Alina’s Cafe

"Formerly Anchor Cafe, which was formerly Marine View Espresso; I think it’s now Alina’s since Feb 2024 maybe? Ordered Avocado Toast, added two eggs over easy and bacon, with side of their hot sauce. My toast bread choice was wheat and seemed homemade/rustic? Lovdd that. Eggs were cooked perfectly. Always nice for taste and texture balance when a bitter green thing like sprouts or arugula is added to avocado toast. Bacon was quality and freshly fried up. Overall great avo toast experience. Oh and most importantly the espresso was good, too! My triple short soy capp was nice and I could tell the shots were pulled correctly. Foam could have been a little thicker but not bad. And I should add that the staff was friendly and attentive but not too attentive. I thought it was a coffee and pastry place but it seems to be a legit cafe with a bfast and lunch menu and tableside waitstaff. But it’s chill like a coffeeshop; I lingered for awhile on my laptop after I ate. HAPPY to have this place in the neighborhood, especially since this location has floundered with a couple other owners since the pandemic. Please try it so that it stays!"

"Great food! Beer on tap. We had the Mushroom Burger and the Hot Ham & Swiss breakfast sandwich. Both were excellent. Scratch made bread and pastries. The whole menu looks great. They close at 3pm but the owner said they will have later hours in the future."

"Very excited about this new spot. Tons of options to chose from. The service was great and the food delicious. Came here with some friends and agreed we have to come back!"

"The food was good. I had the tuna sandwich and my only complaint is I wish the bread was toasted. Service was excellent and I will be back for sure."
