RISE AND ROAST

Rise And Roast is a small café with a 5-star rating that might give you heart palpitations just reading about it. With a hygiene score of 2, it's like the culinary version of a high-stakes poker game; you’ve got to weigh the risk versus the reward. The owner is apparently a legend, with a vibe that’s got folks swooning—Millie Snow might as well be proposing at this point, saying she’d give it a 6 if she could. The coffee is described as smooth and rich by Ali Psnni, and Kamahl Fuller is out here raving about Rosie’s bacon roll skills, which is quite the feat considering it was her first one. Who knew your morning caffeine fix could come with a side of existential dread?

But let’s be honest, the 2 hygiene rating is like a red flag waving in the wind. Sure, it’s getting 5 stars from everyone, but are they just high on caffeine? Maybe it's time to roll the dice and test your luck at this little gem which is open every day except Tuesdays. Just make sure you’re not too attached to your immune system before diving into that bacon roll.
