Fewer stars were given for service and value. Initially we were seated immediately which was nice but the timing of the service was very inconsistent. We barely had time to make a decision and asked multiple times if we were ready to order which felt rushed. Then once we were ready to order the staff not return despite numerous attempts to catch attention. There were two wait staff persons the other one looked at me and I signaled that we were ready and she purposely ignored my gesture. She did not inform the other staff that we were ready. It got to the point where I had to flag down the staff verbally in order to place an order. This all took about 20 mins plus before we were able to order. Further the restaurant was not at full capacity during this period of time. The inconsistent part was upon completion the wait staff was much more attentive and friendly asking numerous times about everything and if we enjoyed our meal. Overall I did not feel the genuine sense of being taken care of on this occasion. The value of the food and service did not match the price.

Great place for breakfast or lunch. Very creative menu filled with unique creations. Delicious.

Food was ok. Service fine. Had to ask server for suggestions, being our first visit. He didn't ask. May return if I'm in the area, but there are so many other good restaurants on 17th street, that I probably won't try again.

We had a wonderful breakfast. The service was fantastic and the food was great. The only thing was they had to keep the door open for the guests outside and it was very cold and it had been raining. It also got very windy but our server mover our table so that it was further away from the door. That made a big difference and made us much more comfortable. All in all, it was a great experience and I'm sure we'll be back

A great go-to favorite for many years. I enjoy the options of indoor or outdoor dining. Food is always correct temperature and tasty. An easy choice. Menu is varied and nice takes of international favorites.

Made a reservation the day before and we were seated immediately after checking in, the waitress was very attentive and helpful. The wife and I will be returning soon.

Apple salad was very light, delicious and healthy. Loved it. The scone was so so but delicious iced tea with subtle peach flavor. My friends loved their omelette and chicken sandwich too.

Great service! I enjoyed my over easy eggs, peppered bacon, but pancakes were very dry... I enjoy this breakfast restaurant and will give it another go.

Lovely experience. The food was great and the portions were quite large. Service was fantastic & reservation was easy to make. Also kid friendly & had high chairs. Will definitely come back!

I had such a great experience at Plums Café! Everything from the food to the service was excellent. The dishes were fresh and flavorful, and the staff was attentive and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this spot.
Brought my sister and her boyfriend here for their first time. We all had a delicious brunch and fantastic service.

We had breakfast here today with friends and our small dog. After finishing our meal and paying, our dog briefly barked when other dogs passed by, and we immediately hushed her. A server named Celsy then approached and said, “Sorry, we don’t allow dog barking.” I apologized and explained we were leaving, but her tone felt unnecessarily rude.
We frequently dine at dog-friendly places and have always been respectful and considerate of others. Unfortunately, because of this unpleasant interaction, we won’t be returning or recommending this establishment.

Definitely a good idea to make reservations. Staff was friendly everyone helps everyone. The matcha latte was OK, needed like a Lil more sweet, Definitely earthy. The Cinnamon latte also ok, lil strong not as sweet. The tiny Cinnamon roll was good but a Lil dry on the outside. The waffle was softer than a crispy Belgian waffle, still tasted good and the Berries were so good and fresh not mushy. And the creme on top super good. The breakfast sandwich was large so I split it. That was really good and we took home a take and bake Cinnamon roll which we are super excited about patio is dog friendly no dog menu but they should invest in one, maybe dog friendly pancakes and waffles with cream and Berries, dogs love that! We'll definitely be back to try more items
