Shop Highlights: Local cafe that focuses on what matters, nifty place to enjoy a breakfast sandwich

Total Package Review: Cafe Dawn is a breakfast cafe that bakes and serves their own fresh bagels daily. They only have a couple bagel varieties and not a massive sandwich menu but what they do have is quality and flavorful. A nice ambiance and outdoor seating round this cafe out.

Total Package Score: 7 / 10

Bagel Score: 6 / 10

Shop Ambiance: Cafe Dawn is located just a half block from the center of downtown Salida. It is an open and airy space serving up hot drinks and eats. The space feels homey and calm. There is an outdoor seating area adjacent to the shop.

Personal History with Shop: I frequently recreate in Salida and need a proper breakfast to fuel up. Cafe Dawn has done that for me on one occasion so far.

Ownership: One-of-a-kind Small Business
