“ A few weeks ago, my buddy and I wanted to find something new to try. I got on yelp and saw that this had recently opened. The first thing I noticed right away was how friendly and inviting the staff was. We sat outside, and our server Cassidy waited on us right away. I went with The hungry man it comes with two eggs and your choice of meat. I went with Sausage, and it comes with potatoes. I also got with my breakfast an English muffin that came with strawberry jam or preserves, not sure what. It was all I know it was out of this work good, Everything was great service speed of getting food. ”
“ The food was great! Got the Crab cake Benedict and eggs Benedict. Chai tea latte was excellent as well. I'll have to try the coffee next time I'm there and will definitely be back to try this place again!

“ I can't say enough good things about this place! My son took me there for a weekday brunch and I may have had the best Eggs Benedict I've ever had. It was perfect and I love how they grill the English muffins so they're a little crisp. I substituted the potatoes it comes with for a fruit cup and again, best fruit cup I've had in a restaurant! No hard chunks of bland under-ripe Honeydew or Cantelope with 3 blueberries thrown in. Oh no, this cup had all the berries and slices of banana! Perfect! My son had the fish n chips and said it was delicious perfectly cooked fish. Very crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. He really liked the fries too. I tried one. I think they season them w something because we're exceptionally tasty! Our server was great too. Very reasonable prices. I will be bringing my friends here soon! ”
