The food was amazing, the gluten free pancakes were delicious. The best part was our waiter Jason. He anticipated everything we needed, even a to go box. Super helpful. Will definitely go back when we are in town.

Cute breakfast and brunch spot with a bar and live piano music? It was a lovely surprise! A lot of the menu items seemed pricey: up to $18 for a skillet! I settled for a couple eggs, hash browns and the turkey patties. The patties were hand pressed, and so flavourful, soft and different than the usual encased sausage! If you try anything here, get the turkey patties... They're definitely an item I'd order again. I also enjoyed a side of the gluten free pancakes and they were perfectly soft and chewy. This wasn't a gritty mix of flours, they actually tasted like regular pancakes. The serving was a bit generous, but a nice addition. The food gets 4 stars because they didn't have any vegetarian meatless options. The tables were a little messy, but to be expected after a morning rush of diners. Anna our server was so helpful and funny! She brought us fresh coffee and to go cups for our leftovers. She deserves more than 5 stars for service.

Paid a lot of money for supposedly dinner worthy salads. My moms spinach salad had a few measly bits of toppings on it and just hunks of spinach. I have celiac and don’t expect that there won’t be cross contamination but when I ask for my salad to be gluten free with no croutons I don’t think that’s that hard to do. I was in a rush when I picked up my food and didn’t double check. Sure enough my salad had huge slices of bread on it. I can’t just pick that off and be ok. And yes my receipt very clearly says gluten free. I will never go back here again.

Cute little cafe with plenty of coffee shop beverages. The food was reasonably priced, service was quick, and variety was available. They had a few vegetarian options and gluten free bread. Overall the food was well prepared. Only down would be my sandwich was soaked in balsamic vinegar to the point of soggy bread and the coffee was a little burnt. The pumpkin spice latte was amazing though!
