The nicest people you could meet in NY. The owner/cook came out and asked how everything was and if I wanted another pancake. Then the waitress came out and brought us a side of homemade skillet potatoes and bacon and said that her boss wanted us to try it. Everything we had there was absolutely the best I've had in years. We are in NY until Monday and will be eating there every morning until we leave. Wish we could scoop up the people and the place and bring it back to New Hampshire with us. Don't miss out on the best food and the friendliest people in NY.

Visiting the area from Ohio, place was highly recommended for breakfast. I second that after going. Greeted right when we walked in the door. Service and food was top tear breakfast food. Owner or manager of some sort checked on us and made an effort to make a personal connection which made us feel very welcome. 10/10 place is very good! Would come back without hesitation.

They aren't lying giving this place 5*s!!
They have a short order menu but it's delicious food. My husband had the Sal Works and I had the French toast with strawberries and a side of home fries.
I would add pictures but I may need to do that after my initial post. If it lets me, I will.

Best place for breakfast or lunch in Niagara Falls. The Buffalo Roaster Coffee makes good food even more special. Talking to the family owners when you dine out adds a special sense of community in this social gathering place.

Food was so good! This place is the local go-to for breakfast yet amazingly welcome to out of Towner's. The owner came out, gave my kids Christmas gift bags with hot cocoa and other cool treats, and really went above and beyond to make our first breakfast in Niagara a special occasion. I will recommend this place to anybody visiting Niagara. The service was taken care of by two waitresses who teamed up to make sure our meals were perfect. 5+ stars!
