Review by Simone Wilderman

September 15, 2024

I've been a regular at John Street Cafe, and it always feels like a cozy retreat. 🌞 Their marinated chicken omelet is a game-changer, bursting with flavor thanks to the Italian sausage and cream cheese. The lemon-ricotta pancakes are a must-try, especially with the blueberries!

I love the dog-friendly outdoor seating - perfect for sunny mornings. On busy days, service may slow down a bit, but the friendly staff makes up for it. Don't forget to check the specials board for delightful surprises! Can't wait to return for more deliciousness... 🥞🥓
