I have been going here for years and enjoy everything about it. Great service! The Suzi B and Freddie D are my favorite breakfast sandwiches, the apple fritters are amazing and the clam chowder is great. My favorite is the shrimp grits!!! They are YUMMY. This is a friendly low key place to eat solo or with friends.

Love sitting inside near giant glass windows... or outside in warm weather. Wonderful, lovely music. Quiet atmosphere. Food is very good & generous portions. Nice variety of coffees & teas.
Also really enjoy looking at all the decor, based on Susan B. Anthony & other important women. Location is where she originally (illegally) voted !
Friendly, nice place > to meet or on your own.
