About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Great for brunch
Charming

We are a first come first serve all day restaurant. Walk-ins of all party sizes are encouraged at any time!

Back in the '90s, we were a tiny coffee shop with a lot of heart, a few mismatched tables, and a menu that came together with some help from our regulars. Our mother and her friends pitched in to cook, and we served up the kind of food we grew up on—comforting, familiar, and full of love. Truthfully, we were winging it more often than not. But we were having a lot of fun, and somehow, it worked out.

Staff is great from the hostess to the servers. We had to move our reservation due to transportation issues and Amy accommodated us with a smile. Seating indoors was very loud but we were able to get tables outside which was perfect. Loved the food and the price was right. And for those that are vegetarian/gluten free our server was knowledgeable, and the menu well marked. We'll be back!!!

Love this place, we come at least once (but often several times) whenever we’re in town! Food is always fresh, flavorful, and super tasty. And definitely more affordable, the overall value is amazing and the inclusive atmosphere makes it a 11/10 for me!
