My Favorite Things

The service was terrible. I waited so long for my iced coffee. When I got it, the ice was all melted. My omelette was greasy. The server never asked how anything was. The food took forever to come out. The bagel and lox was the only great thing at our table.

So good! I got the monte Cristo and it was amazing, also go ahead and get some cheese grits because they are the
. Very cool atmosphere and great customer service and shopping!

This is one of the must visit, hidden treasures of Pensacola, especially for breakfast or brunch. Most meal options are based off of a bagel of your choice and each choice is just as delicious as the last. Trust me, order something with egg and cheese in it or if not, the lox is where it’s at. The coffee is also excellent. The name is based off of the gift shop containing lots of trinkets or furniture type pieces that one might buy and think to be their «favorite thing» in said room. Dog friendly if you plan to eat outside in the large patio area.

This is a little coffee shop I discovered by chance last summer that couldn’t be more appropriately named. I stop in when I’m craving my favorite — a perfect dirty chai latte. The shop itself is a small exploration of gifts, jewelry, and candy to choose from. Their staff has always been down to earth, welcoming… and it is wonderful to see the expansions (a small café style restaurant I’ve yet to try) and growing customer base each time I’m there.

Very special design, friendly staff and most important very good coffee and I just love the lox bagel!

My wife and I loved our relaxed breakfast in the outdoor patio area. The setting is lovely. The store inside had lots of fun things to look at. Our breakfast was tasty and the service was the right mix of attentive and not rushed.

Finally stopped in here after years of wanting to. The staff was all courteous and cheerful. I absolutely loved the atmosphere and décor here. Relaxing and trendy. The coffee drinks were decent and tasty, and I was impressed with how extensive the drink and food menu were. The prices are reasonable and the food is good. Great little place to catch up with friends or treat yourself to a solo coffee.

Awesome little breakfast lunch spot! Highly recommend! They have carafes of mimosas for 9 bucks and the breakfast was awesome! Finally another good breakfast spot!

Stopped in here on a recent trip to Pensacola and absolutely loved it! They have several different blends of coffee. I tried several and found all of them to be spectacular. Based on other Unilocal reviews, I tried a bagel with homemade honey almond cream cheese. It was phenomenal. Best bagel I’ve had in a long time! I also tried their «Pensacola’s best gumbo» and it is equally impressive.
Came I had to come back for a return visit and was equally impressed! This is going to be a regular stop anytime I visit Pensacola!

Awesome place. Went there for breakfast on Saturday around 10 am. Thankfully it wasn’t packed. The restaurant is very cool and also a store. It has a rustic, eclectic feel to it, decorated with what nots and mismatched furniture. It’s a seat yourself policy. We were greeted immediately after we sat down. Silverware served in metal tin with napkins. I got the traditional breakfast — bagel with cream cheese, eggs, meat, potatoes vs grits. It was so good. I got scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, blueberry bagel with honey almond cream cheese. I also ordered a side of grits. Everything was really good. The bagel was great, house made cream cheese. The only thing about the food, you have to add salt to the food, no big deal. Hubby got the Monte Cristo — bagel with boars head ham and honey, cheese and covered in powdered sugar, and preserves. He also got the coffee and latte. Both were strong but good. The server was very attentive and always checked on us. Once we got the check we had to walk through the store to get to the check out counter. The store was really cool, had a bunch of cool things to buy. The counter had all types of coffee choices and candy. They also had cookies, honey, olive oil and other things to buy. The hubby got the raw frosted honey which was awesome and would taste great over ice cream. Would definitely return to try other things. It has cool pottery littering the walk way. They have outside seating too.

Stop in for gourmet candies and trinkets in the gift shop. Try the pot roast wrap. I haven’t had the Italian sodas there, yet. That’s next! ;)

Fantastic food, nice staff, love décor and «homie» feel… i will def go back when in town.

I had the pastrami sandwich and it was outstanding ! Omar is a great host and knows the food very well.

On Sunday’s the parking lot is usually filled up but if you’re lucky enough to find a parking spot you’ll be able to enjoy a frappuccino in the cute café that also serves sweet treats! While waiting for your food you can roam around the opposite side of the building which sells gifts and random nik-​naks.
The food portion is just enough for you to feel satisfied. The atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant is homey. The servers are really friendly. My only complaint is that they definitely should reconsider «sit wherever.» Only because they either forget about you or the table is already taken.

The Good:
I loved the vibe. It was very cute, cozy and eclectic. Seating is pretty minimal inside and there was a lovely patio. The prices were also fantastic. Each meal was under $ 10 and we split a carafe of strong mimosas for $ 9 total! The menu was also really large for such a small establishment.
The Not-​So-​Good:
I found my food kind of bland and dry. Which was surprising because this place was rated so highly! I got the Monte Cristo on Asiago, added all the jam, and it still wasn’t moist/​flavorful enough. I ordered grits and had to put those on my sandwich to eat it. I almost feel like it should come with syrup or something. My boyfriend had the breakfast burrito, which was pretty good, but could use more meat.
We both left satisfied, and had a good experience, but I wouldn’t rank this as one of the best brunches I’ve ever had.

Almost gave them 3 stars, but the food was great. We went for breakfast a little after 10am, and had a waffle, an omelette and tons of sides (cheese grits, breakfast potatoes, etc.). The service was ok; there seemed to be only one server for the dining area, but he was making an effort. Portions were a little small, but we left satisfied.
When we entered we were told by the one server to «sit anywhere,» as soon as we started to sit down we were informed the table we had chosen was reserved. It seemed a little rude, but I hadn’t had any coffee yet either. We also watched this same scenario repeat for the next three tables that entered (clearly the booths by the windows are popular).
I ordered brewed coffee once we sat down, and it was pretty good, but when I asked for a refill I was given flavored coffee (not a huge deal, but I personally don’t like flavored coffee).

The food was great, the coffee was delicious, and the store was super cool — featuring a coffee bar, candy shop, and a gift shop.

This place is great! We went for breakfast and had bagel French toast and a side of scrambled eggs which were very good.
The carafe of mimosas was very tasty. And the Bloody Mary with sake was amazing. Definitely within my top 3 best that I’ve had!
We had our dog with us outside on the patio and the waiter brought him a water bowl. The staff was so nice and attentive.
Got an iced latte and a couple of chocolate treats to go and both were delicious. The latte was not burnt, very yummy.
We’re visiting from Houston. And when we come back, we’ll come back here!

I arrived on a quiet, sunny Friday morning, around 5 till 11. The sign said to seat yourself, so I sat outside in the covered patio area where several other diners were already having breakfast.
About 5 minutes after arrival, a staffer cleared another table and greeted me. Ten minutes after that, I still had no menu or server, so I left (the 15-​Minute Rule).
Too bad: I read good things about this place. But no reason to ignore diners when the restaurant isn’t jammed.

A place I would be a regular at if I lived close. Great French press and breakfast menu. The atmosphere and staff were incredible.
I would drive out of my way to come here again!
