Mary's Market

Pro Tip: If you can carpool, do it. This place is nearly impossible when it comes to parking. People even double-park behind other customers or the residents whom live there.

This charming little eatery has been operating since 1922, though it's changed ownership since the original. It's a single business tucked away into the woods where the rest of the neighborhood is residential and the roads are narrow. I believe this used to be a resident in which the original owner converted the front house into a market and cafe, which is why it's so out of place.

This place is quite a hidden gem at the base of the mountains. I only found it because of Yelpers (yeah, go Yelp community!) when I was looking for a spot close to my girlfriend that morning to meet up for breakfast.

Mary's Market is adorable. It's kind of all over the place in terms of decor- it's a combination of kitschy, vintage-inspired, whimsical and totally eclectic. You feel welcome the moment you step into the cafe. The employees are nice, helpful and knowledgable about the food and menu.

The pictures speak for themselves. There are flowers upon flowers everywhere, mini fairy gardens and homegrown herbs, fruits and veggies on the property. The food is pretty good but the savory stuff is a little too salty for me (I'm not big on sodium). You order right when you walk in and pay there. Drinks are self-serve, nothing fancy- either bottled drinks or you get a mug where you go to the coffee station and DIY. There is table service for the rest of your meal. There is outdoor seating both at the front entrance as well as the back of the restaurant because there are not that many tables inside.

I hope to go again soon. It was a very pleasant first experience. I couldn't stop taking photos.

Food is delicious, locally grown and freshly made. Love the welcome feeling ????

Great food!!! I love the lox and bagel plate. They also do a really beautifully tasting Eggs Benedict. Brilliant!!!

Quaint and tasty! I got the Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado Tomato sandwich and it hit the spot! Great coffee too

Delicious food, friendly service, indoor and outdoor seating all set in a quaint little area.
Parking is extremely limited.
Recently I had the breakfast burrito and roasted potatoes. But I also highly recommend the Eggs Benedict. Enjoy!!
