“Even with a completely full parking lot they were able to seat us in 10 mins.I got the strawberry banana Dutch baby and it was absolutely for the wait 20 minute wait for it to cook. It had what looked like a full banana and 2 cups of fresh strawberries on top along with whip cream and a strawberry syrup. Also had a coffee and that was pretty standard, no complaints.My wife got a Northwoods hashbrown and she said it was also very delicious and filling. She also got an OJ that was very fresh, I think they squeezed it today. A little too pulpy in our opinion but still very good.Definitely beats going to the big franchises if you are willing to wait a little longer for food to come and pay a little more.Overall the bill came to just shy of $50 for the 2 of us.“
“Love this place! Coffee/pastries a level up from most coffee shops or bakeries. The good is fresh, fast and tasty!Parking: There is street parking on Snelling and also a private lot behind the store.Kid-friendliness: Special chairs and warm welcome to children. Owner and staff very kind/friendly!“
“It doesn’t get much better than this for a classic diner breakfast. The location is small and extremely busy, for good reason, so try to get here early. We got here around 7 am on a Sunday, and were able to get a seat right away. But when we were leaving there was a line out the door.The food here hits all the right marks for diner breakfast. I got the country fried steak and eggs, and everything was exceptional. Steak was cooked perfectly and the hash browns were extremely crispy. My wife got the corned beef hash, which was also excellent. We shared the cinnamon roll, which was massive. With how big the portion sizes are here, you’re bound to leave full. And to top it all off the prices are so cheap! All of this cost us around $30, which is unheard of for eating out anywhere near the Twin Cities.“
“Great place serving up a variety of pancake styles. From Dutch babies to crepes they have every that breakfast pan cake you can ask for. The service was incredible and all our food tasted good. I highly recommend the 49ers if you like an eggy style flap Jack. If you are a chorizo fan you can't do wrong with Northwoods hash hash browns.“
“When you walk in you will see a lot of pictures, art, knick knacks which gives this diner a great ambiance and a lot to look at. The food all came out delicious.No parking lot so you will need to find street parking and walk to restaurant.Kid friendly.“
“I went on a Sunday for brunch with a friend. The food is very yummy. I got the berry waffle and although there was only one waffle, it was huge. I love the berry to whip cream ratio. I also like the fact that they have you order at the counter and then they bring the food to you which makes the process easier and more efficient. I would recommend it if you’re in the area.Parking: Plenty of lot and street parking.“
“Hidden gem! We are visiting and wanted a nice homey-feeling breakfast and found Hovie’s. The waitstaff were very nice and attentive. The food is GREAT! It was exactly what we were craving. They prefer you pay with cash, so make sure you take some!“
