While I enjoyed the croissants, cheese, and wine, nothing compares to a hearty American meal! Although it’s a bit of a drive off the highway, the trip is definitely worth it. I ordered the Reuben, which was fantastic—thick slices of meat served alongside fries. My wife had the turkey club and declared it the best she’s ever had, which is saying a lot since it’s her favorite order at diners. My son devoured a burger so quickly I had to do a double take! Teenagers really do eat like they haven't had a meal in ages! My daughter chose the chicken Caesar salad and gave it a thumbs up. The staff was incredibly friendly, and they even have an ice cream takeout window! I just wish this place were closer to home; I would visit all the time!

They serve breakfast all day, and we enjoyed the homemade corned beef hash along with delicious homemade raisin toast. The eggs were perfectly cooked, and the coffee was excellent. The omelettes were quite good as well—simple, classic American fare. They offer both lunch and dinner menus, and the prices are reasonable. Our waitress was very friendly, and the owner was there too, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. We look forward to coming back to this new breakfast spot!

I would have given it a higher rating if the service had been quicker. During our visit, there was only one chef and one waiter, which caused our food to take over an hour to arrive while we were on our way to Canada. I would definitely consider coming back, but I would check their staffing levels first.

The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and the prices were quite reasonable. However, the food did not live up to our hopes. I ordered hash and eggs, but the hash was overly greasy and the potatoes were almost burnt. The poached eggs were also overcooked. The toast was fine, but overall, it wasn't what we were looking for. Perhaps lunch would be a better choice?
