Really like this cafe for home style cooking. I dropped 2 stars because they stopped serving our favourite dish. Bring back the Breakfast Bomb!

Stopped by on our way to Sault Ste. Marie. Short way off Hwy 17. Generous portions, fast friendly service. I tapped the “Cuddles wanted” bell at the cash. Hugs 🤗 were indeed offered and accepted! Fun quotation signs for your entertainment. “Many served, few have died” 🤣

Great spot to stop for a bite. Reviews were great so we thought we would stop here on our way through Espanola. So glad we did! A small cafe with a welcoming vibe. Our waitress was upbeat , friendly and attentive while the food was yummy and plentiful. No skimping on the chicken or bacon on my clubhouse sandwich or the bacon and cheese on hubby’s grilled cheese sandwich. We usually try to find these little known gems when travelling and this one definitely did not disappoint. Kudos!!!!!

It was awesome food, almost no wait. Very friendly staff. I had the breakfast poutine and it was very good even coming from Québec. Honestly if you are passing thru stop by.

Nailed it, I donno what else to say. I walked into this place after trying to find breakfast in Espanola not run by a corporation.
I laughed, I enjoyed, staff is awesome and I love the home feeling with country music in the background.....

Food was ok and service not bad and I did try the butter tarts and they were good but the filling to pastry ratio could be better and they are only open till 2pm which most of us can’t make in to. And in the mall they have a small seating area.
