A very clean atmosphere for inside dining. The food was delicious, and the staff was friendly to the customers as well as attentive to their orders and requests. Thank you for a nice dining experience.

The person who took our order was amazing. The boba tea ( I got passion fruit) was good but I wish there was more boba pearls. The sandwiches are giant and tasty. Coffee was good, and so was the eggs and ham. I do wish there was more gluten free options, as I come from a family with a history of gluten intolerances. The cafe in itself was very cozy but there was only 2 restrooms that were always full. I guess the bathrooms being full isn’t their fault, though.

This is a quaint little spot. With good food and great service. Space is a bit small for the number of customers that frequent. But in my mind that says it’s a good restaurant.

I loved this cute cafe! It had a great atmosphere, I felt like I was in a cozy lodge on a chilly day. The food was great and reasonably priced. Coffee was spot on (we are pretty picky). Got the salmon eggs benedict special with and the veggie paul revere for the baby with the house made english muffin. Good options for vegetarians and coffee lovers and plenty of space to comfortably sit with the baby. We will be back for weekend breakfast and maybe bubble teas next time.

This is a self-service coffee shop. Customers place orders via a touchscreen kiosk, get their order number, get their food, coffee (or tea, or bubble tea), connect to WiFi and enjoy not having to interact with strangers. Food is simple but good. There’s definitely a great variety of items. Bottom line - I wanted a place to grab a quick breakfast and do some work, and this place was perfect!

Love Norby's. Very cute and cozy coffee shop with a nice patio for outdoor seating. My son loves their Belgian waffles and I like their bagel sandwiches.

The perfect spot for Mother's Day weekend brunch. The Eggs Benedict is my personal favorite. Also love their coffee, taro, and chai lattes....This is my go -to spot during the week too for studying in this wonderful atmosphere.
