What a gem! You can order a three egg bowl with tons of vegetables and salmon on top--a nice big dish that is keto friendly. Quiet local restaurant and cafe. A very nice stop on the way. I only wish they would stay open after 2:00 p.m.

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.

Love this place, food is great, ambiance is great, but I’m not sure what happened this time. Food was still good, but portions shrunk considerably for the surf’s up, which is a major bummer. I even tipped 20% before sitting down and still got shorted, so it wasn’t that. Who knows, maybe an off day, but might go somewhere else when eggs bacon toast potatoes is 15 bucks and you get a pretty light spread.

There are things I liked about this joint: It felt like a shabby 90’s cafe so it did offer some nostalgia. There are a fair amount of vegan choices as well. The food? It, umm, existed. The tofu scramble was way too dry as were the potatoes. The muffin I had, crumbled in my hands because it was so dry. Admittedly, the sausage was good though as was strawberry jam. The service was friendly enough, albeit counter service so… The thing that killed the place for us was the noise. It wasn’t even that busy, and it was just cacophony (Open kitchens are the worst idea ever.) Not only the din of the blender for smoothies and coffee was loud, but it seemed like someone was throwing dishes in the sink from about 10 feet away. It was way too much so we hurried out of there as soon as we were done trying to eat, preferring to drink our tea in the rain than stay in that dining room. If you don’t mind noise, it’s probably an okay breakfast joint.
