Keep coming back for great breakfasts and lunches with dependably good coffee and service. Somehow always end up taking home some of the pastries as well... Family friendly with a nice kids menu (see photo), high chairs available, toys and books inside and a reliable stream of dogs and puppies outside. Also good for buying bags of quality coffee beans in emergency situations.

The Letter Q is a great place for breakfast. They serve nice coffee, and the staff is really friendly. I enjoyed the bacon and egg roll; it was tasty and satisfying. I also tried the granola bowl, which was nice. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to kick off your day with good food and a welcoming vibe!
