My favorite and go to cafe in the area! Such a relaxing environment but can also be fun cause they have games!! Food proportions are a good amount for a tiny breakfast!

Almost 20$ for a breakfast sandwich without any sides should be a crime. Food is good though and it does have a nice little coffee shop vibe. The figgy piggy is really good.

If you enjoy espresso based coffees- I highly recommend Simply Bold Cafe. The espresso is smooth, with no bitterness. Highly recommend the All American for breakfast. It’s quaint and has a friendly staff with a small town vibe.

Simply Bold Cafe is fantastic! The ladies that make and serve the coffee are so pleasant and they write upbeat positive notes in your coffee cup! Best place to go with your bestie!!

Great coffee and food, gf options a plus, love their cookie syrup when they have it - but all at the expense of seeing the name of Jesus surrounded by such strong vulgarity. It's really odd and sad to see and I can't understand why anyone in this world needs to have a coffee mug or hat with the f word on it - I feel like it helps nothing and no one. I love supporting local businesses and care about the kind people who work here, but as the amount of vulgar words placed around the space increase, I might have to decrease. I hope they can do better.

The Smashmouth…A loss for words. Wow. This was the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. Iced latte amazing too. I simply can’t have a bad day now because of this place. Simply bold, thank you…

Top tier coffee shop. The lounge was excellent. I needed a break from work, and this was the right place to go.

Cute café! Haven't been there in at least a year because they refused to give me a cup of water. After buying 2 sandwiches, 2 sides, and 2 hot drinks, we were told that they couldn't give us a cup of water. Very odd policy. If I'm going to buy a bottle of water, I'll do so elsewhere or wait until I get home. Otherwise, the food was decent and the environment was nice.

The atmosphere was the best part. The coffee is good and you can ask for things that are not specifically listed (such as a cortado). The food was good but slightly pricey for the amount it costs and the drinks can be expensive but it depends on what you get.

Another delightful experience at this cozy cafe with unique menu and seating options in various rooms. Enjoyed another delicious creamy hot chai latte and “The Goat” breakfast sandwich. Fun people-watching from indoors and from outdoor seating in warmer weather. Not clearly accessible location; several large steps to main floor.

We enjoyed this little coffee shop and could see hanging out here if we lived nearby. It's too bad it's so small, but the brand is spot on. Maybe Bold Realty can find a way to get Simply Bold Cafe a bit more room. Really nice people working here.

The food was a bit blend for my liking. But in overall it was a beautiful setting and the staff super friendly.

We’ve been visiting this spot for 2+ years now! They have really great coffee, especially any and all lattes. Fun seasonal menus, and we love their breakfast items! Everything has always been delicious, and the staff is always so kind and friendly.

I have enjoyed everything I’ve eaten at Simply Bold, whether it was a muffin, avocado toast or a sandwich on a brioche roll. All have been delicious. The coffee is great too. The employees are pleasant and helpful. I also like the fact that there are unique gift items for sale in the shop. Overall, a pleasant place to stop for a bite to eat.
