For the second time in six months I have been very disappointed in the breakfast selections that were offered at this establishment. The first time this happened I thought this was COVID related. However, this time at 9:30 in the morning on a holiday weekend they were almost out of all breakfast items on the menu which now makes me think it's a lack of planning that is causing me to give this poor review. The staff is incredibly friendly and the setting here is very nice, but I find it very frustrating to go out for breakfast and be offered either a very limited menu or actually lunch as it was proposed to me by one of the staff members. Not good!

Oak Leaf Cafe is definitely a must try place! They are so attentive, clean, and super kind. My Ma and I both wanted to get breakfast, but we just missed the mark at 11:10 am and it was 11:12 am when we tried to order. They don't serve breakfast after that time we were told unfortunately. My Ma and I ordered the cheesesteak sandwich and it was slamming. Although, it was a bit dry through some parts and we asked a waitress that happened to pass us by after cleaning a table with a sanitizing agent(which is awesome to see) if we could get some extra mayonnaise. Without any problem or extra fee she delivered to us extra mayonnaise to us within that minute. It gets quite busy during Lunch time, but the long lines become pretty short in no time because the workers here get their work done (imagine that huh haha). The layout of the Cafe is very spacious, so it doesn't feel like you're crammed near people. It displays lots of nature paintings, which gives the Cafe a tranquil and airy feeling. I would definitely stop by again whenever I'm in the area and hopefully next time I make it for breakfast!
