Brunch at Pauline’s good, simple flavors, adorable portions, and a very slow-motion dining experience. Bonus points if you enjoy mystery hotel/tavern entrances.

Brunch vibes at Pauline this morning 🌿✨ Tried their signature brisket benny eggs, and it was such a treat — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The café has a clean, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer, and the staff were genuinely warm, checking in often without being intrusive. It’s the kind of spot that feels both comforting and a little special. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a brunch place that hits both taste and vibes.

I had the Eggs Benedict and my friend had a cheeseburger. The food was okay—not great, but not terrible. However, the service was by far the worst part of the experience.
Our server was unfriendly and offered no options or recommendations. She was short with us, never checked in to ask how our meals were, and only returned to see if we wanted another beer. It felt like we were an inconvenience rather than welcomed guests.
I truly regret leaving a tip, and that's not something I say lightly. While I noticed other servers seemed to be doing a much better job, our experience left a bad impression. It’s unfortunate because the problem seems to be isolated to one staff member, not the restaurant as a whole.
Still, based on this visit alone, I don’t plan to return.

Expensive for the meal I got. Got the daily omelette, it was dry and lacked flavor. Average food, good service, amazingly cute space with great atmosphere. For me, it felt like cheap diner food packaged up nicely. I still enjoyed myself, though! Was quiet and comfortable, staff was nice, coffee was good.

The atmosphere was nice, and service was good. But the Croque Madame was disappointing- there was hardly any meat in it. The hash browns were adequate. Probably wouldn’t return.
It was a brunch of friends without planning much and last minute, we arrived and as we liked the space they moved us without any problem, they were super friendly and attentive.
I’ll come back with more friends so they can get to know the place.
The Matcha surprised me, next time I’ll order it warmer.

Cute place! Unfortunately the service and the quality have substantially deteriorated over time and the food is typically cold (3 consecutive visits in a row) and the lattes which used to be fabulous are now just steamed milk with a tea bag thrown in - no foam on top. The first time my food came ice cold the server told me they have no heat lamps to keep the food warm after it’s prepared for you - if they had, perhaps the experience would be better for guests! I am impressed that the restaurant can burn toast and still have it come out real cold!

I ordered the Croque Madame and just look at it! Taste as good as it looks! Paired it with the mimosa flight to get my brunch started. Friendly service and wonderful establishment. It's great to see a restaurant packed with happy customers!
