Hail Fellow Well Met is a creative name for a wonderfully unique project by Onyx Coffee Lab.
What to expect: I'd be remiss if I didn't say this first: This is such a beautiful space.
- The soft greens, natural wooden elements, hanging greenery and high ceilings make the inside feel so airy and light.
- And the floor-to-ceiling greenery, string lights, bar and seating make the outdoor patio hard not to notice from the street.

The menu: Lots of twists on standard brunch and café-style foods, even though brunch officially is only Saturday and Sunday.
- I had the chilaquiles (heritage eggs, black beans, salsa, jalapeños, sour cream, avocados and tortilla). It's a delicious — and not-too-spicy — option.
- Bonus: I also sampled the samcake (soufflé cake, orange, pecan, sour cream, maple, pistachio). It's like a gourmet chef was told to make a pancake, scoffed and gave us this.


🍷 For the nighttime crowd: Friday and Saturday nights are all about the bar out on the patio.
1 cool thing: In case a coffee shop, restaurant and bar weren't enough for you, Hail Fellow Well Met also has a market where you can buy bottled wines, treats like macaroons and basics like milk, eggs, bread and cheese.
