2 years agoStumbled into this place with my brother both not knowing where to eat after searching for fabric next door. And we’ll definitely be back. It was delicious and such great value! Lovely staff beautiful space. It happened to be quite busy while we were there but the staff did an amazing job at staying on top of everything with smiles on their faces. We had the corn stack and French toast. Both super delicious

3 years agoNice spacious cafe. Pleasant service. Food was good. I had salmon baked in flakey pastry with small side salad. Very nice. The cabinet was low on food at 1-15pm and if very busy not sure about wait times as staffing a bit limited. Go early I guess.

4 years agoExcellent price and size of meal but lacking in some areas. We decided to try breakfast here. People here already were having mostly coffee which was great. Cabinet food may be a better choice. Breakfast took a long time with staff caring for kids while cooking. Space for cooking was limited. Bacon cooked on sandwich grill first and left on plate on bench (not oven) while other food was cooked. I had to give my breakfast to one of our party just so he could have something before he had to go. Most food on plate was cold and one of the staff apologized saying they werent equiped for cooking so many breakfasts at a time (5). Lots of good features like menu inside golden books and area for kids to relax further back but maybe stick to a more basic cabinet food menu so food can be prepared in a timely manner.

5 years agoI loved the place but I had so much dressing on my salad that it was running off the board & all over the table & floor. My cake came out first before my egg /bacon slice. The staff were nice but one lady who served us wasn't good at muli tasking, too busy trying to serve the customer in front & running around with her money & change & trying to serve me at the same time
