DO NOT COME HERE, they will burn everything you order, give you microwave bacon, and overcharge u. Didn’t get the pancakes but I would assume they would be awful as well.

Decent

Gary Cohen

Most selections of eggs and pancakes start at 17.00 each. I certainly will not return

Candace Shipp

A coworker recommended this place to me this week. So I decided to try it. I was sadly disappointed. The service: Despite having 2 hosts and being 75% empty it took them 5-10mins us. There were 3 busers standing around, but a couple tables weren’t cleared in the time we waited to be seated. The floor didn’t look like it was swept. The waiter didn’t listen and the food was wrong. We should have left when a roach ran across the floor. The Food: when we got the right order it was not bad, but it wasn’t good either. It’s hard to screw up breakfast, but this was very Meh. Shells in the poached eggs, overcooked steak (I ordered Medium and it was Very Well), they put a piece of bell Pepper on a sweet crepe? While I’m sure that was a mistake, it was one of many. Other tables seemed to be just fine, so I don’t know what gives. But we will not be returning.

This is our go to place for a few reasons. First, my wife has celiacs so the gluten free pancakes along with the safe handling by the cooks above makes it worth it. Second, the food is perfect no matter what you order. They answer any questions you have and accommodate almost any requests for food prep. Third, the friendliness! The staff are great and remember us even though we may not visit frequently enough to warrant it! If you were just thinking about eating here, do yourself a favor and just go!

Dietary restrictions: Great options for celiacs

Parking: Parking lot essentially shared with a gas station and other small businesses but have always found parking with little to no issue.

Kid-friendliness: Staff are great with kids

Stopped by the cafe today to pick up a customer's order.
The waiter serving the table shouted loudly at me, "Do you need to pick up the order"? And laughed along with the people at the tables.
Just so he knows, I am a migrant from Russia, and I now have a part-time job in the form of delivery! I have a higher education, in Russia I worked as an accountant, and here I have two jobs, but he was laughing and reveling in the fact that I work as a delivery girl. I have an education, and he?) he is a grandfather and works as a waiter! It's such a collective farm to humiliate young girls like that! Shame on you and your restaurant! I will not come to pick up my order for any more money! And your pancakes suck, I tried them! Such pancakes in our country would go in the trash! Just so you know! I can give you a master class in pancakes! You're welcome!

I went there recently and although the food comes out really fast. The quality of the food is not great. I also can tell the vibe of the staff seemed tense and uncomfortable. I think it was due to the manager being there. Unfortunately I didn’t have a good experience again the quality of the food wasn’t great and on top of that I felt rushed to leave.
