Food was very good. As were the dulcet tones of the lunch-time performers. The prices were too high. My simple restaurant rule of thumb, is that if you have to collect a key to go to the toilet, you shouldn’t be paying $15 for an over the counter salad.

Good busy place to have a morning snack. There maybe a long ordering line on weekends. Large communal tables and a patio. Shares space with a wine tasting bar. Baked goods are tasty and interesting. Coffee and soft drinks. Street parking.

Fabulous Cubano and sundried tomato sandwiches. Can’t wait to go back.

Cozy relaxed spot with good coffee. (5/5 green stars) Plenty of indoor and outdoor shady seating and decent WiFi make this a good place to work. Nice music playing, from Beach House to Grizzly Bear. Great coffee – no pour-overs, but their drip coffee tasted fresh. It’s from the Dart Coffee Co. (new to me) – lightly roasted Peruvian beans. Decent value too – I had a coffee, bagel with cream cheese and tomato, and muffin for about $9. Coffee refills are free, so I had a blueberry scone ($4) to go with the second cup ;) I have mixed feelings about their pastries. They all look good, and while the bagel tasted good, the muffin and scone were bland and both were a touch overdone. The muffin was listed as grapefruit poppy seed, and while the texture was good, there was no grapefruit flavor that I could detect. It was a Monday – perhaps an off-day? Would recommend it for the coffee and ambiance, and I think the bakery side has potential – their baguette sandwiches look great. I’m also giving Helena Avenue Bakery 5/5 “green stars” for social and environmental impact, based on these reasons: • Their coffee, from Dart, is certified fair trade and organic. • They use organic flour for baking, sourced from Central Milling • They have ceramic cups and plates and metal utensils for eating in-house. • Items like sandwiches have just a simple paper wrap. • Even items that come in packaging (like house-made pickles) they have made fairly sustainable choices (cardboard and PET). • Cold drinks cups are compostable, although hot cups and lids are not. • Water is available in little glass jars. • The support some local charities and events such as bike to work day and Heal the Oceans.
