Crema's Take

Firefly's breakfast game is genuinely impressive—the bagels are legitimately great, and their burritos are oversized and satisfying—but expect a line during peak hours since this spot near the wharf gets slammed with both tourists and locals. The coffee is solid and the staff is friendly, though it's really the food that makes people come back, so if you're stopping by for just a quick espresso, you might find the wait annoying relative to the drink quality.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Amazing bagels and burritos! The breakfast burritos are massive and delicious, and the bagels were so chewy and fluffy. Their coffee was also great, my iced oat milk latte was scrumptious. Also their chai was very good, super spicy. The inside is cute but there aren't too many…
