Good expansive but cozy cafe with a nice selection of tasty breakfast offerings that come out quickly. It's a big space but also very warm and friendly. Breakfast was busy but they handled the crowd well.

Love Tryst, and come here to work all the time! Great atmosphere, great food, great servers and friendly staff. However, the bathrooms are always disgusting and freezing cold. I hope this can be addressed more regularly.
