This place is wonderful for families! Our four-year-old loves coming here because they let kids draw on the tables while you wait for your food, which is an awesome distraction.
Richard is an amazing cook and server, and the whole team has always treated us great during brunch. My wife’s favorite is the red velvet waffle, and you can’t beat the $5 mimosas.
If you’re looking for a relaxed brunch spot that’s family-friendly and serves great food, this place definitely...read full review
