Amazing pastries , better than anything I've had in NYC. Maple biscuit and cinnamon bun out of this world, so fluffy and tasty!!

Emily

The jalapeño cheddar bread is so good I sometimes consider hiding it from my family.

Anita

I love August First but they do NOT have Wifi - actually a good thing!. Have breakfast - the cheddar/chipotle roll, or lunch - e.g. a soup/salad combo, always fresh- or a snack - but not online.

Kaitlin

Get the Forester for a delicious and interesting mix of flavors. Also seems like you can’t go wrong with any pastry .

Cole T

Rockstar sandwiches , delightful coffee and great atmosphere. A+

Coffee bar is so good I keep forgetting to take a picture before I bite into it.

Maple glazed biscuit is next level. Great selection of breads to take home.

We were here for a pre wedding night social. Great venue.

Keep an ear out for the bread delivery via bike . If you're lucky you can get some fresh bread delivered to your house!

I appreciate they were able to make a coffee drink for me special, one that wasn’t on the posted menu.

Don't bother trying to get a sandwich to go at 10:50 a.m. The emo counter chick won't give you one until 11:00.
