Order at counter from the menu board. The pastry case is right there too, with irresistible coffee cake, scones, and other treats. The coffee cake was irresistible to me so I ordered a big slice. Bookguy had the large biscuits and gravy. We both had a sausage croissant breakfast sandwich too. Bookguy really liked the biscuits and gravy, wishing it was bigger. I tried a bite and liked it too, not salty and the biscuit was tender. The breakfast sandwich was pretty standard, but hit the spot. The coffee cake was very fresh and delicious. The coffee bar was unexpected with flavored coffee and regular. I chose the one called Jamaica Me Crazy that was flavored with vanilla cream and kahlua which was excellent. The staff is friendly and I had a great conversation with a woman whom I think is the owner.

We ordered a Bleu burger with fries and a Patty Melt with fries. As we were waiting, a waitress was patting out REAL hamburgers that were HUGE! Needless to say, we both said that it was the best burger/patty melt that we have ever had. It is a cute small town bar and the prices were very reasonable. We have already told several friends about it and will be stopping in again this weekend! Shannon and Marcia Kelly

Others open, change names a few times, and then fold up. I say this to highlight that having a good diner in the small city of Fremont is not an easy task. This diner has kept the spirit alive, showing that the mantle of quaint throwback eateries is still burning. Breakfast food is consistently good, the sandwiches in particular are remarkable value. Also located next to a gas station and located on the edge of town if you're passing through. The owner also possesses a rare intersection of expertise in food service and business acumen. He has owned other restaurants local to this city that have been successful under his management, setting the bar high for eating establishment in the area. All things taken into account, this is a place worth trying if you are considering it.

There was plenty of seating both inside and out, making it easy to settle in and enjoy a relaxed breakfast. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the large menu offered plenty of options with the flexibility to customize orders. I went with the two-egg plate, served with crispy potatoes, bacon, and French toast, and everything was delicious. The coffee arrived hot and fresh and kept coming, which is always a plus. The kids absolutely devoured their chocolate chip pancakes like nobody's business! It's easy to see why this place has so many loyal customers. Many people mentioned the consistently friendly service, generous portions, and homemade feel of the food, and after our visit, I can understand why. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this is a great spot for a hearty breakfast. We'll definitely be back to work our way through the rest of the menu!

Stopped in for brunch on a Saturday around 11am and waited about 25 minutes for a table. I didn't mind the wait, because they take your phone number and text you when your table is ready, so we were able to walk around countryside plaza during our wait. Our food hit the spot!!! I got the cali club which always blows me away. The fresh croissant from le quart is the cherry on top of an excellent sandwich. I usually stay away from breakfast sandwiches at restaurants in favor of other options, but will always make an exception here. My husband got the chorizo burrito- I'm not personally a fan of rice in a breakfast burrito so I wouldn't order it myself, but nonetheless it was still pretty good. I loved that they offer local hot sauces from volcanic peppers on the side. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. She was very busy but always kept an eye on us and refilled our drinks multiple times without us having to ask. Overall, it's a classic, highly recommended Omaha brunch spot for a reason. Will never say no to coming here.

Plus, the omelette was cooked all the way through. My hashbrowns were crispy perfection.
