I’ve been here twice, both times the waiter heavily recommended adding a tip, once “for the kitchen” and the other was for her specifically (two separate people) and she even asked if her service was bad. for that 2nd time, me and my 4 friends had split our bill and 2/4 tipped, so she essentially singled out the two that didn’t. did not feel welcoming and personable.
the first time i went the food was pretty good but expensive given i only ordered 1 entree and a drink (somehow spent ~$35) and the drink i got was very good. so good in fact that when i returned a year later, i got that exact drink and it was noticeably smaller (although nothing crazy) and a slightly darker color. my friend got the same one though and it looked more like what i had the first time. thus the drinks seem to be made inconsistent.
the food the 2nd time around was very average, i could genuinely make it myself and have it taste the exact same way. their fries were undersalted or something as it didn’t taste like anything, the hash brown had too much black pepper also :(
TLDR; waiters will insist on tip and not in a remotely kind or subtle way, food is average at best and drinks are of inconsistent quality.

I thought this would be a new place for us to go to but not a good experience. No flexibility on the limited breakfast menu. Every option was an upcharge. Breakfast was small- 2 eggs, 1 slice of toast (not 2-even though I had them hold the home fries),1/4 of an avocado (about 3 slices for $3),& 3 slices of bacon =$22. Every option to replace home fries was an upcharge. No healthier options and only 1 slice of very small toast! No decaf either. Very disappointed.

firstly, i’ll say its always a good time every time i visit here. the service is always great as well. unfortunately, since finding out about the changes to the menu, i may not frequent here as much. the chorizo benny was a top menu item and am deeply disappointed to see it gone. I sometimes order the rice bowl or chicken and waffles which i would like to suggest to have an option of no onions in the roasted poblano corn for allergy purposes! but nonetheless i ordered the breakfast street tacos and i will say that while it is delicious, the presentation is not practical. impossible to eat without it all falling apart and should at least be a standard to double the tortillas if you’re going to use corn tortillas. as for the drinks, the açaí mimosa and marg flight were pretty good (except for the spicy watermelon). good food and do recommend but it may not be our go-to spot anymore.

Its a very cute little breakfast diner. Has a classic old school style decor with a fun twist. Very colorful and playful. Food is amazing and it was a nice place to sit and talk over some good food and coffee.

I visited the North Andover location on Father’s Day and it was packed. I was able to get a seat at the bar as I was by myself and within a few minutes the few seats left were full. The bartender greeted me promptly giving me time with the menu. I forget which mimosa I ordered but it was tasty. I got the egg rolls (not pictured because I devoured them) and the everything bagel aoli on there is literally everything. So good I’ll be ordering them again for sure! I also got the breakfast burrito and I believe I added chorizo and side of bacon. The only reason I didn’t finish it was because the portions are so generous! The manager was hard at work and visible throughout my visit helping her team. I don’t typically venture away from the eggs Benedict but I’m still thinking about this meal 2 weeks later so I wanted to write a review!

We were able to get right in and sit at the bar at 10:45. We ordered then waited until 11:15 for the food, which was scooped-casserole-dish scrambled eggs, toast, bacon and hash browns. The bartender was inattentive, though the bar wasn't half full, to get a coffee refill. The food was underwhelming (this is a generous term). What we hoped would be a bit of an elevated brunch ended up worse than a greasy spoon diner, particularly because of the price. We didn't have alcoholic drinks but the menu did look good for drinks. We were able to pay by app.

My family comes here's 1-2 times per month which includes two kids under 5 years of age. They are very accommodating and the service is pretty quick which is appreciated with the patience of young kids. Sarah waited on us the last two times and provided great service, was kind, and again quick to take our order and get food to the table. The food is nothing out of this world, but the atmosphere is great for the family. The breakfast adult beverages are tasty!

I’ve always loved that this place has a couple vegan items already on the menu. But after a few years of going here, I really wish they would add something other than the three items they have. That being said, the items they have are very tasty and the staff definitely knows what vegan means.
Food was excellent. Good size portions. Cocktails are pretty simple but good. It was very busy for Sunday brunch so service was a little slow. Will definitely go again.

Dish sounded way better than it tasted. Could just be me. OJ was amazing and so was service.

The food was awful. The homefries are mushy, I asked for sourdough toast and whatever I got was the cheapest, slightly stale white bread on hand. My omelette was just okay but the bowl my daughter ordered was foul. The ground beef in it was either boiled or microwaved and had this off-putting sweet-sour sauce on it that made it worse. I’m sorry to leave a bad review but before a tip it was $48 for two people. We won’t be back.
