Went here for breakfast and while the food was nothing spectacular, the service was great. Our server was so sweet and attentive. I'll be honest it's not the cleanest or cutest spot and theres only like 4 tables... but we wanted a quick diner meal with no frills served with a smile, and this delivered.

Cute little place with the most amazing cappuccino in town. The staff and the owner are very kind and they know how to take care of their customers! So it’s a happy morning at this place!!

The connection café is a hidden gem in downtown Bradenton. Great menu and the food is delicious and reasonable!

Lee and Shelley Anderson have created a local gem! I love the atmosphere and the extensive menu. It's cozy, friendly and the food is delicious. My favorite is the spinach, feta, mushroom, tomato and egg crepe. Parking was super easy too which was a big plus for me.

My husband and stopped in for breakfast, and we're sure glad we did! The food was great, reminded me of the diners up North, the coffee was so delicious, the portions were more than generous,. The most impressive thing is the owner Shelley's dedication to making sure we had plenty of delicious coffee and that we were satisfied with our meal. We are in Bradenton one more day and will back before we return home!!
We are visiting Bradenton for a funeral and stopped by for a quick bite. Absolutely wonderful waitress who it turns out is one of the owners. Great food, very well priced. If we're ever in town again, we will definitely come back.

I stopped in for breakfast and really enjoyed my meal. My omelette was generous in size, cooked perfectly and tasted so good. I especially enjoyed my chat with one of the owners, Shelly. She was so nice. Her and her husband own and operate this restaurant. I wish them much success. I'd encourage anyone to give this cafe a try. They have a nice looking lunch menu too. I'll definitely go back.

Excellent breakfast this morning at this little gem!! I was going to share a pic, but it looked and tasted so good it was quickly consumed.
