The location is great, along with adequate parking offered. It offers a quaint atmosphere, indoor booth and open space table seating along with an outdoor porch table offered. We really enjoyed the spinach and artichoke dip, the chorizo grits with shrimp were okay - rather greasy but I suppose that’s typical with chorizo. A lot of the grease was puddled on the top of the dish. The eggs over medium were extremely over cooked and chewy so I would recommend adjusting heat temp to avoid this in the future. The gluten free French toast was pretty good — I was extremely happy that they offered gluten free options and several different types of menu items to accommodate various allergies. There weren’t a ton of vegetable or fruit options however. I wouldn’t consider the food something to call home about, but it’s a gluten free quaint little spot with a good location so, I would say it’s convenient and can accommodate various preferences. The coffee was not organic, it was mediocre as far as flavor profile goes, although they did offer Oat Milk for the coffee and organic raw sugars which not all places offer.Dietary restrictions: They do have gluten free bread which is awesome!! There are a few veggie and fruit options available for other dietary restrictions as well. Fruit is limited to berries. The orange juice is not fresh squeezed. They do offer oat milk!Parking: Parking is accessible and spread out near the rear left side of the building. It’s located right off the highway and there are various shops within walking distance along with overflow parking to accommodate.

Got take out from here the other night - we were looking for a healthy-ish option and unfortunately the entire meal was pretty abysmal. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, which were so incredibly salty that they were inedible. Like, hurt your tongue inedible. The beet & goat cheese salad was extremely reminiscent of a bagged grocery store salad but was somehow the least offensive item. The chicken and waffles was completely flavorless. I know neither of those things travel particularly well so I can’t comment much on texture, but the waffle tasted like one you’d get at a hotel continental breakfast. The syrup also nearly had the consistency of water, which was very odd. Overall, very disappointed that I spent money here and would not recommend it.

This place is amazing and has the best atmosphere and food. This was our first time and we will definitely be coming back. The Brazilian French toast was amazing. I highly suggest it. The outdoor waiting area is the best. Enjoying the birds chirping and nice breeze while waiting to be seated you can enjoy a coffee or mimosa.

Food was mediocre. I expected more. When you order a beet and goat cheese salad it should be heavy on both. I had to dig to find it. We were told the kitchen was behind they couldn't seat us for 15 min+ and only a few tables were full.

UPDATE: Ryan gave us our money back so we gave them another try. Very yummy food, service was good, and very yummy peach fizz. Way better experience than easter brunch. Food did take a while to come out, but beer bread and honey butter was a great snack to have before dinner. Will likely be back. Thanks Ryan!literally the worst easter brunch buffet i’ve ever seen. cold food, very few choices, and you couldn’t get your own food and choose how much you wanted. the biscuits were hard, and the gravy was cold and lumpy. very very bad first impression for $25 per person. will not be returning.
If i could leave a negative star review i would, the easter brunch buffet was one of the worst ive ever seen. Ive had better breakfast buffets at a motel 6. 4 options, bacon sausage, french toast and biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were hard and cold, gravy plain and cold, bacon cold, sausage cold and weird, french toast was okay but COLD. This was a $25 buffet. Huge waste of money. Ate half of my frozen meal and left. If the buffet was $5 i wouldnt be complaining. Because that was a .99 cent buffet for sure. Not only that $7 mimosas in a dixie cup…. Not even worth a try.

Cool place BUT on Easter Sunday you don’t take reservations for a special holiday event- and just being real here you told me it found be over 45 minute wait after 10 am. I’d love to come but who would spend their holiday in a 45 minute line? Reservations make it all work- consider this for special events please!

Very good food, excellent bar tender, worth every penny
Visited on Wedesday evening around 7pm and it was not very busy. Quickly seated and drink orders were taken. Menu items were varied but not overwhelming. We had the seared salmon, chicken and waffles, chicken fried steak and shoestring chicken. Several items came with mashed potatoes which were a big hit as well. It took a little while for the food to come out but when it did, the presentation was good, food temp was good and the items were tasty.
SO GOOD! Ya gotta get there! Breakfast sandwich - 5 ⭐️ and THAT BISCUIT?!?! Just go!
