I went in for my free breakfast that they sent me for my birthday and ended up having a very long stay with delicious food, in a very comfortable environment. My gal pal and I ended up sitting there for 4 hours drinking coffee and just talking. it's quite a sweet location with great service. The manager is quite a gentleman and super gracious. Wish they had more vegan options. But happy to go to a place that cares about their guests.

Food was great, and the kid's meal is such a good value! I had the small pot roast and it was super tender and delicious. Our waiter, Scott was so knowledgeable and kind. He was busy, but very attentive and friendly throughout. He made the experience really great!
