"Holy crap this was the perfect breakfast!! I got the vanilla brioche French toast, that was out of this world. Perfectly cooked, a light orange zest flavor, slightly crispy top. My friends got the pancakes and the eggs+bacon. I tried a bite of the pancakes and those are the best pancakes ive ever tried. I didnt think a pancake could be that good. The vibes here are immaculate. Bright and fresh interior design with equally bright and friendly service. Service was so fast! My coffee cup never ran empty. Thank you so much for a perfect breakfast."

"This place is fantastic! The atmosphere is so cozy. The coffee is amazing (I had decaf and my husband had regular). And you know it’s a good breakfast spot when they give you a pot of cream for your coffee instead of those little plastic cream cups. We ordered the beignets and some breakfast. The beignets were so delicious!! I had the smoke salmon scramble which was very delicious as well. My husband had the eggs and meat with a side pancake which he enjoyed. Overall, great experience and even better food."

"A weekend breakfast here is definitely a good idea. Power up before or after a beach trek, and you'll be fine. This visit we enjoyed a spicy Bloody Maria cocktail, some good coffee, and hearty country fried steak plus the pot roast hash. We enjoyed every bite. Their house made berry-citrus walnut compote is very tasty on toast. The service we received was interesting. One man was a little gruff, but we decided it was just his natural, no-nonsense demeanor. The others with whom we interacted were smiling and pleasant, also their apparently natural demeanor. Love that the restrooms are universal, and they are right at the front door. In fact, the restroom doors are painted a strikingly blue color, so no missing them! Prices are about on par with this vacation town, no complaints. Wheelchair accessible. Plenty of parking in their lot."
