We love coming here for breakfast. It is decorated really cute inside. The menu selection is extensive, the food is great and the service is good. It's located about a block off the boardwalk & downtown shopping district. They appreciate your business.

We thoroughly enjoyed this quaint restaurant so much that we returned the next day! We did only have breakfast, but I would assume the lunch/dinner items would be just as good. We had a home-cooked breakfast with all the works. The staff were all so pleasant and accommodating. They willingingly helped each other. And the owner was just as hard-working... More

I got to sample them as well and we both agree they were very tasty. I ordered the elite breakfast-... More

Great breakfast. Ate here one day and Browns the next. We thought this place had better food. The young lady that waited on us was very friendly and had a great smile. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely choices for breakfast and lunch. Vegetarian options too! Try the OC Surf sandwich - tomato and home made guacamole ( a little spicy with the jalapeños-but I loved that!). Great vibe. Staff is wonderful. Nice decor. Reasonable prices.

Without a doubt this is the best place to eat breakfast in Ocean City, and most other places. I have eaten at Browns, Ove's and dozens of other places in OCNJ. None of them can compare. A short stroll from the boardwalk and you can enjoy exquisitely prepared food in air conditioned luxury. I have eaten here many times and... More

Wow! Who knew?!? We hesitantly walked into this cafe to have breakfast. From looking at the outside, we weren't too sure what we were in for. It is small, but we soon found out that we made a great choice! It was fantastic in every way! Decor, food, prices, service, cleanliness......it was all good!! We had breakfast there 2 days... More

The restaurant is right on 8th Street, just before the boardwalk. It's brightly decorated, air conditioned, and clean. The service was great, the servers were all very friendly, and the food was terrific! We went there two days in a row for breakfast, and all 5 of us loved what we got. I would highly recommend it!
