Long mornings, working lunches, and the kind of visit that turns into two hours. Bring someone you actually want to talk to — the space rewards it.
What regulars say.
We're new to Ara and was looking for a brunch spot near us when we decided to check out Swtstrt. What a gem! My kids and I went on a weekday (no school that day) and were delighted by the ambiance of the cafe. It has this artsy, warm vibe, enhanced by their little library nook and a record player with a variety of records to select from. But what's most important to us was the delicious food! We ordered a few things on the menu that were super yummy. I can't remember the actual names; scrambled eggs on sourdough, the French, pancakes, and also the carbonara pasta. They were all delish. The latte with oat milk was also fantastic. We visited another time and ordered the same dishes and tried the omelette, and that was good too! We met the family that runs the cafe and they're absolutely lovely folks. We love supporting local businesses, and will happily come back again and again to try the other items on the menu and their cakes and desserts. Highly recommend if you're in the neighborhood.
Randomly stumbled upon this gem on a Sunday afternoon, we were definitely pleasantly surprised. Ordered the chicken chop, steak sandwich & pancakes and they all tasted really good. Food was served pretty fast too, we will definitely be back. P.s I tried their Banana Pudding Matcha Latte and it was heavenly, a really nice combination that I never expected.
Our first time to this cafe after reading so much good comments in Google review. It's managed by family members and we just love the vibes in this cafe - nice music s and the lighting are just comfortable. We ordered "The Turkish" breakfast and Caffe Latte to wash it down our throat. Food is good same goes with the latte. The only thing that I wish is, they open this cafe till 9pm for dinner during weekend. Keep up cooking good food for us. Shall visit this place soon to try their varieties of food. Note: The family members here are so friendly.
