Great atmosphere and menu options, prices are too high, had to wait a fair amount of time for my food as I got it to go. Got to my destination to eat and wasn't given utensils (I ordered oatmeal and a sandwich). Food was "ok". Staff were pleasant.

Love the coffee and food. I wish the gluten free baked goods weren't on the bottom rack, under all the other baked goods. It makes it not safe if have Celiac.

Had the curry egg salad sandwich. Good flavor, but wish there was more curry in it. Lots of vegan and GF options. Slightly overpriced. Dining room was poorly lit and tables needed a wipe down.

This place might be ok but our experience was not great. No signs to let you know to order at the counter then find a seat. So when we did finally figure it out a large family came in and took the last of the food we wanted. I was not crazy about the substitution. Limited menu. Clearly a better place for locals and not tourists. Will not go again.

pleasant surprise. Visited Winona for a day and stopped here to see the art. Food was good, art was awesome. Crisp photo like pictures by a local artist Anne Dermark or something. worth seeing.

I'm happy that we just happened to be here on Thursday as it's the only night they do dinner, I'm told. I had a really good dish of Indian meatballs. Recommended.
