Ok I wasnt wowed by this little eatery. the food was "meh" ( get it anywhere). It wasnt all bad - the service was prompt, coffee was kept flowing and the server deserved a t good tip. as for the food, I ordered the wrong breakfast and had to supplement. it came with one egg, two over cooked bacon and toast. I had to order hash browns and a side of sausage and of course a side of grav y. The server made it right by charging me the regular price for two eggs meat and potatoes. All of this stated it was over priced and I was underwhelmed. I would try it again but only becasue the chicken fried steak that the gentlemen next to me had looked tasty. Unfortunate they earned my rating of "MEH" bu tot be fair very few breakfast spots have earned my highest rating of triple dam skippy-licious.

The Togo order was not bagged.
Host was rushed and didn't ask if I needed anything until after I requested ketchup, and was still rushed.

Hash browns were mashed potatoes inside.

Biscuits and gravy were not actually biscuits.. I should have looked at the pictures first. No flavor. (Pepper in picture was added.

Was told to try this place out because of how good it was, maybe it was an off morning but the food had no flavor, disappointed about the "biscuits" and the hash browns were over priced for size and being undercooked.

Will not return nor suggest to others.

service was great, but the food took an hour to arrive and it was missing half the order. scramble was dry and way overcooked. then there was the no-cash fee, basically a credit card fee I wasn't told about. not a big deal but communication goes a long way. to top it off, they opened the doors to cool it off and I was blasted with cigarette smoke from the people sitting outside. I will never return.

This is my Go To for breakfast. I love the atmosphere - Sherrie is so friendly and accommodating and just so real. Walking in there you feel like a regular - even if you aren't one. This is not some posh place - this is a small town eatery - but the food is GREAT, the service is excellent, and, if you're lucky, you'll get to hear all the juicy local gossip over a steaming cup of coffee. Lol.

Vegetarian options: You've got pancakes and French toast and waffles and omelets, along with oatmeal and hash browns. But if you're looking for egg replacers or vegan bacon or tempeh/seitan/tofu then this is NOT the place for you.

Parking: Huge parking lot for the shopping center with handicap accessible parking. The lot has spaces for all different sizes of cars & trucks and you'll even see an RV parked every now and then.

Biscuits and gravy was stale, bland and not sure if they were biscuits. Chicken noodle soup had no flavor, i got a BLT, bacon was hard, sandwich looked tall or large but all it was, was two layers of thick cut tomatoes. Service was fabulous.. Daughters food was low flavor, bland and cold. All four of us were VERY bothered, not going back. ?

Outstanding. Little cafe from the looks of it. Service was amazing. Food was not only VERY large portions but also oh so delicious. Ordered a full order biscuits and gravy (which I will now be eating for lunch and dinner as well) and the chicken fried steak special. He had the Piggy Omlet. All together, 4 plates came to our table. Omlet was amazing (all eggs cooked perfect), chicken fried steak and sausage gravy took the whole plate. OK, so let me just tell you about these hashbrowns and biscuits. Crispy, fluffy, made by an angel in a green tshirt hashbrowns. Best-dam-taters on the west coast. Melt in your mouth biscuits that could almost be mistaken for southern. Spent some time in Mississippi and Ol Miss needs this recipe. My mouth hole thanks you sir. Keep up the stellar work. BZ

This place used to have the best food. Lately though, it seems they are changing the dishes, using cheaper ingredients. not the best, but not the worst.

We were referred to this hometown breakfast spot by the Safeway gas attendant nearby and were not disappointed. Service was slow, but being Memorial Day w/e and Kyle being the only cook, it was understandable. Lila was fantastic, as well as the entire staff!! Food was excellent, I ordered the country omelette, and my husband ordered another omelette which was also tasty. Couldn’t believe all the customers coming to eat here. Will definitely return if ever in Florence OR again. Yummy Yummy!!!! Donna & Harry

This is as hometown as you are going to get! Small cafe with great service. When you see people pop their head in to see about seating and then leave just for the waitress to run to the door to let them know that they can accommodate if they would like to stay instead of letting them leave, that's amazing service.
We had the same waitress and she was on it with anything we needed and even with things we didn't know we needed at the moment. Food was amazing and we can't wait for our next trip to Florence, because this is definitely where we will be for breakfast every morning.
