I have been going here for many years and very recently it continues to go downhill. Fist, I understand that price have gone up , but $12 for an omelet with nothing else included is outrageous! To top it off the flavor and tastes have been lacking, corned beef hash tastes HORRIBLE (like its out of a can). I will attach a photo of the $12 omelet (if you look closely there were egg shells right on top). Second, the last two times we have been there the waitress is rude and short tempered.Sadly after many years of visiting here we will not be going back. If I'm getting good food and good service I will gladly pay the higher prices as I want them to succeed. However, with the decline of service and food I can not justify going here.

Service - this is my 2nd time coming here and I'm glad i gave this place another chance. The first time i could tell the waiter was overwhelmed and wasn't fully present. But my 2nd time was wonderful, our waitress was patient, kind, & kept checking in on us. Even though they were closing in 30 min she made sure we felt comfortable. Ambiance - small space, outdoor seating available in warmer weather. The inside seems to be decorated with specific items from the family owned business. I wasn't too sure what was the meaning behind it all, it seemed like a bunch of antique items. Food - the food was good, for the price they had options from $-$$. It was a nice place to have a quick bite. I enjoyed their seasoning on the garden eggs Benedict & home fries. Drinks - we had chocolate milk and orange juice. The waiter was kind enough to help me fix my drink to the way I enjoyed it. Location - on main street, a good location near the library. Sometimes it can get busy but they have side streets you can also park on.

Food was a bit subpar, wait time too long not enough room waited over an hour to be seated, and to be serviced greasy food. Wanted to try it, won't be going back.

Great little café in Manchester. The food and service is excellent. The prices are fair too. You won't be disappointed.

Cute and quaint spot to enjoy breakfast and lunch right in the heart of downtown. Limited seating, but cozy atmosphere with attentive staff and a decent variety of delicious offerings. Will be in my regular rotation of establishments for breakfast ?

Awful service took so long to get our breakfast and the food was just ok and really pricey for what we received. Years back they use to be good but not anymore!

So this was our 2nd time coming here..(and last) the 1st time was good but today wasn’t. First, I noticed how u gotta pay separately for homefries with ur brkfst.. I understand the meat usually is but the homefries? Then our toast came out & it was literally sopping with butter..here was more butter than toast & we understand that maybe this is how it’s done & we don’t care.. we jus wanted another set of dry toast but the lady there who we asked practically barked at us.. her attitude was rough. So I told my husband it’s probably just her personality and some women, including myself at times, come across strong. We don’t mean too it’s just r personality but I’ve learned to tone it down sometimes especially in my line of work which is in a hospital and trust me, patients are mostly rude but u smile & strut on. So we decided to not come back again.. not that you’ll suffer but u won’t be recommended by ppl I know.. we are foodies who do ask nicely & aren’t rude. What u give out will return.

So happy they opened again!! The food is so good and the staff is always so sweet to my kids. The breakfast quesadillas is a fave. For lunch I live the homemade soups and the Caesar salad.

I came in here to grab a cup of coffee for myself (and hot chocolate for my son) on the way through town. The latte was good. The hot chocolate was Carnation powder. The decor and ambiance are cute! Will come back for a real breakfast next time I'm in town.
