We strive to use the "freshest" and mostly "locally grown or purchased" ingredients we can find. Our "Free Range"/"Cage Free" Eggs come from Farmer's Hen House of Kalona. The organic whole and 2% milk we use is from Kalona Organics. The coffee we brew is from fair trade beans roasted by Capanna's of North Liberty.

Our baked items are made from scratch. The Soft Pretzels are a signature item for us and are baked fresh each day. The Cinnamon Rolls are also a specialty item and are absolutely delicious. We have amazing muffins with some of the best tasting offerings this side of heaven . Chocolate chip cookies, are also available. Ask us to heat either of the baked items to give it a "fresh out of the oven" softness.
