Stopped by mid morning for a bite real quick. Friendly staff. Was seated quickly and serviced quickly. Excellent menu options. Food was prepared well and tasted great. Nice portions. Would definitely recommend.

Annual stop on the way to scout camp — and still one of the best. Menu is big, service is fast (like “food hits the table in five minutes” fast), and breakfast is solid across the board. Pancakes are on the smaller side but fluffy and full of flavor. Potatoes always hit right. Staff is friendly, prices are fair, and they’ve been consistent for years — which matters more than hype. If you’re headed north and need a real sit-down breakfast that won’t wreck your schedule, this is the move.

This friendly bustling owner run spot is a sleepy gem, at least to us. A Facebook post caught our attention and we weathered the pretty snow to check it out. Upon entering, it was filled to capacity but as always, timing is everything and we got seated immediately in a cozy nook by the front door without even a whisper of a breeze from outside. Holiday decor makes the space festive with happy chatter throughout. The owner stopped by to introduce themselves, just the right amount of interaction for those who are not social butterflies. Now the food, home cooked goodness on a plate for all three items we tried. Steak tip eggs Benedict was perfectly cook, runny luscious yolk, seasoned Hollandaise sauce blanketing both eggs and accompanied by the tastiest tater tots. Flecked with seasoning, crispy outside with a fluffy interior, these were the highlight of the meal. Second dish was the red velvet pancake stack, 2 generous but not overwhelming cakes, topped with whipped cream, powder sugar dusted and flagged with a ginger bread cookie. The plate was also loaded with scrambled eggs, chunky home fries, sausage and an adorable melon slice. As we were nursing our drinks (coffee for me and soda for my BF), the owner dropped off a luxurious, still warm cinnamon roll, dolloped with a cream cheese frosting and what I believe was caramel drizzle. Decadent does not due it justice. We each took a bite and threw in the white flag of surrender, taking it home to indulge on later with an ice cold milk or a black coffee. We will definitely be back!

This is literally the best breakfast I’ve had in at least a decade. I was starving and their service and drinks were great and their food was freaking amazing. Our new favorite spot.

I had the best Bloody Mary ever!!!! I also asked for two poached eggs. They gave me three. Then they said one of the eggs was overcooked so they gave me 2 more. They really care about customer satisfaction.

It’s clear that the owners are invested in making your experience a great one. The menu is extensive with very creative items, making it hard to select just one thing! Loved the atmosphere and the food was simply delicious and perfect. Go there!

Reviewing to bookmark for next time traveling through: we had the Crossfitter and the special veggie skillet that were amazing. Even the sides were spectacular: my husband loved the fluffy homemade cornbread and I especially loved the sweet popatoes hash and the yogurt parfait sides. I wish we were not driving on the highway so we could try their BLOODY MARY FLIGHT!!

Best breakfast around! Everything is so good and taste homemade and fresh. We got the churros which are amazing. My daughter gets the pancakes- yummy. We also love the Sammie’s wrap. The cheese sauce it comes with is sooo good. I had to croissant breakfast sandwich and it was perfection. Everything we’ve had from here is great and has such a pretty presentation.

Great find! Decided to finally stop in and check this place out and it was a very pleasurable stop, the fools was great as well as tge service. Every employee greeted us with a smile and the food came out in a reasonable time and everything was as hot as can be, it was obvious that nothing was sitting on a headlamp, this was fresh cooked and served. We will be going back for sure!
