Located a little out of town at an organic farm. Excellent breakfasts but they serve a full menu. Get the donuts. Their baguettes are the best! Buy one before they run out. Call ahead to check their hours.

The co-op isn't far from our place. We often grab a meal there. They always have soup, a large salad bar, meat, fish, rice. You can also get eggs or oatmeal for breakfast. The coffee is excellent, but bring a sweater. It's never very warm.

I love this place, mostly because I'm a sucker for beautiful architecture. Small and lovely. My favorite: the chai tea. Also they have the best hot chocolate in town.
