First timers Small dining room but the wait was fine on. Saturday morning Good menu options and fast service French toast and toasted almond pancakes were great Perfect coffee and reasonable pricing Worth a try !
I wanted to love this place, but I just couldn’t. The water had an awful taste, they serve the same syrup that school cafeterias use (yuck!!), and the pancakes were hard and cold. The bacon was over cooked, but the sausage was good. Home fries lacked flavor and were burnt. Cute place with good service, but unfortunately the food is very subpar. Three stars is generous and based mainly on the service and homey feel of the place. I could not get over the junky syrup they serve - for a “home town cafe” it was garbage syrup that made the bad pancakes that much worse. Will definitely not be returning - much better places out there for breakfast.
This is a very nice place. Quaint is and adequate description. Went for a quick breakfast. Was really impressed with the quality of the food. I ordered an egg sandwich... which i can say the eggs were cooked perfectly. The sandwich was spot on. Friends ordered Berni's Breakfast Bowl and Breakfast Combo.... i am bit particular when it comes to scrambled eggs but those were moist without being runny. The homefries were seasoned well and not overcooked or mushy. These sound like simple things to get right but many places miss the mark. On a side note, not sure where they get their coffee, but it is delicious. I pride myself on my taste in coffee.... a good cup with some cream is ideal.... and they kept filling my cup!! God, I love that!!! If i had one complaint, a friend asked for glass of water and it took three tries to get it. The younger server seemed to be lost in his own world, but i chalk this up to age and lack of experience!! Good help is tough to find these days!! I have friends that have gone for lunch and tell me burgers are a must try item!!! Go here if you want good food and atmosphere without breaking the bank!!
Such a cozy place that feels like you’re eating at a family member’s house. Service is always wonderful & they make food that isn’t on the menu if they have the ingredients. I have a vegetable/seed oil allergy & they cooked my food in butter for me.
Love their fried rigatoni and they have a great grilled cheese with turkey and bacon. I went back a few days ago, I had egg in a hole I believe its called white buttered toast with fried egg in the hole to get two and a side of breakfast sausage. The best breakfast I have ever seen. Delicious. Husband had his usual grilled cheese with turkey and bacon. Alson delicious
a perfect environment to share with friends in the morning and I did it with high school friends, we enjoyed it!! I loved the fireplace 💕 it gave that special touch to the place⚘️
Great local cafe with a nice small town feel. Very good food and the staff is very friendly. Love the pancakes. Definitely recommend and we go here often
My family went here for Christmas eve breakfast. The place is small inside, but we never felt cramped. We (party of 5) we're sat within 10 minutes. Even though the place was busy, the server came over quickly for our drink order. Then food order quite quick after that. Food even came out fast, everything was great, the service, the food and the atmosphere. Best breakfast food and experience I have had in a long time. This is how every restaurant should be.
