“ Truly excellent food served in abundant portions by friendly, efficient servers. Pancakes, crepes, and Dutch baby were all superior. The omelette was a bit spongy, but the mushroom sherry topping was delish. If you come during a popular time and noon on Sunday is a popular time, expect a long wait the dining room is relatively small. ”

“ Loved it! Looks and feels just like it must have in the 1960s, yet clean as a whistle including the decorative plates on the wall!. Dutch Baby, crepes, and eggs were all perfectly cooked and seasoned. Service was great. I wish we had a location just like this in Vancouver. ”
“ First time here and WOW! The food was amazing! The portion size unreal! But then came the flavor! Absolutely ! We order the Irish Omlette, Vegetable Omlette, sour dough and pineapple pancakes. All were delicious! This place is a MOST VISIT if youre in the area between 7am and 3pm Wednesday to Sunday! ”
“ Took my daughter here for her birthday for brunch. There was a bit of a wait to be seated, but that was expected. The food was really quick, and very good. The whipped cream...best Ive ever had! My daughter got chocolate chip pancakes, and she loved it! Wasnt too sweet, and it was a huge plateful. I got the bacon waffles. Texture was perfect. Not too soft, not too crispy. Sausage links were delicious. My partner got an omelet, and it was perfect for him as well. Would love to come back and try out other flavors One huge thing to mention, this building is not ADA accessible. I was thinking about bringing my 95 year old grandma here to try their potato pancakes, but there are about 10 steps to get in and out. Its an old building so its grandfathered in. So unfortunately I wont be able to take her here. But the waitress did mention they are more than willing to accommodate if they can bringing plates, cutlery and whatever is needed for the disabled person to come and eat in the car or take the food to go. ”
“ Overall, I give this a 5 star rating Because the food was delicious, the service good and the experience great! It was slow getting a table but there were 6 of us. It was crowded but it was a Sunday morning on a holiday weekend. The portions were huge and reasonably priced for the amount of food. We took home a couple boxes of food. It was noisy, so be prepared for that. The dress is very casual. Great breakfast! ”
