ALICI'S

Alici's is stepping up the game with a solid hygiene score and a menu that beckons with promise, but let's be real—it's not winning any Michelin stars anytime soon. The birthday brunch? Sure, they might have cute sparkles on your cake, but the pancakes could use a masterclass in fluff. The atmosphere is nice, and the service is friendly, though you might have to flag down the staff more than once. So, if you’re in the area and in the mood for something decent, it might tick the box.

However, if you’re after a food experience that’s going to linger in the memory, you might be better off hitting up the local bakery instead. It’s all fine and dandy, but just remember—good doesn’t always mean great. It’s a vanilla vibe, with the occasional sprinkles of effort.
