Recent Reviews
Sweet Berry is the perfect breakfast place if you want to enjoy a heartfelt breakfast with the family. The interior has a 'homey' and warm vibe to it and the service is mostly great! I only had one time when a server was a little rude but it wasn't a deal breaker. The food is delicious and the prices are reasonable.

The food portion is great for what you pay for, and they have a yummy plant based menu. Their lattes are good, too. The service was very nice and attentive. Would love to return here!

My favorite breakfast place, the portion and quality of the food was top notch. My family and I loved it here and will be coming back again the next time I’m back home in town. Also our waitress was an absolute delight and super friendly. I forgot her name but thanks for being a great server to us!
