Wonderful service, excellent food and very reasonable prices. I didn’t take a picture of my blueberry muffin before devouring it, but the spinach croissant was delicious. I will definitely be going back to this gem.

On a whim, I ate at this restaurant which is located in a strip mall with a cramped parking lot. Restaurant is sandwiched between 7-11 and a dry cleaner. I came around 1:15pm and was lucky to find parking space. Restaurant closes at 2pm. Restaurant is small, quaint and has a friendly vibe that offers local and good, affordable food. They have outdoor seatings so I sat outdoor to enjoy the sun and fresh air. Ordered a curry chicken sandwich on grilled raisin bread and a spring mix salad with candied walnuts, cranberries, feta cheese and cherry tomatoes. There were two sandwiches that came with a bag of potato chips and a cookie. The curry chicken sandwich filling was piled high. I got full after eating one sandwich and packed the other sandwich to go. As for the salad, I was surprised how generous it was in a large bowl. It too came with a cookie. The salad was fresh, cherry tomatoes tasted like they were freshly picked and sweet. I ate only 1/4 of the salad and packed the rest to go. Waitstaff was attentive and checked on me a few times. This place reminds me that time has stand still, homey place, generous and quality food at a budget friendly price point. You can tell this is a local favorite as silver foxes were here and they know what a good meal is.This place is pet friendly on the outside tables. I will be back to try the breakfast items and baked goods.

This is the BEST place for Breakfast, Brunch & Lunch!! Everything I’ve had is delicious! The biscuits & gravy are the best I’ve ever had! The chili is hearty and perfect. I’ve never had better orange juice either! Oh! And the baskery items… to die for!

The food in my opinion was just above meh but the service was great! From the pretty young girl at the register to the girl that brought out the food, everyone was super pleasant and had a warm, genuine smile. I wasn’t in love with the coffee or food it wasn’t bad but not better then any other coffee house but definitely a nice quaint little nest to have good conversations in a sweet atmosphere.
