Incredibly charmed. Dad cooking and singing in the back, the family runs the front of house. The space is small, good and old but well kept. The food is smart. Inventive, actually, which is rare in a breakfast joint. Coffee was good, service was excellent, food was amazing.

stopped for lunch, started with the black bean and corn chili (vegetarian) followed by the chicken Boursin sandwich with fruit salad, husband had the roast beef with horseradish sauce sandwich with tortellini salad. School was closed due to the weather and our wait staff was students. They were a pleasure to have waiting on us. Sandwiches were panini style and delicious. Received our lunch quickly, It was quite convenient, easy, and enjoyable. Will be back!!!!

Diamond in the rough. The Cheers of pancake houses. The eggs had flavor, the banana nut pancakes were handcrafted. The coffee was delicious.

We were driving in cold rainy weather and accidentally went into this cafe and we were amazed by the hospitality and delicious food especially we liked soups and sandwiches by the owner himself suggested cooking a dish for our children that is not on the menu and this was also very tasty. We recommend that anyone passing by this cafe stop for a pit stop.

Such a gem of a lunch spot! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, creative, and full of flavor. You can tell everything is made with care. The owner was so kind and went out of his way to make my son a meal that wasn’t even on the menu, which was the sweetest thing. We loved everything we tried and can’t wait to come back. Definitely one of those small-town spots that makes you feel right at home!
