The place is really cute and the food was decent, but the vibe of the staff was off - not very friendly, so I probably wouldn’t come back.

Delicious chicken breast sandwich with a touch of pepper and maple glaze on toasted bread and pickles, onions, lettuce, tomatoes. Cute antique area within the space to visit. Reasonable priced items and friendly service. Large selection of breakfast food, breakfast served until 2. Lunch items between 11-2.

Love looking for local, unique places to eat. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. The food was great! I had the Hash Brown Platter- The Burlington Sleeper and it did not disappoint. I couldn’t eat all of it. My husband had the Union Pacific French Toast and loved it!

Along with it also being an antique shop, this hidden gem was a great find for a good meal with good service.Their menu is specific to the theme and it's certainly a contender for my consideration for a more regular spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch engagement.The only reason it's not 5 stars is because there are some aspects of the experience that did have a bit of a "free hotel breakfast" feel to it's options of beverages. Coffee that was burnt and juices from the same machine you see in cheap hotels.The food was delicious, the only two issues I had was the eggs that were served (over easy) one of them had the yoke popped prior which was a bummer. That and the toast was only half toasted. One piece was toasted while the other was just bread. It bent and folded without crunch or any real sign of being toasted.Beyond those two issues, the food was great.4/5 - would recommend for friends and family.

This is a little breakfast joint with a great atmosphere and good food.The inside is rather small, so expect it to fill up at prime hours. Also, parking around this area isn't straightforward.We ordered a few items and while everything was good, there was nothing in particular that stood out as unique or interesting. The decor is great - our 3 year old loved the food and the trains.
