“My wife and I went for breakfast. I got the poached eggs, hash (their own homemade,) toast and home fries. My wife got French toast, with peanut butter and bananas. It was all delicious and the service was good. We enjoyed our breakfast and would definitely recommend it!
“Awesome breakfast! Loved our spider monkeys perfectly poached eggs, and a side of pancakes that tasted almost like French crepes. Yum! Friendly staff. Fast service. Even the bus boys were smiling and helpful.
