We’re a little café on the corner in Essex, serving seriously good food without taking ourselves too seriously.

Start your day with locally roasted coffee, organic tea, scratch-made pastries and breakfast, then stick around for sandwiches, seasonal salads, soups and hearty prepared meals to take home. Our bakery keeps the case stocked with croissants, muffins, scones, cakes, cheesecakes and plenty of gluten-free treats that—you guessed it—you’d never know were gluten-free.

Everything we do is rooted in good ingredients, a little creativity and the kind of food you actually want to eat – our tagline is modern nostalgia.

Eat like a local. Stay curious. Be a Wicked Googan.

Goo-gan (NOUN)

A novice fisherman; one who seeks to gain experience through trial with some snafus along the way.

Synonyms: amateur, novice… wannabe professional? Gotta start somewhere!
