One of my favorite cafes to study at in town! It’s a cozy atmosphere with a bar as they do serve alcohol. They also have outdoor seating. They offer great snack plates and a few GF bread options (the pumpkin bread is my favorite). My bf has confirmed that the burritos and their lemon poppy bread are delicious. He also loves their drip coffee, I believe they offer 1 refills on that. The employees are always kind and friendly. I kick myself for how long it took me to check it out.

Went after being recommended by a friend and oh my gosh, so freaking good!! I got a pumpkin chai and it was literally heavenly. I also got gf avocado toast and it was so so good. I was mildly worried at first when I saw the toast as it looked too good to be gf, but I asked the waiter and they assured me it was gf and I ate it was absolutely no problems!! Will definitely be back and I highly recommend everyone try them out!! :)

As a local real estate agent, I love coming here for client meetings, brainstorm sessions, or just heads-down work time. The comfortable, slightly moody yet artsy vibe is a 10/10 for Old Town. Love Mugs Old Town!

Great establishment to grab a pastry and coffee. We came here for the coffee and it was just the right amount of espresso in my Americano. My daughter had a mocha blended coffee and chocolate chip cookie and did not complain. There is seating inside and outside and a place to park your bikes if you are riding around town. The staff was also friendly. It is in the Armstrong Hotel.

Fantastic place for breakfast, delicious coffee, friendly baristas, and the overall ambiance is inviting. This is a great place to hang out with your laptop and handle work emails or meet a friend for a drink.

Great food. Even a difficult to prepare and keep-together breakfast like a sausage bagel with egg is deliciously done here. The avocado toast is huge - and wonderful. The vibe among the wait-staff is really positive too. The music is nice and not too loud, so you can have a quiet conversation.
