High quality, made with care. The olive& rosemary bread is so good. Tuna melt stuffed with Tuna. Tastes great. Short rib panini is super tasty, melt in your mouth meat. Croissant with jam filling. The croissant itself had a delicate sweetness and a hint of fruity flavor. The jam inside was delish, not overly sweet, tasted housemade. They clearly put a lot of work into their food and it pays off. Cute interior.

We had a great experience. It was extremely busy. The ordering was on top of the rush. My harvest salad was on point. The buffalo chicken flatbread was to die for. She wanted more. Caesar salad and sandwich were well priced. The ginger and molasses cookies were so soft and gooey. We were impressed with the serve and they handled the rush of orders like pros.

got the daily pressed sandwich, the turkey pesto. absolutely devious!!! the pesto was incredibly rich, the bread had a wonderful texture, and it was all perfectly buttered. macaroni salad wasn't bad either, the greek lemon rice soup was thick and warming. definitely a great palette cleanser for after the sandwich. first time trying this place but it definitely won't be the last!!!

My favorite sandwiches in Lowell! Everything is always so fresh and delicious. I’ve ordered from here probably 20+ times and it’s never been bad not once. They bake the bread fresh in house and you can tell! The baked goods are also amazing, they make the best pecan bar I’ve ever had. Just a 10/10 spot all around

The Turkey & Avocado Panini is by far one of the BEST sandwiches I have ever had!!! The bread had a slight sweetness from the raisins that added a whole other dimension to the sandwich. The "shot" of mac n' cheese was such a great surprise! Ordered through Door Dash. Delivery was quick.
