Great spot with a cozy atmosphere! The red sangria was delicious, and the 99-cent wings were cooked perfectly—nice and crisp. I had the Asian and medium buffalo flavors, and both were excellent. The service was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Definitely coming back!

Filled with character and personality, Front Porch is a neighborhood joint. This was my first visit (breakfast) and I’ll be back. Benedicts are legit tasty. Tip: you can substitute potato cakes for the muffins. Delicious! The salmon omelette wasn’t our favorite. Kinda dry. Feedback for the owners: you need to offer hot tea at breakfast. Totally silly that only brewed coffee is available.
