The food was good, service was excellent. The place is small, with 4 peoples, we have to wait a little but it well worth it.

Service was amazing, the food was excellent, and the little cafe was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend the biscuits and gravy, feels very homemade. Grab a cup of apple juice, too. Best I've had! They have indoor and outdoor seating.I'd find street parking because it's .75 cents an hour, and the lot across the street is $10/hr if I remember correctly.

Tried the Blueberry and corn waffles. It was good. $25 for a waffle and coffee is premium price though. Indulge if traveling.

I finally tried the pumpkin waffle and it was lighter than I expected and was delicious. Friendly service, few people there the last hour before closing. The parking was a test of patience.Parking: Beware the parking spaces are in high demand and the parking meters are not always in working order. Twice the parking meter I was at did not work. I was so excited to find a spot and then had to move once because the meter was broken. I learned my lesson from a time before when I was given a ticket. It was drizzling and the meter to the left facing the restaurant was malfunctioning. The interface was hard to read because of the elements. I guess they malfunction in the rain. I wish there were more parking options. I miss free street parking.Kid-friendliness: It's a smaller place, the chairs and vibe are more adult-y. The chairs are more for couples and the seating is tight. There are many other better options for kids.
