Coffee was very gross, tasted like weak coffee flavoured hot water, toast was burnt, inattentive service, bacon and eggs were on point, ambiance is fine. Will never ever come back, way overpriced for below mid food, might as well just go to Dennys and save a couple of bucks. Get your coffee on point, that's basically rule 1 for a breakfast place. Sheesh.

Ordered uber eats from here, breakfast burrito. Full of potatoes, literally potato flavor only, taste like cooked potato with dough. It seems like they tried to sell cheap product with buy one get another free deal, its shittest breakfast ever had. I would never sell this kind of product to customers

This place is good now. I had a BLT with really good bacon, and hash browns made how they should be. Mimosa was nice too. Heather was our wonderful waiter.
Bathrooms were very clean and accessible.

This was just around the corner from the hotel we were staying in. So good, we went 3 days in a row for breakfast.
Pancakes and waffles were great. On Wednesday I had an omelette and did not need to eat anything till teatime.
Glad it's not closer to home, or there's a chance I'd almost live there.

This place was what I expected. I got some blueberry pancakes, sausage, and bacon. They make the bacon super crispy, so if you like that, that's a good thing. I don't enjoy bacon like that so I gave mine to my friend. Other than that, the food here was great. I am not a huge fan of breakfast food in general, but I enjoyed mine and so did my friends. I thought the food was reasonably priced, my friends thought it was a bit expensive. So maybe is a little high.

Staff were friendly, quick and efficient. Food was very good, home style and filling. Happy to see multiple LGBTQ+ flags hanging around the dining room.

This place is always busy but we get seated quickly. Unpretentious and unfussy, fast and friendly service. Good portions and good food. It may sound silly, but I appreciate that they give you whole bottles of ketchup and hot sauce so I can sauce the way I like it.

Avocado & Tomato Benny - delicious

The Chopped Steak - the beef patty is super dry without any flavor, not even meat flavor
