"We visited this cafe previously & note on this visit a name change. Now called Selah, they don't have a surcharge on weekends & have great breakfast specials along with good coffee. We took advantage of the $15 brekky deal, which included a coffee & sandwich/wrap. Nice service too"

"Selah is my local café. I’ve tried all the iced mochas in the area, and they have the best one. Dweena always greets you with a smile, and I always feel welcome. This café also has special coffee flavors, which are a nice plus when you want to try something new. I would highly recommend it!"
