Tuck Box

Wonderful breakfast and lunch spot. We have eaten there many times. The scones are what keep us coming back! In addition to their other amazing choices!

The waitress was completely rude. I asked her for a recommendation, and she started speaking to me disrespectfully and treating me as if I were clueless and stupid. We considered changing restaurants but decided to stay and reflect our dissatisfaction in the tip. When she brought the bill, she had included a 20% gratuity. We told her we didn’t feel comfortable paying that due to the way she had treated us, and she replied, “If you didn’t feel comfortable, you should have gotten up and left.” Those were her exact words. She then proceeded to charge us, and my friend asked her not to include the tip. She said she would charge it anyway and told us to leave, calling the situation completely unnecessary. We spoke politely at all times, but I will NEVER return and do not recommend anyone to go while this lady is serving.

Charged for items never ordered. Do not accept cards so effectively you have to overtip.

Amazing place, very beautiful and feel in the grandmamas home, good price, we were happy to visit the restaurant. Yes we waited for our turn about 20 mins, but it was worth it. Highly recommend. Salad with chicken and strawberries was very delicious!

We've been coming to the Tuck Box for years. Our favorite dishes are prepared with the same excellence every time. Smoking Jack omelet (smoked salmon, jack cheese, avocado, and hollandaise sauce, paired with their homemade scones, which are to die for (in my opinion). Heartwarming, charming decor, with collectible ceramic teapots and delightful floral touches. Warm, friendly, accommodating staff and an outdoor patio for diners with canine companions.

This fairy-tale themed building is a must if good food and service are on the menu. We visited on Sunday, Labor Day weekend. Given the small maximum occupancy of the locale, we had to wait about 10 minutes to get seated but it wa worth it. The food was fresh and delicious. The menu offers a little bit of everything and specialty items, such as its home-made scone and Olalliberry mimosas - both delicious. Don't pass up the country potatoes as they are delicious and fresh. It's doggy friendly, in the patio, so even four-legged family members can enjoy this lovely gem.
