Food is quite subpar and pricey for its quality. Atmosphere is great

Fantastic eggs Benedict, in a lovely lush space

One of service reasons we came, was for the potatoes that everyone raved about. I love potatoes... so I said let's go. My husband loved his meal and potatoes. I had eggs Benedict and they were fabulous... but fir me the potatoes were too heavy with seasoning. Liked the seasoning taste... but just so much.

Beautiful place, tasty food. However, I could not cut my eggs benedict with the plastic knife provided as cutlery and I am a grown man. My eggs ended up a mess on leathery English muffins and I had to put the whole lunch into a takeout box so that I could wrestle with it at home with proper cutlery. If I couldn't cut my food nobody can. The owners please take note and keep trying their own dishes. For $22 a major disappointment.

For the next stop on Tour de Fry (follow me for fry reviews)

Fries = Wow! These are fantastic. The crispy texture is on par. The seasoning is perfect, not too heavy, week distributed. Even when they were cold, the texture was fantastic.

Value = comes with the sammich, and definitely worth it compared to other sammich shops around town

Sadly weekends felt impossible to get a table and service was super slow. But if you go off peak it's worth it imo. I'd come again.

This nursery is spacious, and a wonderful garden vibe throughout. Food and menu is a perfect plant ? esthetic. Buy plants, or flowers and stop by the Cafe for sandwich or salad. Koi Pond is such a treasure

This place has become incredibly expensive. Over $100 for an egg breakfast for 2 adults and 3 little kids seems extreme. Food is okay, but not remarkable in any way. Service is very mixed and sometimes unwelcoming. The only reason we continue to visit is we like the garden center and the kids enjoy the koi pond. But we do wish the cafe would provide an affordable, delicious and friendly meal for loyal customers.

Great place to escape. Plenty of seating. Great food but a tad expensive. I had the mushroom burger, a tiny but spicy and the chicken burger. They both came with tasty fries.

Vegetarian options: The mushroom burger was great. A little spicy but not overly.

Simple menu, some pastries, good coffee, and beverage choices. It is a fun place to be able to eat and then buy plants and gardening tools.

Good place to grab a bite and some coffee. Calming, comfortable atmosphere amongst the plants. Kids love the koi, too.

Cute cafe among gorgeous plants but crazy busy and getting a table is fierce competition. Macchiato was delicious. Breakfast was extremely expensive and disappointing. Ordered the veggie hash - it can out so salty it was almost inedible. The eggs were overcooked, small portion too. For almost $100 for a casual breakfast for 2 people on paper plates- we will NOT be back!

The food was incredible. I had a BLT Chicken Sandwich. The fries were crispy and delicious, the chicken was tender and juicy, and the bacon was crisp but still easy to bite. Tomatoes added flavor but didn't water down the sandwich (an issue afflictibg many lesser BLTs).Highly recommend if you are in the area.
