Crema's Take

Highly Likely feels like the kind of place where thoughtful design meets genuine hospitality, with a beautiful back patio that's equally suited for a lazy Sunday breakfast or a convivial dinner with friends. Beyond solid traditional coffee, they're playing creatively with both drinks and food—think interesting takes on classics rather than tired cafe fare—and they've made the smart choice to ban laptops after 5pm, protecting the space as a place for real connection rather than endless screen time. The whole experience, from the inviting aesthetic down to the attentive staff who actually know their menu, suggests they're thinking carefully about what a neighborhood gathering spot should be.

Lovely well designed restaurant with good customer service & a good size patio in the back. Shared a breakfast burrito with my love which was well portioned & delicious (bacon, eggs & fries) with a spicey creamy sauce. Got myself a hot cocoa which was brought out later yet had a cute leaf design to it. Will definitely return & is recommended!

Most interesting cafe on the street. Fun food and drinks. Service was friendly, happy to recommend favorites. Our waitress didn’t falter even when I realized, too late, laptops are banned after 5pm, and visibly wilted. FYI, no laptops after 5pm. Lol. Wish I knew that before walking in and ordering two drinks and a snack at 4:30pm. I figured it out when I went to sign up for the WiFi, which says “no laptops after 5”. I looked at the two people with open laptops at the bar. Looked at the WiFi. Bruh. You know what, it’s on me for not skimming the Google reviews. And the service was really great. So was the $10 fried artichoke snack with aioli. The matcha latte was okay. The pour for the chamomile mint tea was adorable and burnt my fingers. I was lucky enough to snag street parking immediately outside the door. There’s not much tho, you might need to drive around for a bit. After 5pm the lights dim and the place turns into a restaurant. There was a line immediately, so dinner food must be good.

My girl and I walked from my apartment on a Sunday morning to Highly Likely. We really liked this place. Environment was inviting and the food was excellent and great prices. My girl had eggs and avocado and I had the breakfast burrito 🌯. The burrito had spice and a creamy sauce inside Plus bacon, very tasty and filling. My only complaint was the coffee took too long to arrive at the table. Our waiter was cool and informative and told us about the dinner service. We checked out the back patio which had a bar too. We'll definitely be back for dinner.

Accommodating for our gathering of 9 for dinner. Nighttime outdoor patio setting with spaced out seating and cozy accent lighting allowed for easy conversation. Our server Kaley was very kind and attentive. She answered our various questions about the menu and even brought by a blanket to see if we were warm and comfortable. Various food options for everyone’s preferences. We shared their celery and farro salad, harissa meatballs, beet dip, and Kaley even brought by small sharing bowls for their bean soup. The bean soup had a nice tangy and spicy flavor. For the individual meals, 3 of us got their fish, 2 of us got their mushroom entree, 2 of us got their burger, and my youngest kid got their chicken strips. All food with good size portions and tasty. My favorite was their branzino which had a well prepared thin and crispy skin along with a tender and moist flesh. Enjoyed a very pleasant 2 hours here with that was nicely paced. Thanks!

Such unique takes on classics done really well. The atmosphere is beautiful, everything smells amazing including the bathrooms. Super beautiful and clean aesthetic with a creative twist. And the pancake on the weekends? It’s literally a cake in a pan and it blew me away. They also have a coffee that is espresso, bitters and Mexican coke which my boyfriend got and the sip I tried was so good. The Mediterranean eggs are unreal and fresh and addictive to eat as well. Super unexpected and amazing dishes. Must try.
