What a quaint breakfast spot. I ate here last month and had a lovely time. The ambience is really cozy and they play stellar music (oldies). I got the pancakes with peanut butter and bananas.

Food was ok. Portion sizes were quite large if you’re looking for volume. Prices seemed a bit high for the quality of the food. One of the orders came out wrong but was fixed pretty quickly.

Absolutely delicious and the fastest table delivery ever. It was a large plate of food but neither of us had trouble finishing our meals. Didn’t need lunch, and are considering skipping dinner as well. I’m sure we’ll be back for more yummy breakfasts. We miget get brave and even try lunch sometime.
