We stopped by on our way from Portland to Crater Lake and tried the Morning Star and Northern Light. It was honestly the best breakfast I’ve had in a while (even the fruit was sooo good!). The servers were all kind and welcoming, and the quiet atmosphere combined with the sunny weather made it perfect. If I come back to Eugene, I’d definitely love to visit again.

What a lovely spot for breakfast! My table had French toast, eggs Benedict and a table pancake. All of it was delicious! The coffee was also especially good and well brewed. Service was fast, friendly and very attentive.
Special shoutout to Dominic who was a solo server while I was there and managed to keep a full house of tables happy!
I don’t live in Eugene but next time I visit I’ll be back here again!

I’ve been coming here for a few years and the food used to be okay. A bit over priced but not outrageous for what you typically expect from an attempted hipster joint near campus. I went today for my birthday and ordered the Spanish dancer omelet which is what I usually get. It was drowned in pico and completely inedible. So spicey and soggy it was like trying to eat a jar of salsa straight. The waitress didn’t come back to our table until everyone else was already done eating. So when they offered to remake it of course I said no. Why would I want to sit and wait forever to eat alone holding up everyone else? They refused to take it off the bill. I paid almost $20 for a jar of salsa I couldn’t eat. I definitely won’t be back.

Let me start by saying: you will pay too much for mediocre. I ordered the Big Easy Benedict, promised Cajun hollandaise with eggs, cheddar, tomato, and spinach on English muffins—for $6.25, which on paper looks reasonable. But the execution? Two underwhelming poached eggs that were barely warm, spinach that tasted wilted, and hollandaise sauce so odd I suspect it was straight out of a jar.
My companion had the Spanish Dancer scramble (three eggs mixed with peppers, onions, mild chile, salsa and cotija)—priced at $8.75. Instead of vibrant flavors, we got bland soggy eggs drowning in salty salsa. I’ve had tastier microwaved eggs that cost a quarter of that.
Now, about the staff “service”:
We waited 20 minutes for menus, during which our table got moved and the staff barely glanced our way.
It took another 15 minutes to get water and coffee, which arrived lukewarm and half-filled. Loyal Google reviewers often mention friendly and prompt waiter, but apparently everyone else had a good day.
When we politely asked to fix the Benedict, our server shrugged and muttered, “That’s just how it comes.” No apologies. No offer to remake.

Probably the best breakfast place in Eugene. The Northern Lights is so good. I've never had better Eggs Benedict & sweet potato fries in my life. I've taken a couple people here just to see their reactions upon eating these masterpieces. Staff is wonderful too!

Breakfast was great as usual. Wonderful coffee and beat the crowd on a cool and rainy Eugene morning. Hostess/waitress was great!
One of my favorite places to get Animal( eggs) house Benedict. French toast with the custard is a must.

2 years ago I brought my mom to this place and it was phenomenal! But today that was not the case. The Hollandaise sauce tasted like nothing but yolk, everything was super under seasoned. The home fries didn’t have hardly any salt. The scramble was also not seasoned. Our server was on her phone and eating we had to get up to get her attention to order, to ask for an extra plate and again to ask for a box. For a $50 breakfast we left super disappointed :/

I’ve taken myself on a self date two times after class. They do the eggs on their eggs Benedict’s perfect! The blond waitress remembered me from last time and remembered my drink order! Very good, fast and attentive service.

Phenomenal food! Breakfast and brunch classics done exceptionally well, and with some unique twists.
