I've had breakfast here on a recent Friday and a Saturday. It had a very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere both times.
The staff is great. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches are top-notch.

Soups are good. Prices are very high. Food does not warrant the price

There was only one register open and no kiosk ordering options so I had to wait to order. My order took maybe 10-15 minutes once I placed it but it came out good.

This place blows. Customer service is ridiculous. Why do I show up 10 mins after ordering and still have to wait another 10 mins for my food to be ready? It's an egg sandwhich and a bagel!? And there's no one in line. Truly pathetic this is.
