    Great Food, Friendly Staff

    Great food, the fact that we were some of the only non-locals is a good sign! The food was very good and filling, even my year and a half year old ate it all. The staff are super friendly as well. Recommend eating her!

    Nice cafe

    I wanted a good breakfast, and I got one here. They serve standard diner food, with reasonable prices. Service was friendly and fast. My Denver omelet was huge, and tasty. Good value.

    Totally Overrated!

    Seriously, I don’t know what all the hype is about. Neither my French toast nor my husband’s omelette and potatoes were anything special. Even the coffee was mediocre.

    This little gem is a local fav. Great food, fun staff and relaxing way to start the day. Breakfast cooked to order or off the menu. And the coffee is non stop.

    Let ‘em freeze

    Decent food, but their dining room is horribly small. Long waiting times to eat inside, and you WILL want to eat inside, especially on a typical sub-60-degree morning. Believe it or not, they did not bother to buy propane for their otherwise adequate heaters for...More
