What a lovely, cosy, family atmosphere perfect for a great breakfast to start into the day. Enjoyed it twice in a row.

Really cozy eatery with friendly staff. Came here for a quick breakfast and couldn't decide between the omelette or the French toast, so I got BOTH! Hahaha. The French toast was soft and moist on the inside (the soak it overnight so your not eating some dry piece of bread masquerading as French toast), the berries were fresh, and the syrup sweet without being overly sweet. Perfection. The omelette was delicious. The home fries were a mix of sweet potato and Idaho potatoes-yum! Overall, it was a great experience. Will be back for sure.

Cute place interesting vegetarian food options! But I would say it is not vegan friendly. Also options needed to be modified to make them vegan even the impossible burger has to be ordered with no bun. Again seems nice for non-vegans but wasn’t a great fit for us.

As soon as we put our name on the list when we arrived here for brunch today, we started having issues. We waited more than forty-five minutes for a table, we went in to inquire when those who came in after us were seated right away, we were shown the waiting list where our name was skipped over several times. Not a good start! A member of our party has a severe food allergy that, should it be consumed, necessitates a visit to the hospital. The waiter stated that "they cannot guarantee cross-contamination but can ask the kitchen". Are you kidding me with this complete disregard and negligence? Aside for the rudeness with which we receive, our food was mediocre at best. DO NOT COME HERE! The culinary scene in Portland is incredible, and the locals threat their visitors with dignity and respect. We should have walked out and never spent our hard earned money here.

Fun cozy breakfast place with omelettes on the menu, pastries, and yummy toast. Amazing looking cookies that we'll have to go back for. Very friendly wait staff. You made need to wait to get a table, but worth it.Vegetarian options: Florentine omelette

I gave this 3 stars because I'm trying to keep it real. I loved my experience here, but it's not a four or five star place, ya know. It's a little gem we discovered on accident, walking around one weekend day. The food was not the most spectacular thing ever or anything, but it was good and I liked it. It was a good brunch. I had a great chai tea. The vibe is sort of like being at a friend's house and the food is good. I like it!

Only have been twice after almost a decade of driving and walking by it. Weird hours kinda. Some tasty plates. Well thought out yet somewhat unusual combinations that complement themselves on texture and flavor. Bloody mary was good. The prices were a little high on some of the standard offerings like a burger or a simple egg-based breakfast plate. The vibe is pretty nice too. Kinda like being in a friend's living room in a way. Server was about fine. No real complaints, nothing above & beyond. One of the FOH members was this asian chick with glasses who was randomly and unreasonably rude? Not the regular hostess, she's great. This one was kinda bussing and maybe running plates or something. On two different interactions that visit, she was just very inhospitable and impolite on a personal 1-on-1 interaction. Probably having a bad day/year/life? But zero reason to take it out on a customer. Probably wont be back, but not gonna dis-recommend the place to others either.

My husband and I ate here for brunch and it was awesome! Great food and warm, welcoming staff and atmosphere. We learned they were going to start serving dinner as well so we went back and it was also superb! Definitely will be coming back. It's just a really great place with a cozy vibe and wonderful people.
