What a great and unexpected find! A Wonderful atmosphere and kind staff. The food is absolutely delicious and unique in its own way. They provide a healthy meal with flavors at dance in your mouth. I would highly recommend this café.

Savory, and delicious food, bakery, and coffee bar. Soft, charismatic, heartfelt atmosphere, Great service. All around perfect place for a quick bite to eat, lunch date, or a small get together.

This is what I would call a fru-fru restaurant, meaning that it really caters more to women than men. However, they do have a burger and some other sandwiches that guys like and the rosted red pepper soup is amazing! If you need a quick lunch, this probably not the place you want to go. The food is very fresh and I believe is made to order. They do have some outside seating and the atmosphere overall is pretty neat. They have been in the Dothan area for quite a long time, but have changed locations and actually closed for a short period, but we are glad they are open again and we like this location. If you have some time, check them out!

I came here expecting lunch. What I got was fond memories and exactly what I didnt know I wanted.
The flavored lemonades are perfect, not too sweet or strong. The food was magical. The server (Bethany) was a pure delight. Not sure what magic/vodo they are patading as food but I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It seems there is something for everyone!

Let me start off by saying, I had the best most attentive waiter. Seriously, the best.

I used to eat there constantly when they were where KBC is now... The tomato bread is nowhere near as good as it used to be the chicken salad had no avocado flavor at all but the red pepper soup was spot on.

Amazing food and the best coffee in town! The staff is always so friendly and really go above and beyond for all customers!

My wife and I have been visiting since the early days downtown. We try to stop by when we are in town. Glad they are back in Dothan. Best roasted red pepper soup and awesome sandwiches and desserts.
