Excellent omelette. Great coffee! Gluten free pancakes are amazing! Beautiful ambiance! Outdoor seating too! Really crowded in the summer! This is our ultimate favorite breakfast and lunch restaurant. We love everything about this place! Occasionally patrons are way too loud. Go early if you want to avoid the noise. They have the best baked goods ever!

Our waitress was so kind and we had a great experience. The chai latte was the best chai I’ve ever had in my life! I loved the buratta salad and the quiche.

This is an absolutely fantastic place for either breakfast or lunch (my wife and I have eaten both here). Excellent service, good food, generous portions, and reasonable prices. The scrambled eggs and pancake breakfasts were wonderful. Also lots of fresh baked goods for dessert. For lunch the smoked turkey sandwiches, salad, and fries were terrific. A scone for dessert hit the spot. They don't take reservations and get quite busy. Parking can be a problem, but if that happens just park in the Hoffman's Ice Cream lot across the street (Hoffman's doesn't open until after this restaurant is closed). Highly recommend this restaurant for a great breakfast or lunch. Plenty of outside seating in addition to inside. This is also a very family friendly restaurant and perfect for kids .

Had a great lunch 2 weeks ago can't wait to go again. I had the Croquet Monsieur with truffle parmesan fries. I normally don't eat fries but these were so good the Croquet was fantastic also! My wife had the Roasted Stuffed Sweet Potato and she loved it also. The staff also handled a crazy customer with profession.

Great breakfast, Cafe. The porkroll and cheese sandwich is just as expected. The duck hash is out of this world. They have a unique selection of teas delivered on a nice tea kettle. Prices are reasonable as well. We will return

We went for brunch prior to seeing a show at Spring Lake theater. Earl gray honey latte was so good! Duck confit and Jerry's favorite hash browns were tasty. Also tasted a short stack of the Marigold pancakes, which were yummy. I would definitely go back. Highly recommend.
