    Cute little breakfast spot, the food was delish, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Ate there this morning and gonna return tomorrow morning too! I would definitely recommend stopping in for breakfast there.

    Very disappointing in many areas, but first, the good thing about this place... Nothing!!
    Once we entered, I had the impression it may be a good choice due to the fact most customers where "mature" in age. That premonition changed very quickly once seated. Our waitress (the only one on duty)
    made several critical errors.
    The main issue was her lack of sanitation. WAITRESS went outside of the restaurant a on three occasions to pet a dog of a homeless person loitering near the entrance, then NOT WASHING HANDS BEFORE RETURNING TO SERVE CUSTOMERS!!!
    Never asked if we needed anything or inquired if we where enjoying our meal. Waiteress spent more time setting and chatting with customer friends.
    The quality of food was poor, the price for a platter is staggering. I paid $ 17 dollars for 2 eggs, bacon and two pancakes. Hash browns or potatoes nor toast where included in price.
    Bus boy used same towel the clean chairs and eating surface. Bus boy also touched the eating part of spoon, fork and knife while setting the table. Never did I witness busboy handling the utensils with the handles.
    No employee wore gloves. Owner and or cook came from kitchen and used a dining room chair as a ladder to adjust a window sign but never had the chair cleaned before allow customers to be seated.
    Place is gross!!! I would not recommend dinning here to anyone!!
    I so much hate providing such a negative review, but this review is of my personal experience of 7/21/19

    16 DOLLARS for DINER EGGS AND BACON??? NO NO NO.. I know we have money in this town, but being ripped-off is never ok, nor a good feeling. The food is very average diner food. The floors were sticky, etc. The service was charming, no question, but the price was not even on this planet for that quality of food.

    The food is mediocre diner food for 2x what you could find at other hole in the wall diners. The bacon was burned to a crisp and the hash browns barely better than frozen grocery store kind. The waffles are not fluffy but thin and crisp.  $60 breakfast for 3 people. This is just blocks away from our house so I was hoping for more. We took our almost 3 year old out for breakfast. We were relishing in how well behaved he was - coloring and excited to talk about the pictures on the wall (trains!) and buses outside - and enjoying our rare family time. The woman came over to deliver our food and said "maybe he could use his inside voices now." We were stunned. There were people at the bar but only one other table seated in the restaurant. There had been no tantrums. No outbursts.  No yelling. There was only pure joy and excitement, and we were proud of his behavior. The happiness and giggles of a child should be contagious and encouraged. I am sad that a place that would want that squashed is in this community.  When I approached her about her comment she tried to judge our parenting and told me that she tells people with autism to behave. It takes a village and this is not a place I want in our backyard.

    Outstanding breakfast value. I had scrambled eggs with hash browns and cinnamon toast. The eggs were light and fluffy and the hash browns were crispy and full of flavor. I loved the special touch with the cinnamon toast. Service was excellent and the setting was relaxed.
