    Had a great breakfast of 2 eggs, hash-browns, ham and a couple pancakes. Service was friendly, fast and efficient. Ambience reminds me of a small town cafe.Food was cooked to perfection.

    My sisters and I went here to eat. My sister ordered a hamburger and found a hair cooked in to the patty. She ended up getting her meal replaced with no charge.

    Very poor waitress. Extremely bad coffee.. The waitress we encountered was socially one of the worst I have ever seen. We did not feel welcome at all. She never smiled the whole time, acted like she hated her job and that customers were a pain in her butt. Had to ask for second cup of coffee that looked and tasted like it had been run through on the same basket for the 3rd time. No color, taste or flavor of coffee at all. We will never go back. There is no excuse for being treated that way. A restraint will not survive long if these things are not addressed. Food was average, so you better have your service game on or you will just be another statistic. Think how much other business you may have lost and don’t even know it.

    WTF?? So bad…. Came here with my parents on Mother’s Day to try it out. Food was cold. What food wasn’t already cold turned very quickly from the ac blasting over our table. One couple walked out because they (arriving before us) hadn’t received their food but a family (coming in 15 minutes later than us) ordered and received their food. The staff seemed to make to attempt to save grace and just let them walk out. If I could I wouldn’t give them even 1 star. Never going back. Gotta give them props for this I guess: the water was cold.

    Breakfast at noon. If you want breakfast don’t go here during lunch. we’ve tried it twice – both times the pancake was cold, hash browns were not even warm, the bacon was as hard as jerky.
