No televisions. Soft music. Room for conversation.
Soup of the day and the pastry case land on Instagram each morning.
The café
Built on the European model: savory and sweet, in a small-plate format, with coffee worth sitting down for.
Food is prepared in-house each day — breakfast sandwiches, panini, salads, soups, quiche, and pastry. Espresso is pulled on beans from Mascara Bros, the family roaster next door to this story.

Small-batch beans, roasted for this bar.
Mike, Matt, and Tim roast single-origin coffee in small batches — family work, started in 2022 from a 1950s photograph of three brothers and a truck. We pull it as espresso, drip, and the drinks of the month.
The room
Step back from the busy world.
No screens competing for the table. Soft background music, pastry in the case, and enough quiet for a conversation or a book. Featured on Good Day Dayton — still, on purpose, a neighborhood café.
