I was initially excited at first, but was quickly displeased. The iced latte had a bitter aftertaste. The chicken and waffles... was a joke. I received a big lump of fried flour with the smallest and driest chicken piece. The waffle? Soggy, undercooked andalso surprisingly bitter. Not worth it for the price you pay. Read more
I really like the vibe of this place. Lots of spots to chill. Theres spots out front, inside in the front area, inside in the... den, on the porch and also a backyard area. Curious to see what its like during the cold months. Staff is friendly, the coffeeis perfect everytime. Prices are good too. Read more
The staff was so friendly and the skillet that I ordered was so tasty. The portions were large enough that I was able to have... some for lunch. I absolutely love the patio - it has great shade and is cozy. Read more
This place gets 3 stars for the atmosphere and coffee , for me personally the food was kinda bland and lacked in flavor. My... chicken & waffle was supposed to be spicy with bacon inside of the waffle. Well my waffle had 0 bacon inside and the chicken wasnot spicy at all ,the only saving grace of my meal was the sausage patty they added to it which was a nice touch and the fact itwas very filling. My son had the corned beef benedict that was pretty good imo. This place has potential they just need to workon making sure the food is prepped per what is described in the menu. Read more
We wanted to try out a new breakfast spot and we came across this place. Even though this place had 4.5 stars we like sure let?s... try it out. Sorry this place is not worth it, too pricey for cheap breakfast ingredients and our waiter, Mike I believe that washis name I don?t think he was familiar with the menu and secondly we had to get his attention because he never came to our tableafter we got our food. Overall good concept but need more work. Read more
The service was great and the food was yummy! My Husband and I stopped in this place on a whim. I had the chorizo skillet with a... drip coffee and he had the LHC skillet with an Americano. The portions are very generous but most importantly, they were good.The dining area and the bathrooms are both very clean. An extra star for the (Spanish) music selection coming from the kitchen!We'll definitely be back! Read more
First and foremost, I have NEVER been in a restaurant that charges for refills of coffee! When I mentioned that to the server... she said that Starbucks does! Starbucks is a coffee shop, not a restaurant. Anyway, the food varied significantly. I had acrepe omelets (it is really just a folded omelet...no crepe involved) that was really good. The breakfast potatoes were verysalty. We also had a waffle that was average. The third item was a skillet that was also very salty. I was expecting adifferent ambiance because the web page made it look like the rooms of a house (the restaurant was a residence at one point) butwe ate in an open room that was rather chilly. I bet the outdoor area is nice during warmer weather. Prices are a littlehigher than average. I might try it again during the summer. Read more
