"I haven't been here in several years and this place has changed the menu since then. They used to serve crepes, but it seems like that is no longer on the menu. I miss the crepes they used to serve, but this place still seems like an excellent local coffee shop with sandwiches.Service: I was greeted promptly as soon as I walked in even though the worker was busy making a drink. They take your name when you order at the counter in the middle of the cafe, and they call out your name when your individual items are ready to pick up from the counter. They do not serve dine-in orders within 30 minutes of closing. There are tables on either end of the cafe, but not much, so don't expect a seat during peak times.Coffee: Served as is, the hot latte was foamy and velvety without any bitterness. Even though my order was to go, I was surprised to still see latte art when I took the lid off.Food: I ordered the Otom sandwich, which includes egg, bacon, cheddar, lettuce, tomato spicy aioli, on your choice of bread. I chose to have on an everything bagel, which had a perfectly substantial amount of chewiness. The egg was overcooked and dry, but the rest of the ingredients, like the tomato and the aioli, covered up the dryness. The spicy aioli is mild but does add a nice small kick to the flavors. It is a fairly greasy and messy sandwich thanks to the bacon and aioli, so be sure to have a couple of napkins on hand. Overall, it was delicious."

Awesome locally owned coffee shop. Great atmosphere with reasonably priced food and drinks. Kid-friendliness: The staff was so friendly with our four year old son. Definitely felt like he was welcome to be there.

Brighton’s best neighborhood cafe has the GOAT of bagel sandwiches. The Otom is the it factor at Cafenation for me-I’ve gone to countless other places and nothing seems to compare. Their coffee and pastries are also delicious. The employees are very kind and friendly.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this cozy coffee place. Relaxing soundtrack, a few tables, chairs, and sofa where people do some work. The roast of the coffee settled very well with my stomach. The barista in the morning was super likeable. I like that they use mugs instead of disposable cups for some orders. Very limited food options, mostly a few muffins.
