This little cafe in NOPA is adorable! They have breakfast items (bagels, breakfast taco, avocado toast, fresh smoothies, coffee of all kinds) and lunch items too. Food is relatively simple but tasty. The pepper jack cheese is on the spicier side. Portions are decent. Staff is very friendly and there are a lot of regular customers who seem to come by on foot on a regular basis. But honestly the seasonal decorations are worth a visit - especially Halloween & Christmas!!! Every nook and cranny is filled with intricate dioramas and moving parts.

A big big fan of this place. It is a little bit unusual with a hippy vibe, the food and coffee are great! A few vegan options too! My chai was fantastic, no usual excessive sugar you may get at other cafes, instead it had a herbal flavour and was rich and gingery. Vegan banana bread and a vegan vege wrap! What a great find for a vegan. Service was polite, friendly and speedy. Bathroom and water available at ease. Lots of puppy snacks for free too for the customers which is nice. And while you are waiting for your food there are board games and little nick-nacks to look at around the place. Parking is limited, although mostly free on the street. A great spot for a lunch break. Recommend!

Just needed a quick breakfast, got a blueberry scone and a vanilla lavender latte. The latte didn’t end up being my thing but it was made very well. The scone tasted incredible and may have Been the best I’ve had. The vibes in here were also amazing!

Always love coming to Karma Cafe for lunch while I wait for my next class. Very friendly people and always have conversations with their customers! Have yet to try more items on the menu, but I love the chicken pesto panini! Even though it might be pricey it is extremely good :) Chicken pesto panini and Very Berry smoothie are about $18-$19

Eclectic interior design and the menu that anyone can find something to have! It’s a fun place to stop by. Per my personal taste, the coffee drinks are on the sweeter side.

I love trying creative latte flavors, and ordered one a while ago that was blueberry flavored. It was the perfect amount of sweetness. I also love the vibes here, and the wall dedicated to neighborhood doggos.

Friends I’ve never reviewed on a public platform that I can remember so please know that this real. This cafe is a human centered, heart opening, loving place. Will recommend for the rest of my days. Dog friendly to the point of doggos are sacred there: water bowl, treats, and photos all over the walls. Go check it out and feel the warm hug that this place is ❤️

Nice corner cafe with a few vegan selections and interesting mix of lattes. Would get more stars if extra was not charged for plant-based milks.

I have no idea how this place get such good reviews on Google Maps–either this place deteriorated during Covid or previous reviewers are locals who simply stick with their little corner café and have not had something actually good. I stopped by one day and had a small, overpriced breakfast sandwich (paid $11+), muffins were over baked but the egg tasted undercooked. And by "greens" they actually mean...arugula. Counter service felt pretty transactional and the entire cafe interior looks like a hoarder's treasure trunk. Obviously I'm not coming back.

Was really excited to try this coffee shop since it is the closest to my new home! The outside look of the cafe is very inviting, with colorful walls and bubbles flying everywhere! The inside was just as whimsical and the staff was very nice. I got a americano with oatmilk and a breakfast bagel sandwich. The coffee was .... wow way better than expected and honestly the best I have tried in the area so far. The reason I gave this a three star, is because both the breakfast sandwich bagel egg sausage and greens and the sandwich my boyfriend got the egg muffin sausage was one of the worst sandwiches I have ever had. The egg yokes were so dry and pasty the avocado’s were not fresh and there was no cheese (it needed it) there was arugula on the bagel and it did not match well with the flavors. The English muffin breakfast sandwich was horrible in all the same ways but the muffin itself was greasy and had a texture of a cheese puff. Overall, I will be coming back for the coffee so good!

The coffee was fine. Ham and cheese croissant was days old and chewy. I ate it cause I was too hungry not too. Then I got a cherry danish, it was days old. That I brought back and got a slice of coconut/mangoe bread. That too was old to the point of hard. Bad Karma
