The waffled sour dough grilled cheese was so unique and the coffee is excellent.

Food was OK. The menu was very misleading. The vegan options were basically a plate full of rice and beans with everything else that is not Vegan removed from it even though it said it had cheese and other ingredients that could be vegan if they had vegan imitation cheese and so on. When we brought that piece of information to the waitress attention, she just said OK.
Some of the food was good like the vegan chickpea pancake. The waffle, grilled cheese was so plain and unflavored. And the turkey sandwich had massive chunks of turkey that were not very pleasant to eat.

We had a wonderful brunch this morning. The place was hopping, but worth the wait.

I was definitely expecting a great breakfast based on their reviews, but I left disappointed. The Croissant French Toast was a huge disappointment, it was extremely flat and flavor without syrup was decent at best. The included fruit cup looked great, but the pineapple was basically the core it was so hard. The only plus for this place was the two egg omelette off the kids menu, which my son really enjoyed. Service was decent and staff were friendly. Overall if you’re looking for coffee give them a chance but pass on the food.

Returned a year later, and in my cosplay getup. Still very good. Friendly staff asked me what I was dressed as. Club sandwich was great.

I’ll start with the good and go from there. The location is very convenient if you’re downtown for business or a conference. The dining room is very clean and there is outdoor dining available but it’s pretty loud. The food was good. I had an omelet, which was tasty, and it was plated well with greens and jam or other condiments in little cups on the side. My only complaint about the omelet was that the ingredients in the center were still a little cool, presumably from refrigeration, making the omelet warm-ish. Definitely not hot. Their house blend coffee is fabulous but it’s self-serve… which I guess I like in some ways but not others. On food alone I would have rated it a 4. So why the rating of 3? The service. The hostess and our waitress acted like the place - and they- were just a little too cool to actually be there, serving you, or to be very friendly. For instance, our waitress acted rather bored and has clearly rattled off the bread options 1000s of times, so plowed through them super fast in a monotone. Problem? It’s the first time any of us have ever heard them, so slowing down to make sure we can actually hear them all would have been helpful. It’s just not very customer-focused to go through them so quickly just because you can. By the time the third person at our table ordered, I think I caught them all. When our food came, she came up behind one person at our table to serve their breakfast by just reaching around her with the plate. Our colleague didn’t even know the waitress was there and then this plate emerges from behind her. Once our food was served she never came back to check if everything was good or whether we needed anything. And the place was maybe 1/3 full, so not super busy. She just wasn’t very friendly or professional. I’d eat there again purely for the convenience of location but I wouldn’t have high expectations.
Cute and perfect little brunch spot! Great service! I am always a sucker for a fantastic little brunch spot when I’m traveling and I am so glad the woman at the hotel I was at recommended this place!
We had breakfast here twice while visiting a conference and it was fine both times. Both the omelettes, granola and waffles are tasty and also customisable if required. Lots of choice on the menu and friendly and helpful service. You can pour your own coffee (and it's better than average) and also take some outside if you want.
I came on a Saturday morning for brunch. The place was packed with people, but I was seated in just a few minutes. The menu features omelettes and other breakfast favorites as well as sandwiches. I had a large omelette with fresh fruit and toast. It came out surprisingly quickly considering how busy the restaurant was. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and efficient. This is a great spot to meet up with friends to enjoy breakfast or lunch.
Had a really great brunch with the family. Good quality food and fair prices. They had excellent fruit which is something I think helps set good places apart.
