First time in! Wonderful experience and our server at the counter, Laurie, was amazing. Sweet, attentive, recommended some of her favorite items, and made a point to let us know about all the fresh made items they offer at breakfast. Quick service and service with a smile. Will be back.Parking: Found a spot pretty close to the front. Was surprised by this, but the server did say that this was one of their slower mornings than usual. Probably less parking when it’s busier.

Decided to take my mother here who was visiting from out of the country. The whole experience was a disaster. The server was very rude and the food took forever to come out and it wasn’t very hot.

Amazing pancakes, awesome service, at table preparation for a few of the speciality items. HUGE selection of different pancakes. Fresh squeezed orange juice. I will definitely visit again when in the area.

This was a get-together for my sister in law's and my birthday. They are just a day apart. We try to choose a place we haven't eaten before. This was our first time eating here, but it will not be our last. The Dutch baby was delicious.

Our server Rachel was great and answered any questions I had. The restaurant is spacious. They have many cushy booths rather than uncomfortable hard chairs around tables. My omelette was cheesy, just the way I like it ? my meal came with 3 fluffy buttermilk pancakes. The syrup they use is good too. I enjoyed my coffee and fresh squeezed OJ. They bring water to the table with a 1 liter pitcher to refill yourself so you don’t have to wait for a refill when you’re thirsty. I got one of their handmade stoneware mugs for my wonderful mother in law. I know she will love it!! ♥️

Prices are out of control here. Almost $5 for coffee and more than $7 for hash browns is highway robbery. Paying over $25 for a simple breakfast for one before tip is out of control.

Two of us ate at the bar on a busy weekend. Food took a predictable lengthy time coming out, no problem, but one of us got our food out a full 10 min before the other, not by our server, and when the second meal came out, also not by our server, it was lukewarm like it had been hanging out the whole time it was missing. Our server didn't return for another 20 min so there was nobody to say anything about it to. Just chalked it up to being busy, but at that price point I wouldn't be keen on returning in the hopes it came out better. Juice is nearly $7 for a small juice glass, coffee was almost $5 and while it was in a nice mug, nobody offered refills until we were presented with the check, but not as to-go refill. Obviously we couldn't keep sitting there, there at that point.When we were presented with the check we were being literally pushed out of the way by a group wanting our bar seats who were claiming our seats even before we moved. So I took the check to the front registers where they told me I'm supposed to wait for the server to take it. I explain that people already pounced on our seats and wanted us out so can they please just process it? They made us wait for the server to complete the transaction, another 5ish minutes of standing awkwardly.At $60 for two breakfasts (one pancake and eggs Benedict), the experience overall was a poor value.
