Came in here just to relax and have coffee on a late night. The espresso was smooth and thick. I had mine cold since we were going through a heat wave + the humidity, making it a really uncomfortable night to be outside. I have to say, this was one of the best espressos I've ever had. I would come here for brunch if I was ever in the mood for overpriced eggs and toast.
Just beware that it is CASH ONLY.
Update: So since the original post when I discovered MUD's existence, I've eaten at MUD for four consecutive days because #clingy. I even tried to switch it up one day and brunch somewhere else to my disappointment and returned to MUD that evening for a breakfasty dinner. So today instead of my usual home fries and omelette with mushrooms, I ordered an omelette with guac, tomatoes, and rice and beans. PARDON ME for viewing MUD as more of a coffee gig that happened to serve food. Maybe it's perception bias, but why was everything SO amazing. Perfect guac, sexy rice and beans, and of course organic egg omelette and sourdough. Ooh and siracha. Idk. It doesn't make sense.
Cash only! MUD is exotic and very cool. It has a great backyard and delicious food.
$18 value lunch set including MUD coffee (milk steamed), mimosa/Fresh OJ/beer, and the choice of main dish (yes, I know! You can have coffee and OJ at the same time!) The fresh OJ was delicious! My friends and I got pancake, love salad, and huevos rancheros with MUD coffee and fresh OJ. We enjoyed everything. Pancake was my favorite. It tastes different from the ones I usually get from other brunch places. Not buttery or dry at all, it is fluffy, soft and tasty. There are some ingredients that taste like rice water, which added slightly sourness to the dish. The fruit toppings include pineapple, orange, stew every, blueberry, apple and etc! The pancake also has banana inside of it, bringing extra fun to the dish.
Service is pleasant too. Totally worth a try when you are bored with same regular brunch places and dare to try something special =)
Went to brunch here today and had a wonderful time!
They only do the set brunch $18.50: entree, coffee, and mimosa.
Tip1: can ask for ice coffee for no additional charge
Tip2: mimosa can be the grapefruit flavor like the cocktail – in size small, it's no additional charge
Came here for brunch around 11:30AM on a Sunday and the wait was about 45min-1hr. We ordered a few iced lattes and were lucky enough to grab a seat on the benches along the windowsill so that the wait didn't seem as long as it was.
When we we were finally seated, we were seated in the inner area, which was unfortunately very poorly ventilated. So much so that the entire dining area was almost hazy!! The brunch service was slow, and the whole brunch ordeal – from wait time to when we paid the check – took us about 2.5 hours. That being said, if you are planning to come here for brunch, I hope you don't have any impending plans!
For brunch they have an $18.50 deal for a coffee/tea, alcoholic beverage, and an entree of your choice. I was irked that the server assumed that the iced latte I had in my hand hadn't been purchased at the front and wasn't going to give me the coffee/tea that was included in the meal. What an awful assumption to make – especially since my latte was in a to-go cup!
The food was mediocre and the brunch options were limited. I ordered the Mudman sandwich and while the sandwich itself was tasty, the potatoes were oddly slimy and soft (and luke warm) instead of crispy, which is how I usually expect my breakfast potatoes. This is definitely a far stretch from the best brunch place in the city.
Service was also super slow the second time I visited. We stopped by for dessert and coffee, and although I thoroughly enjoyed my companion's presence, the entire ordeal lasted close to two hours!! We'd seated ourselves in the back atrium and it was an awful idea because the waitress was almost nonexistent.
I had ordered the honey almond gelato, and it took about 1/2 hour to prepare…I watch a ton of cooking shows and that is about the time it takes to make fresh ice cream..so that gelato better have been fresh! The final latte we ordered also took an additional 1/2 hour, but the waitress was nice enough to take it off of our bill. The gelato was good, but for a 1/2 hour wait time, I expected it to be amazing. It was a honestly just a bit too sweet for my taste, and could have used more strawberries to balance out the sweetness. The Mud coffee and the Mud Mocha were both extremely watered down. So watered down they were almost undrinkable. And I'd told my friend that they had excellent coffee here. Smh. Fortunately the latte was a saving grace…if only it hadn't taken a 1/2 hour to make!
PS. The bathroom is smaller than the lavatory on an airplane. It's quite hilarious.
This is such a good coffeeshop. Not only the environment is lovely also the the service and the coffee of course.
I wish you guys a wonderful day
and njoy your coffee double it is good against wrinkles 🙂
Lovely greetings

MUD is hipster, bohemian, contemporary, cool, exotic, and cash-only (sorry for my interruption). It is a combination of coffee shop (during day time) and a bar (at night), and you can sort of tell it when you try to glimpse inside.
Stopped for a short while to get my cappuccino during middle of my weekend run and got impressed by their cappuccino. It was as smooth as I could taste and served as a perfect medicine to cure my tiredness.
I would love to return and try their famous avocado toast, or at least grab some drink at night. By the way, don't forget to grab a postcard on your way out – very "Muddy"!
Loved the chicken salad and avocado toast
The French toast had too many things in it and personally I found it too sweet
Great outdoor, shaded seating the back
Even at full capacity I could have a conversation at a normal volume
Tiny tiny bathroom
They took down my name for the wait list but not my number so i had to stick around. But the hostess was nice enough to wave me down from a stoop across the street when the table was ready
