Where exactly is Cake? Everyone raves about it and I'd love to try it, but I can't find the location/address for it anywhere!

It is in what used to be Robertson's greenhouse. It is on Highland Ave., just east of Germantown Ave.

I've only had lunch at Cake a couple of times, never Brunch. If their Brunch is half as good as their lunch, I would recommend it very highly!

We keep meaning to try it, but haven't. Sadly, I don't even know the name. Maybe someone else on Phillyblog has been?
I go there 2/3 times a week. Good food, clean, service is good also. Average price, not expensive, not cheap. Never had a bad meal there. It's your basic type food, nothing fancy, just good.

Default Trio Cafe

Has anyone eaten there? I drove by it tonight and realized I'd been by it a ton of times, but always missed seeing that it was even there. I googled it and couldn't find anything...and it's not on menupages either.

What do they serve? What's their hours? What are their prices like? It looks cute...I can't believe I've missed it. Even though someone on this very thread mentioned it.
