"It’s a short drive from the hub of downtown to up-and-coming Park Circle, but spots like this make it worthwhile. On a street with warehouses and old commercial lots that look unchanged since the 1950s, this café has that whole kitsch vintage thing going on, but presents in such an organic way that the word ‘hipster’ won’t even cross your mind. Tales of their Bloody Mary variations will precede the visit, and they are not hyperbolic. The ‘blonde’ version uses yellow tomatoes and is as light as a day at the beach, while the half and half merges with a more traditional recipe for a perfect mix. The brunch menu is small but perfectly formed. The star of the show is the Mexican Hash, which presents cactus-braised pork doused in a house-made jalapeno honey hot sauce. A self-serve coffee station is a godsend for caffeine enthusiasts." - Paul Oswell
