Patika

"Along with great coffee and baked goods, the South Lamar neighborhood cafe offers breakfast and lunch daily, all made to order from the food truck out back. Start the day with a shakshuka toast (served on weekends) or the breakfast sandwich with tomato jam and bacon, or stop in mid-day for the grilled cheese. Brunch service sees compelling additions like biscuits and gravy and a migas omelet. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury

"At the coffee shop and café Patika on South Lamar,  you can be as healthy as you want to be, whether that means a grilled cheese loaded with bacon, or a quinoa bowl topped with a poached egg, red-pepper hummus, and kale. None of it feels like an afterthought, as is often the case at coffee shops that proudly display a case of lukewarm breakfast tacos. It’s not open for dinner, but there’s still beer and wine—available by the glass or bottle—in case you want to turn that Tuesday lunch into a Tuesday afternoon hang.  " - adele hazan, nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
