A couple servers were unfriendly and bordered on rude. The food was forgettable and took so long to get. Overpriced for what I got. Won’t be returning, would not recommend.

I wanted to love this place because hubby hyped it up and it appears everyone in our group ordered chicken and waffles except me and my son. I guess it's safe to say the chicken and waffles were probably good. My ginger latte was warm but made pretty. I had the chicken and grits with scrambled eggs. My eggs were old and cold, grits was warm chicken fried too hard. The side of kale and onions were delicious. My son had a kid plate of pancake, bacon and eggs. His eggs were scrambled and old. His pancake was a generous serving, don't think he needed the big dollop of butter so I quickly removed it. He enjoyed his bacon. He's 4 he ate most of food but couldn't eat even even half of the pancake. We chatted with our table mates mostly. Our server didn't come back in time for me to complain I actually was waiting for over 10 minutes for her to return with my silverware so maybe that's why my grits were warm? I wind up seeing a stack in the corner and got up and got me a set when I realized she may have forgotten. The place was packed and seems to be a popular choice amongst the locals as well as us visitingParking: Small parking options for what appeared to be a popular place.

Cool venue, good food & the coffee is on point. You pay at counter & do not have a waiter.

The food and service was great. My daughter and I ordered flap jacks for the younger kid which came with bacon and eggs. The teens ordered waffles and bacon and potatoes. My daughter had steak eggs and potatoes. I had the chicken and waffles. Chicken was friend to perfection. I really enjoyed the food and I will definitely go back and the pineapple mimosas was everything. ?Nice experience make sure y'all try it out ???

I really liked this restaurant. The chicken and waffle was really good. One person in our party wasn’t happy with the biscuits. I can’t say personally. Eggs looked good. Americano coffee was a little strong for my liking but not others I’ve had. Would go back.

What a unique place. Very chill vibes. Highly recommend!

Cool vibe. Good coffees. Great service. But, the food was disappointing. And I am judging the breakfast by the biscuits. We are in the south, right? Looked great but couldn't get a fork through them. I tried making one a biscuit and gravy, but ended up just eating some of the gravy with the eggs, neither were hot, but tasted fine, and I was hungry. I was going to try the other biscuit as a dunker, but I couldn't cut through it. Finished a 2nd cappuccino, which was good and filled me up for the morning. I'll go back for the good coffee here because it is convenient and the staff is so nice!

I have had this place several times now, and I love the atmosphere and overall experience of it. The food really is nothing to write home about though. Pretty uninspiring flavors and overall execution of the dishes. Never offensive by any means, but meh, reasonable, acceptable, etc.

for it to be as slow as it was at 1pm you wouldn’t expect an hour and a half wait on food. also, some of the staff was rude.

So, not a fan of the ordering system. Very, very long to order then the food took 30-40 minutes to come out. Other than the main dining room, it’s pretty sketchy seating. Food was very good, not great. Had fried chicken and grits. Chicken hot, grits were lukewarm. Pickled onion and kale was very good. So, worth a try.
