“ I love here! All the food is amazing! But wait for the ice cream... it’s just the best I tried !! You have to try kitchen sink or the turtles. Also, the staff is amazing. Such a nice vibe here. Nutella crepes and the Tri eggathon scrambler is a must. ”
“ I'm so glad the other restaurant we were going to go to didn't work out. This was our second choice and I'm so glad we came. The food was amazing to say the least. Seasoned good and the taste was delicious ..... my 1st time coming and not my last. This is my daughter's and I favorite breakfast spots thus far. Waitress was so nice but the only con is you have to pay separate for pancakes when other restaurants pancakes come with skillets and omelette ”
“ My wife and I spotted this place on our way home and we thought it was just a coffee spot but "Low and behold !" As they say, its a full blown restaurant! Everything was reasonably priced and there were tons of options. I ordered the a la breakfast burrito and everything was made fresh I could literally taste every ingredient inside the burrito. The server was great and the service was amazing. Definitely coming back!! ”
“ It was Good! My husband has been here before but it was my first time. My chicken fried chicken was crispy but tender inside. Juicy. Really good flavor. ”
“ Was in this area for a check up. Wanted to try something new so we ended up here. Great place. The ambiance is very nice. Seems like and old place and they did a great job in keeping the place nice and tidy. Food is great too. I tried their sandwich with salad and it was awesome. Service was very fast and parking was not a problem. ”
“ Had a fantastic breakfast here! Everything was hot and fresh with great, big portions (i ordered the small plate!). The bathrooms were really clean too which is a plus! I can’t wait to bring my in-laws here on their next visit! ”
“ Came in on a Saturday morning around 9am. About half full dining area, quickly seated and got our coffee. Lots of delicious choices for breakfast! We had the Billy omelette and the Country fried steak. Both were great! Huge portion for each person. We will consider splitting an entree next time! Family friendly, lots of coffee choices and they also have a bloody Mary on the menu. We'll be back! ”
