Love this little local diner but this is the second time we have gone in for a late breakfast (9:30), which they say they serve until 11, and gotten hash browns that were obviously made for the 7 am crowd. And the bacon had also been on the grill around that time. The pancake, however, was wonderful, huge and fluffy.
The waitresses are great and the service is friendly. We'll be back, but not for breakfast.

This is a place that locals go over and over again which bodes well. The owner and the waitstaff are friendly and helpful. The food is wonderful - generous servings and great taste. The atmosphere is jovial and friendly. People who don't even know each other chat between tables. The art all over the walls really adds to the charm of the place. Highly recommend, especially if you want to see the real Duncan.

Our favorite place on the planet for breakfast. We're just sorry that it's an hour drive from where we live!

Great spot for breakfast in downtown Duncan (on the totem pole walk). They offer small and half portions at reasonable prices. The Bennys were tasty and the service friendly. Smaller dogs allowed on patio.

It’s a cute old school restaurant with a nice outdoor deck and lovely service but the food was incredibly underwhelming and quite expensive for the quality you get. The toast was thin and plain tasting. The eggs lacked flavour and the hash tasted more like grease than anything else. For $16 I expected slightly better quality. So while it wasn’t a bad experience it wasn’t somewhere I would go again.

Very well established café type place with great solid food items and the friendliest servers who seem to have a coffee pot stuck to their hands! This is a great place for breakfast or lunch in the heart of Duncan.

After a wait of 19 minutes we finally ordered, another near 20 minutes my breakfast arrives with a finger nail on top of my over easy eggs.
After a brief conversation with the so called owner I will never return and will strongly suggest not going to this cafe.
The owner is bluntly arrogant and very inconsiderate.
