Locally owned. I love going for vegetable samosas & raita for a quick snack, or papadum with their chutneys. Their chai is delicious & well worth stopping on any day!

One of our most popular local coffee & sandwich shops. The drive-in is usually several cars long (silly I know) but it's one of the reasons people love it. I like their breakfasts & coffee best.
