I completely agree that this place only cares about locals. My husband and I are from out of town and walked in on a Monday around 1pm. We said hello to a waitress and she simply looked us up and down without saying a word. We found a table and she brought menus and literally dropped the rolled silverware on the table. A new waitress took our order and was kind. We waited over 20 minutes for a BLT and burger that were inedible. When we brought it to their attention we had been waiting that long, the first woman barked at my husband about it being busy. (It wasn’t. At all.) The burger was gray and the bun was soaked with juice. The mayo on both of our meals looked curdled. We took it to go and tossed it in the trash at a gas station. It was all so bad, it was almost humorous. To be fair, the fries were decent! Lesson learned that unless you live in Mineral Point, avoid this place if you can.

I knew when my coffee was partially transparent that it was going to be rough. The coffee was very watered down, the hollandaise for the eggs Benedict was extremely salty, and the corned beef hash was burnt. My omelette was okay, but not great. Waitress offered more coffee and then forgot to bring it, though I suppose it may have been a good thing since it was so watery. On the plus side, prices were very low.

The service and food is always great here. Food is hot, made to order and correct when it gets to your table. It’s a casual atmosphere with many food options at a good price. It’s one of my favorite places to eat in the area.

Our First time here. We tried other times but they had already closed. It's decorated very cute. They have a little play area for the little ones which I thought was nice. I ordered the chicken strips which was a good size the cheeseburger was also good. Would go back again.

It’s an interesting place to go to. I really like the interior decorations. The food is average. What I ordered was a little uncooked (hash browns and pancakes). There was a little batter still on the side of my pancake and the hash browns were not very cooked at all. The waitress messed up my order and I received sunny side up instead of scrambled, which wasn’t the end of the world. She did check up on us multiple times to make sure we were enjoying our food. The wait time was normal.

Stop here passing through on a weekend trip. Stopped for breakfast food was decent it had my usual menu items I would order. The wait was a bit lengthy and maybe not worth the end result when considering that it isn't the most budget friendly place to eat. I order an omelet which was on special came with hashbrowns and toast and was about $10, but the regular price would cost 12 bucks

The food was really good especially the fries! Wait staff was friendly and attentive.Everything was very loud due to the acoustics in the room. Not a great idea to put a children's play area in a room that amplifies noise. My rating was so low because the prices on my receipt were higher than what was listed on the menu. That's not honest business. I won't be returning here.
