We stopped by today and the shop was actually closed for Thanksgiving, yet the owner came out, offered us fresh coffee, and even gave my kids a homemade loaf of bread. It was one of the kindest, most unexpected gestures.

He was so generous, so genuine, and it just confirmed what an amazing local spot this is. If we lived closer, this would 100% be our family’s go-to coffee shop.

Such a warm, welcoming place — absolutely worth visiting if you’re in the area. Highly recommend!

Love the staff, the food, and the aesthetic. Cozy and simple.

The food took over 40 minutes to come out. We ordered chicken and waffles (which they mistakenly entered as chicken and eggs) but mistakes happen. The other order was a sausage egg and cheese sandwich. I cannot comprehend how it could take over 45 minutes to make and serve this dish, no matter how “busy” it may be. Avoid for breakfast if you actually have things to do in your day.

We sat outside for Sunday brunch around 1:30 pm. There was a ~35 minute wait for food, which we were told about before ordering.

I got the Bubble & Squeak and it was delicious! My husband got a breakfast sandwich and he enjoyed his as well! I see some other reviews mentioned seasoning — ours was perfectly seasoned.

We enjoyed the food and atmosphere and will be back! 😊

The food here is great, just be prepared to wait 25+ minutes for it.

Food was pretty mediocre. Long line that took awhile to order. Not sure why they don’t have a number system of some sort. It’s counter service but then no way to track where the food is going so the servers are just walking around yelling names through the crowded space. My food came first which was the Spanish omelette. It was fine but I also ordered toast and my husband got a breakfast sandwich. We decided to split both because we were hungry. We were done with the omelette before we even saw the toast or BEC about 15 minutes later. The toast had no butter or jam or anything. I feel like they should try to keep tickets together so people can eat together! I’ve worked in a restaurant my whole life so I feel for them - the kitchen guys looked extremely stressed as did the food runners. I can only assume they’re short staffed or lots of new people are being trained? I think if this place could get some things streamlined and organized it could be way better but right now it’s just a bit of a mess. Best thing we got was the pumpkin chocolate muffin - delicious!

We both got the shrimp and grits, personally I found them to be too salty and oily for my taste. I also found the restroom door to be an anxious person’s worst nightmare since it is partially see through so someone can tell if someone is on the toilet… but the service was spectacular and the prices were reasonable.

Food, environment and staff were all AMAZING! This was no doubt freshly made food from scratch, including the sausage. Highly recommended!

The food was really good, but the restaurant itself as a business is bizarrely run. We waited for an hour for a biscuit, some fries, and two entrees at 11am on a Sunday. We had two little kids with us and a hour wait from ordering to serving is just too much for the kids.

The place was busy but it wasn’t like people were lining up down the block busy, just usual NODA on the weekend busy. It’s also so strange to me that they don’t give you any number to put on your table, so the waitresses are holding the food running from the restaurant to the front around the building to the back dining area calling your name. There were times they would walk back and forth with the same plate of food for a few times because people weren’t paying attention. I feel so bad for them. And it’s such an easy problem to solve.

The food was delicious and my savory bowl was such a creative take on oats. But was it 65 minute worth of deliciousness? Definitely not. There are plenty restaurants with great food in the area that have a much more reasonable wait time.

Order up front and wait to be served at your table. The staff will walk around calling your name. Pro tip let them know where you are going to be sitting.
