We were just passing through on a road trip and lucked out on this little cafe! Can’t recommend this place enough! Prices and service are unbeatable!!!
Great hidden gem when visiting Casper. Will go again. Staff was kind and coffee always full.
Good food and service
It's been a long time since I have been surprised eating in a restaurant. I ordered the corn beef hash and eggs. I received exactly that, presented entirely differently than the way I was expecting the plate to look! A pleasant surprise! You better be hungry if you order this dish!
Relaxing ambience, quick and friendly service, delicious and abundant food, and the coffee was fantastic.This place saved our morning!
What a cute little cafe!!! The food and service are all amazing! So glad we decided to walk around downtown Casper.
Stopped here for the first time on our way through Casper. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was wonderful. We ate breakfast for lunch and it was worth it.
Absolutely killer breakfast. Great prices and huge portions. Loved it.
Horrible management/ownership
I’ve been coming in for a while and every time I come in there is new staff. New waitresses mostly. I am a regular and notice how the owners treat the servers, mostly the female owner not so much the other guy. Maybe that’s why there’s new waitresses every time I come in. If you’re looking at this place for work I wouldn’t recommend it. Just doesn’t seem like any of the staff is happy and the atmosphere seems to be tense and awkward. Not sure if it’s the owners or what.
Ordered 2 skillets. One came out with no egg. Asked for it and the cook who is also the owners wife, basically called us liars and demanded our plates be brought back to her so she could decide for herself. Yup, no egg. So she placed about one egg worth of over cooked scrambled whatever into the skillet and sent it back out. The skillet consisted of about 86% large chunks of bland potato and topped off with a small amount of meats and bland gravy. So noticing that there was no egg was pretty easy. But whatever the customer isn’t always right IG.
The temp in there was about 90 degrees so we were sweating to death.
The menu price for these incredibly small serving sizes was marked at 15…. Which was too high to begin with but when we were rang up after 15 minutes of waiting in the sauna…. The prices were marked up to 17.00 and 17.25.
The skillets were literally the same size as a jimmy dean breakfast bowl and sadly not as good.
I wouldn’t usually write a review about a local business, especially since the male owner is a wonderful guy but being forced to “prove” my eggs were not there and allowing our plates to disappear for 2 minutes and come back with crap eggs added to one of them and the prices being marked up without any notice…. I got to make my notes.

Great food. Although they seem to always be confused on what tables belong to which waitress and have waited ridiculously long times to even place our order. We have tried eating here 3 times and have walked out twice after tables that came in after we did ordered and received their food before we got to place our order. Unorganized and a major lack of communication between staff members. They stood around the register giggling and talking rather than looking and helping each other out.
We came in to eat breakfast this morning. We have been in several times before & previous times we had good service & good food. This morning it was very busy as we expected. There was one very small table by the door across from the bar, a large table to the back & some seats at the bar. We rejected the table by the door as it was pretty small so we took seats at the bar. The young girl who came over asked if we wanted to sit at the bar as there was a table behind us or they could seat us because the bar was usually for single people. The way she approached it and spoke it did not make us feel like she was making sure we were ok with it, my husband & I both felt it was a problem we were wanting to sit there. We gave the menus back and told her if it was a problem we would find somewhere else, not rudely spoken just telling her. She lost out on 2 customers this morning. Yes she was young, no she was not rude but she definitely left us with the impression it was not ok for us to sit there. So we went and spent our money somewhere else.
Everything on the menu is perfect a must try If In
