Named after three novice pioneers who once bought land in this area, this well-hidden cafe is a popular local bolt-hole. Residents from nearby apartments chat over coffee in the woodsy front area or head upstairs for sit-down breakfasts and light lunches (wild mushroom baguette recommended). It's often busy during weekend brunchtimes, when eggs benny dishes lure the ravenously hungry.
