Fantastic egg/potato/cheese dish! 3 of us all had different versions of it and they were all really exceptional! They had superb gluten-free toast (perfect taste AND texture), great raspberry jam, and their home-fries were seasoned just right, as well as crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Good coffee too! And a decent price ($20-25). Highly recommended!

Delicious, made to order food. Tastes just like you want it to. Avocado toast with egg and arugula is just like I would make it at home. Egg cooked perfectly medium. Ham cheese and egg sandwich was generous, tasty and hot. Fantastic cherry turnovers with “ real” cherry filling. Servers were pleasant and friendly. All in all a great stop for our breakfast as we got on the road.

This was a quaint shop for quick bites like soup/salad/sammies but also handhelds. Pricing was reasonable, service was pretty quick. The taste was ok, portions were average. Our server guy was great but the gal who took our order was snippy that we wanted split checks. Overall a solid 80%

I'm so happy I stopped here before my flight. I had the house salad with chicken. The greens were fresh, and the chicken was juicy. I have no idea what their house dressing is, but its delicious. Also, Im a bit of a cheese snob, and the parm was excellent quality. I had room for dessert and got an apple turnover. It came out warm and gooey, but not too sweet. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming. I really enjoyed the 80/90s music videos on the TV. Definitely served as a conversation starter. My server couldn't have done a better job; my mimosa was never empty . If I ever come back to the area, I'll be making it a point to come back.

So happy to have stopped by on our weekend visit from out of state. Get the weekend enchilada breakfast; it's so good. Everything about this place is awesome. Very cozy and clean. They have a small crew—four people and two cooks—in a very tight, open kitchen. The fact that they can produce great-looking food and exceptional service and keep a clean establishment with such a small team is very telling. These people are true professionals. This place can get busy, so expect a wait; it will be worth it. Sit back, relax, and remember to tip well.
