"What a cute old cafe/bar! And a delicious breakfast. There was not one thing on the plate that was bad. Bacon thick and cooked to perfection, eggs done enough, thick toast and crispy hash browns. It seemed like a comfortable local treasure. Would highly recommend it."

"Classic diner food in a historic location. The Special burger and soup was good (even though, I didn't get the soup listed on the board)."
Cory Gant
"My first time eating here. I will definitely come back. The place itself is definitely a throwback in time, which is a good thing. Decent portions and the omelette was great.
The whole place seemed pretty clean, with the restroom in tip top condition too."
