    The ratings brought me here.

    Pros: Outside seating on a beautiful summer day. Music is played outside as well. I had the Backstreet's One of a Kind Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast. It was delicious- but might be a sweet overload if you don't order a side. I also ordered a scrambled egg with mozzarella, standard. The coffee was good.

    Cons: Waiting time. We received our menus and drinks right away, but for everything else we had to wait. There were only 2 waitresses and a full restaurant (inside and outside). We tried to be patient due to this, but 2 hours for breakfast is not acceptable. By the end of out visit, we had to walk into the restaurant to pay for our meal because we were tired of waiting.

    It was a good breakfast, but the waiting (and drive) is not worth it.

    What a cute, great breakfast place. It was nice outside so we actually were able to eat at their little outside dining section. I had a waffle with berries and my boyfriend had the traditional Irish breakfast which looked delicious. We'll be back again for sure. Great food and nice owners!

    My friends and I came to this cafe as a reunion of sorts after we went our separate ways for graduate school. We wanted a hometown feeling cafe with good food. Upon sitting down, the menu is small, but there are a lot of options from pancakes to burgers. Since it was just a few days after New Years, most of us were looking for healthy options, which were easy to find since eggs can be substituted with egg whites.

    About 15 minutes after placing an order, we received our food and were very excited to dig it since everything looked so good. I ordered a taylor ham, egg, and cheese sandwich, which was great - roll was fresh and the taylor ham helping was generous. My friends were happy with their omelettes, but there seemed to be a lot left to be desired with the pancakes. I tried some myself and they were so dry that you needed a lot of syrup to counter it.

    After we were served our food, the service from the staff seemed to go downhill. There were about 2 waitresses running around taking orders from the tables, answering the phones, and preparing drinks. Once lunch hour hit, we waited at our tables for 20 minutes chatting before we decided to finally get up to the counter and ask for our check.

    Overall, I'm not sure I'd be running to come back to this cafe since there are so many diners in the area, but it was nice to support a local business and try someplace new!

    Sorry but I just dont see it.  Place is nice people are nice but the food isnt that great at all.  Home fries are straight up frozen taste to them. All the food is bland. Sad since this place has so much potential.  They need to bring in a real chef or somthing. I have been here a bunch of times in hope that somthing will change but nothing did so I have stopped.
