The cutest little homey cafe! The server was great! The food was amazing and the portions are perfect too! Our server kept checking on us and making sure everything was alright. Prices for the portions were very reasonable, would definitely come back anytime. (French toast combo, Breakfast burrito, two French vanilla coffees.)

Overall great servers and waiters. Great music and environment. Amazing food. Not expensive food a great choice if you're in town. Right next to the bored walk.

Eggs Benedict were over-cooked, potatoes were over-seasoned but pancakes were good and large. Service was attentive but place is small and always busy.

Ordered breakfast. It was scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and potatoes. Flavors seemed off. Coffee was good and server was attentive and kept the cup filled. It was served hot, so I gave it a 3 star. Decor is faded, lots of photos on the walls were all crooked and dusty. Servers were behind the counter complaining about another worker who wasn’t there. Just seemed to have a tired, run down feel.

The manager was very rude & unapologetic There were at least 3 tables open and she told my pregnant wife and I to walk around the block and come back in 15 minutes then proceeded to shut the door in our face.

Great music and ambience! These ladies do a great job of taking care of everyone. Always on top of refills and checking up on others customers from what I saw. Older lady was very nice and redirected people who wanted take out/ coffee down the street to a coffee shop. Great service overall!

Miserable woman running the place. She makes people wait outside until she's ready for them even when the place isn't busy. Witnessed her make an elderly woman stand outside for 20 min while making fun of her for looking in the door. Total power trip and super rude. Been going there couple times a year for the last 10 years, family tradition. Never again.
Frequent visitor of this cafe and it has been nothing but positive experiences! Sometimes they get busy and put a sign up sheet outside and have tables open but once you get inside you realize that they are bussing tables and hand washing glassware. Waiting outside is for a reason! They use that time to catch up with things they are behind on for the best experience! The older waitress is always so lovely to talk to! Always has recommendations for things to do around town. This place gets a bad rep but if you consider the wait you will find a charming ambience!

Rating purely based on the customer service... went in with my kids from the beach & was told we needed pants to be seated. This location is directly across the street from the beach, I don't think it's uncommon for people to be in bathing suits. I then asked if I could just get a coffee to go and she said no, we can't do take out either. So no bathing suits. No to go food or drinks. That's ridiculous & she was extremely rude about it. Not worth trying the food if you can't even make in the door without the service sucking.

Nasty woman running the place. She makes people wait outside until she's ready for them. Witnessed her make an elderly woman stand outside for 20 min while making fun of her to a young waitress. Most of the tables were open. Total power trip. Rude as hell too. Never going back.

The food didn’t taste good at all and i’m surprised it was edible, service was horrible, everyone was rude.

As we arrived a family was leaving because they said the waitress was angry. We looked inside and saw numerous open tables, maybe 2 tables being used. Before we even opened the door she came out and said we had to sign the list and wait 15 mins, there were open tables, we would have been patient. She was not polite. We left, this place sucks, spend your money elsewhere.
