Description

Nestled in a charming setting adorned with antiques, this small café has garnered mixed reviews. Patrons appreciate the inviting atmosphere and generous portions, particularly enjoying standout items like the chicken salad sandwich and giant pancakes. However, several diners have reported lackluster food quality, such as greasy ham and undercooked hash browns, alongside frustratingly slow service. While many have fond memories and continue to return, others express disappointment, citing health concerns regarding silverware cleanliness and poor meal preparation. Overall, the café offers promise, but inconsistency in both food and service may deter some from returning.

Be sure to try the chicken salad croissant. You won't regret it!

The breakfast here is absolutely fantastic! The staff is wonderful as well. I highly recommend this place. We always make a point to stop here on our way to Duluth.

As you enter the restaurant, you might expect it to be larger inside. The atmosphere is lively, with plenty of interesting decor to enjoy, but it was quite crowded, making it difficult to navigate through the space.

This place is my favorite of all time!! The main cook makes the best chicken salad sandwich. I could eat a whole loaf of that sweet rye bread. They are struggling with young staff like most people but any inconveniences is totally worth it!!! You always get large portions here! Stopping here is a must for me whenever I am driving through even if it isn't a meal time. Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating with gluten free options!

We really were looking forward to stopping here but the caramel roll we got was raw in the middle and the latte we got tasted like just milk. There was maybe one shot of espresso in the large latte.
