Love this place. They had me at fresh cut fries, but everything else is also delicious. Don't forget to check out the creekside dining!

Great space that feels rustic but also spacious and inviting. My omelet was full of flavor, moist, well balanced. Biscuits were amazing, soft and dense. You can sit by the large windows for a stream and woods view.

I stopped by and had the tostada scramble it was super flavorful! and the coffee was fresh and hit the spot. Cozy vibe and great service too, definitely worth it.
Good food, the staff are chill and friendly. Haven't been to many restaurants where I get handed menus and say pick a spot. Recommend this place to anyone that wants some easy breakfast!

I love this place. It’s an old building with lots of history and has a super cozy vibe. I say ignore the bad reviews and critical comments. Check your expectations. This is not a big city place with fast food style service. Service can be slow so get a coffee or tea, a delicious biscuit and enjoy the slow down. ♥️

I've driven past this place countless times and never popped in. Happened to be camping in the area and decided to change that. So glad I did! Friendly staff, cozy interior, and the best chicken noodle soup I've ever had--told them as much, too. Will definitely return!

Absolutely worst food ever. Chicken fried steak wasn't good and the breading was falling off. Breakfast potatoes were burnt to a crisp and black. The beef stew was the worst yet.....inedible beef and was not stew either....it was a watery soup with a whole chunk of corn tossed in along with huge chunks of garlic about half clove size. The hot chocolate was luke warm at best. Hope this place goes out of business. First time here and will never be back. Maybe zig zag inn across the street is better.....it pretty much has to be.

Best breakfast in the area! Always worth a stop on the way up to the mountain. The marionberry pancakes and house breakfast are our favorites. The biscuits are fluffy and buttery, and you can’t beat the jam that comes with them. It’s cozy inside with a raging fire during the cold months.
What can I say? It's a pretty gross, fairly expensive restaurant. When you walk in you'll see cobwebs and dust on all the equipment on the walls, the windows are filthy like they don't clean them and lights are really dirty. None of the chairs were matching and I'm honestly not sure if that's on purpose or completely accidental.
The wait is very long. I was here for 2+ hours and most of that was waiting around. Took a long time to take our order and then even longer to make the incredibly mid and fairly easy to make food.
The food had to be the worst. It's fairly expensive for what it is and it's cooked terribly. I had the chicken fried steak with fries. It comes with vegetables, which are soaked in butter and barely cooked. The chicken fried steak was burnt and the fries were all clumped together. I found a hair in my food as well as one of the other people in my group. I wasn't an outlier, as everyone else agreed it was pretty bad.
PLEASE, if you can, do NOT eat here.

The restaurant needs a good deep clean, the layers of dust look to be years old. The restaurant smelled of smoke due to the lack of exhaust vent. Food was okay, but took a very long time. Was incredibly expensive and not worth the wait. We found a few hairs in the food. I usually don’t write a bad review but I would not return to this restaurant. Hopefully they can do a deep clean, tie their hair back, and install an exhaust hood.

Eggs Benedict was served with eggs already cooled down and the yolk was hard. The Hollandaise tasted like it came from a can. I took two bites and left the restaurant.
