friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is great. So nice to have a coffee and gourmet treat here.

Honestly didn't know what to expect from Isabella's waffles, but they were delicious! Perfectly cooked with lovely fresh fruit, and beautifully presented. Their drinks are also very good, high quality for a decent price, not to mention the lovely chocolates!

Great little place but avoid the place on Saturdays. 1 person on staff who is the chief cook and bottle washer. Sandwiches and coffee excellent but the lone staff member had to cook and take care of the cash as well. Service extremely slow of course. 2 groups of about 6 people each had to be very patient for their orders. To compensate for the wait, we were given a delicious sample of their homemade chocolate treats. Oh by the way, don't try calling this restaurant - they don't answer EVER. Seems if you want a "live" person you have to email them via their website. Not exactly "best business practice". Strange.

I stop in here for latte before class every now and then. It's always busy, but the service is quick and the baristas are friendly. They make a great brownie too! I also love that they sell cliff bars. Perfect for when I have a long day and don't want to spend too much money on grabbing lunch downtown.
