The food is very good and the staff are as well. The interior is a very cramped diner style but with the recent removal of some of the unnecessary bits it does feel slightly more open. You come here for the good food, not the good environment. Also - its difficult to get parking in the area.

Great service and food. The omlette was really fluffy and filled with ham, onion, pepper and cheese. Toast was good as well

AMAZING! I only had their breakfast, which was unbelievable. The best thing I’ve had so far is the grilled cinnamon roll, which is as big as your head, and so layered. Their toast is unreal, did all their baking. Great omelettes and crispy bacon.

If you're looking for a home-cooked meal, this is the place. Absolutely the best breakfast I have ever had. Eggs to order, fresh bread, crispy potatoes, bottomless coffee cup. Fair prices with a super friendly staff. I can't wait to go back for a dinner. Don't drive by if you are even remotely hungry. Parking is limited, but so is the seating in this quaint location. 5 stars should be 6.

Great food, great service, and an all-around great place to eat. Small-town café, with a hole-in-the-wall feel, but in a very good way. Highly recommended.

First time here.. not the last!!! It was soooo good! A little place with BIG hospitality, service AND FOOD! The menus is extensive...and breakfast is served any time. Love that! I had the Biacuits/Gravy Platter. Two eggs, your choice style, choice of ham, sausage or bacon (sausage for me), hashbrowns and 2 very large biscuits covered in gravy in a separate bowl. Generous portions! Will be back to try everything! lol
