This Capitol Hill gem feels like a step back into a classic European tavern. There is a lovely mix of indie spirit and very warm hospitality here. You will find people reading books or typing on laptops at the long wooden tables. The homemade biscuit and eggs plate serves as a very hearty way to start the day. If you want something sweet, try the brioche French toast topped with creamy mascarpone cheese. For a savory lunch, the porchetta sandwich with garlic aioli is a massive crowd pleaser. Their avocado toast remains a staple for many locals who want a fresh and simple breakfast.  They focus on simple food and local ingredients to keep the menu feeling very fresh. The atmosphere stays lively from the early coffee hours until the late-night drink service. It is a solid choice for a casual meal in a very cool building.
