Place is so small but food is great. We got biscuits and gravy, corned beef hash, and french toast (no picture)
Food is very good. Servers a little slow seating people even when tables open up.
Just tried this place for the first time for breakfast and it was absolutely amazing!
Walked in on a Sunday around noon and was able to get a table for two immediately. I absolutely loved their hot chocolate, the eggs Benedict with locks and avocado was so good. And they did not skimp on the avocado! Their pierogies are a must, we got the potato and cheese filled to share. The staff was very kind. There's not a ton of parking in the front, but there is some on the side and in the back.
It's a great place to go for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The menu has changed and continues to evolve with the name change but the food is consistently good. I'm personally less into the potato pancakes than the pierogies here but that's a personal preference. Kielbasa and the various pancake options are my favorite as well as eggs in any form. They have different Benedicts, all good. The oatmeal and the strawberry arugula salad are part of my regular rotation. You're going to find something here you'll like, is the bottom line. There are health-conscious options. Portions are huge so the price per dish is easily for two to three meals. FYI, there is a lot more parking in the back. I have some breakfast spots closer to me but will keep going here instead. It's a neighborhood gem.
This is my second time and I will come back again.Effecient services and food is flavorful.
The food and service were amazing. Great selection.

Terrible service. I came for a takeout order on the afternoon of Saturday Oct 19th. There’s a bunch of kids working behind the counter. I was primarily dealing with a tall guy that spoke Spanish and a girl with dark brown hair in a ponytail. They had their backs against the counter, were hanging out talking and scrolling through instagram. Completely ignoring the counter. I placed my order and specifically ordered onion rings with my burger and 2 sunrise drinks. The guy told me my food would be ready in 15 minutes. After 45 minutes and them clearly seeing me standing around waiting, I had to ask multiple times. I kept getting “it’ll be out in a few minutes.” Nobody was checking or seemed to care that I was waiting for 45 minutes. Finally they bring my food out and tell me I’m “good to go,” but I had to remind them about my 2 drinks. Only then did they go make them. When I got home, no onion rings. Just regular fries. Infuriating first experience, I’ll never go back.

Horrible place, hostess and servers were so rude, after waiting almost an hour for a table they told us they couldn’t seat us. We were party of 5, there as plenty’s of 4 top tables and plenty of space around them, we asked to just add an extra chair and we’ll make it work with the kids, they can sit on our laps, but they refused to seat us. The hostess proceeded to seat people that came long after us and we never got seated. We decided to order our food and eat it at the table outside, then another waitress came out and explained that they have a “system” and we’d have to be seated at either her section or the other section because of the tips. We decided to leave and never coming back. Horrible experience from the get go.

Update: it is amazing what few months could do to the level of service in a place, and Cozy turns out to be no exception, let's unpack this now:
When a customer says somthing regarding the service in a place, the first 2 words out whomever the customer is talking to are :I'm sorry, however this wasn't the case on today's visit, which will be our last, sadly.
After a 20 minute wait, you're taken to your table asked what drinks you'd like and left for few minutes to make your choice, that's normal and fine, however, getting your drinks and not even asking if you're ready, to move the next table, that was seated after you, to take that table's deink order and full order for 4 people while you and your spouse are left to...uhhh figure out your own answers to the universal question...are we invisible!?
When i pointed out the young lady if there was any reason why she kinds skipped us , no apology, just attitude and well, take it or leave it!
So, we left it :-) paid for the drinks with exact change, needless to say, no tip.
So, back to the beginning of this wee rant, it is amazing what 1 person can do to your business, and i guess since business is doing well, who cares if 1 or 2 people are treated like plebs :-)
I left my original review as is, it's from August of 2024, just so viewers can compare.
So long, Cozy Cafe, my money is going somewhere else.
Food quality is top notch, very nice and wide options on the menu, simply put...there is somthing for everyone's taste and craving.
Portion size is...well..very generous to say the least, during the 45 minutes my wife and I were there, not one guest left without a to go box :-) which is nice to see to be honest, it's good to see a business that takes care of giving "your money's worth" kind of treatment.
My one not so positive note, mind you, not criticizing at all, is that the dining room in the front was a bit too warm, and the room in the back was a bit too loud due to the placement of the speaker, other than that, everything was perfect.
Highly Recommend this place for breakfast/lunch, oh, and if you are into kielbasa, order the "Strong&Sexy" which isn't what some might think lol, but a kielbasa lovers dream ;-)

Had a great experience when I visited. Took my whole family, and no one was left unsatisfied. The food was delicious, and the portions were big. I highly recommend you go try if you're in the area.

Super tasty large portions, friendly staff. As is often the case - it looks inconspicuous from the outside but the inside is very cozy and clean.
