Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Yummy caramel apple waffle (for me) and Greek benedict for friend. A nice plus is that they have turkey sausage (Yay me - I don't eat pork). Maybe a bit pricey on some things. But the service was very good!

I ordered the Celtic Benedict twice this week. Both times the eggs were extremely overcooked, almost like hard boiled eggs as you can see in the photo I provided. Very disappointing since I look forward to a yolky egg which is expected as the norm with any eggs benedict. The second time I ordered the Celtic benedict, I asked for the hash browns and corned beef hash to be cooked well-done and crispy (they are very mushy otherwise), also requested sausage gravy to be poured over my benedict instead of hollandaise sauce. I was pleased to find that the hashbrowns and corn beef hash were cooked until they were very crispy - simply delicious and both full of flavor! Although the sausage gravy was poured over my Benedict, it tasted more like an Alfredo sauce rather than a sausage gravy. The gravy had absolutely zero pork/bacon flavor and was blandly seasoned with salt and a scant amount of black pepper. Bacon grease is a staple ingredient and flavor in sausage gravy! What’s going on in the kitchen? I’m surprised biscuits and gravy is a standing item on your menu since your sausage gravy is a disappointingly far cry from authentic sausage gravy.

We enjoyed a simple yet satisfying meal here. My wife had a cup of coffee with eggs cooked over hard, crispy hash browns, and a side of Greek toast, all prepared just the way she liked. I went with a bowl of cream of broccoli soup, which was warm, smooth, and comforting. Everything felt fresh and well made, making this a pleasant experience overall.
