Peregrine Cafe

Crema's Take
“This charming Hyatt parking lot cafe is run by a passionate chef who's become a neighborhood fixture, serving up irresistible beignets and churros alongside solid cafe classics like breakfast sandwiches and pitas. The real magic is in the experience—locals and families settle into the outdoor seating to watch trains pass by, and the chef's genuine warmth makes everyone feel welcomed, whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or lingering over fresh pastries. It's the kind of place where affordable, soulful food and real human connection turn a casual meal into something memorable.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

The beignets were amazing! The egg sami was also great. Friendly service, affordable!!!, and tasty.
Friendly local chef cooking up soulful cafe classics from the Hyatt parking lot. My kid loves eating a delicious beignet while watching the trains roll by across the way. Look for the colorful graffiti food truck and say hi to Jacob when you go!
