Lovely place to eat for breakfast! Coffee, pastries, sandwiches, crepes...very reasonably priced with a vintage flair!
Kitchen closes at 12 so I have difficulty getting here in time to try it. I came in for a Frappuccino that tasted great ( I'm picky about my mocha to coffee ratio), and they even suggested I call ahead to order kitchen food that I can then pick up even after the kitchen closes. I will have to try that for my next visit. Either way, I'll be back for the coffee.
The owner Connie runs a quality establishment! She cares about her local community and honors military service members in uniform with a 10% military discount! We appreciate you for honoring those who serve.
I've been wanting to try this place for breakfast for a while. I love their dirty chai lattes but had never had food. Today I had two eggs scrambled, two pieces of bacon, a side of mushrooms and a side of avocado. The eggs had a good taste and seemed to be seasoned well, though I did get a large chunk of shell.
The Bacon was the thin type. It had an odd taste that I couldn't quite place. Probably not my favorite bacon but I can see where others might like it.
The avocado was fresh and delicious. It was $1.50 for the serving which was about 1/4 of an avocado.
The disappointing part of the meal was the mushrooms. I think they rang up the eggs similar to maybe a mushroom omelette and the mushrooms were extra, which I was fine with, but for $0.50. I only got four very small mushrooms. So I probably won't get mushrooms again.
They have crepes and sandwiches here which I would like to try next time, when I'm not on a low carb diet. The Gouda grits also sound like they might be fantastic. I'll be back time and time again for the dirty chai!
Service was slow, but that's expectable these days. Waitress was nice, friendly.
The Gouda grits were pretty good! The pigs in a blanket taco was amazing. That smokey bacon with the spinach, feta and eggs was so good, especially the smokey bacon.
Nice atmosphere.
