    (Breakfast review only). Unique, surprising restaurant located in a rural residential area. (I believe they have a special permit exempting them to run restaurant in residential area via property is a historical site). Parking is in a dirt lot next to a church, where you then walk down a very narrow wooden bridge to the restaurant site. Bridge is NOT wheelchair friendly. Moderately priced. The restaurant itself sits on a camping site. Inside is ample seating with a larger room in a separate room for bigger parties. Music is played from numerous wall mounted TVs, so the sound is bit off. Owners are friendly. Staff is attentive, but the breakfast was blander than a sedated Al Gore. Absolutely no spice, no flavor, you could hear the hashbrowns begging to be cooked in salted butter. Eggs Benedict were tart, too much lemon, which soaked into the toast and made it into a citrus scone. The side order toast was well done. And the coffee, which seemed a pour over, was more bitter than Hillary Clinton on her best day. No bueno. Hopefully, the food will improve because it's a cute place with an interesting history and I want them to succeed, but when you have food this shockingly bland, someone has to say something. This isn't a nursing home or hospital, right? Bland food would be expected there to avoid upsetting people's health. This is a restaurant. Nobody here is in need of bland food unless they asked for it. Almost every table had asked for hot sauce, what does that tell you? If I owned this place I'd be mad if the cook I hired was serving such bland food and bitter coffee. The site also features GLAMPING.
