Hidden gem in Fredericksburg. Seems to be a local favorite. Great selection of food and drinks. Small capacity but worth the wait if crowded.

What an amazing experience it was to discover this place. We had a fabulous brunch, and I must say I am not usually a brunch fan. My tofu scramble burrito was genius and my wife's smoked salmon was delicious and accompanied by the expected (capers) and unexpected (Pico d gallo). Cute, cozy, and unassuming interior and attentive, if busy, staff. We will be back!

Best roast beef sandwich I've had in ages. And the homemade fries are bomb!

I took my friends from out of town here for dinner because I enjoyed brunch, so assumed dinner should be good too. I hope this review isn’t seen as offensive but rather feedback to improve service and operations. bringing us here for dinner was a mistake (although a lesson for the future) that was slightly embarrassing. The chicken was over seasoned, mashed potatoes watered down, and burger fell apart with the sogginess and lacking taste. The lettuce from the salad were the yellow part, no green…We asked for fries, even discussing them prior to deciding to set on them for our side but were given another side instead (onion rings). They were extra greasy and tasteless. We asked for the sides we actually selected but were much later advised the frier didn’t work (after we were well over ready to ask for the check). I think communication could have been better prior to providing us the onion rings, as it was a hit obvious it was known it wasn’t an option. Overall, it was disappointing. Maybe it was just a one time negative experience but each interaction is important—it wasn’t just one mistake but several. I’ll try this place again at some point, just not any time soon.

Best Rueben sandwich around! Always had good food and service for the 10 years I've been going. Their beer selection is beyond reproach as they recently had Franziskaner on tap. Weekend brunch can't be beat but you will need a reservation.

Bar/Food/Service all top notch. Ate there for brunch 1/1/24 and thoroughly enjoyed our morning. The menu ranges from the good old standards, to innovative specials, and elevated ingredients. Pricing is more than fair for the portions they serve, and there's no "downtown extra costs" b/c it's location. Service and bar are fast, friendly, and personable. Very happy we spent New Year's Day here. Highly recommended.
