Crema's Take
“Flying Saucer is a cozy neighborhood brunch destination that wins over visitors with its genuinely inclusive menu, where vegan and meat-loving diners alike find something to celebrate—their quiche specials are particularly worth planning around. The welcoming, bustling atmosphere draws both laptop warriors and families who appreciate the full breakfast spread and pastries, though you'll want to arrive with cash in hand and patience for parking on the street.”
What to expect
