Great place to get breakfast - They have everything you’d associate with breakfast, bacon and eggs, pancakes, sandwiches, bagels with cream cheese! I ordered their blueberry pancakes with breakfast sausages, tasted as you’d expect it to! It was hearty and filling - I did receive one singular pancake that was still a little liquid on the inside, sausages were just a little over. Other than that, food was great! Service was fast, we got sat and received coffee right away. It didn’t take long or us to get our food when we ordered it. We got the bill right when we asked for it! They only take cash here, make sure you get cash before you come and eat. They do have an ATM at the back, but charges a fee to withdraw money. Overall - This is definitely a place to come and check out if you’re ever in the mood for breakfast! Would come again!

I heard about this place because of the movie that was shot there. It was Christmas by Design. We went here for 7:30am. The interior was like you were in the 50´s era. We had the Bram-Fekta breakfast meal with coffees. It was really delicious and very filling. We would recommend this place!
