“It was a wonderful experience, but there was a wait and there were tables open. From what I could see there were only 3 wait staff. When asked the waitress why so many tables open and people waiting, she replied "problems in the kitchen, coffee maker not working". It's sad because the people who were working did a wonderful job. I think administrations needs to look into making this a more functional working place for workers and customers.“

“Cute! Little locally owned nook to grab breakfast or brunch. Come early for the best assortment of pastries and baked goods.
Seating is for small parties so a definite good idea to call ahead with parties bigger than four or five.
They have an ice cream window to get a quick treat If you don't want to sit inside.
Menu is pretty flexible and there seems to be something for everyone.
I'll definitely be by again.

“Nice establishment friendly people cozy atmosphere“

“I have been going here for a number of years now. I am old school and enjoy the diner experiance. The senior service staff are outstanding. I have noticed latley the new younger servers are full of attitude and just nasty.
I really enjoy the origonal section with the train. I noticed latley when you arrive for a meal the staff shoves you into the new section without asking you if you would like to sit in the diner side. When you tell staff you would like to sit in diner side they get all bent out of shape
I go to the restaurant for the experience not attitude. The service staff up front all stand around and talk and not help the customer. I was in a few weeks ago and a greeter was putting napkins around silverwear and has a nasty attitude because she did not want to let me sit in the diner side.
Its sounds infantile but its the experience of dining. I have cut my amount of time going there now because I am tired of the negative attitude with the young servers. Give me a senior server anyday. They know there job well.

I thought the business should know the customers side.

I enjoy the food.“

“Very rustic! Great staff that were very friendly and helpful! Great little coffee shop with wine and spirits. For the price well worth it.“
