I love the Brownstone Cafe. They have the best Tomato Basil Bisque that I’ve ever tasted. Their menu has a decent variety of soups, salads and sandwiches. The outdoor seating leads you to a charming courtyard with a small water feature in the center. A perfect way to spent a couple of hours.

I’ve been there when the service is quick and when it’s slow. Really, the ambiance is so laid back that feeling rushed does not add to the experience.

They also have take-out, which I will use when I don’t have the time to relax in the courtyard and they are pretty expedient about completing take-out orders.
