    Omg the gluten free pancakes are huge and the best I have ever had! I am excited to come again and try some of the gluten free bakery items. They have a large parking lot. The cafe is small inside so better for small groups.

    Cafe Cravings has been an icon in our area my whole life. I remember my grandma taking me there to get an amazingly decadent hot chocolate growing up and their massive cookies. However now that we are older we do pop in for food and family time. On this visit we had a 6 month old with us, and were able to find a nice spot on the patio to be together. We ordered inside at the counter (which is filled with amazing baked goods to choose from) and then were able to enjoy the calm patio space. They have fresh options every day in addition to their usual offerings, and their apple walnut pancakes this day stole the show. It was so so good. We love this little place and supporting local, and will definitely be going back on my next visit in hopes they have those pancakes still!

    IMHO I was visiting from California and wanted to treat my Minnesota friend to breakfast. I Yelped nearby breakfast joints and Cafe Cravings piqued my interest. At 10:30 am, we claimed our table then went up to order from the very friendly staff. (Yes, everyone is "Minnesota Nice"!) We ordered the Stuffed French Toast with a side of bacon and the Breakfast Croissant. For my personal taste, the stuffed French toast (with cream cheese) and the sugary topping was a tad too sweet for me, yet I finished my shared portion! My friend devoured her breakfast croissant! By the time we left, the dining room was full! Yes, I'll definitely go back one day!

    I ordered online for pickup (website is very easy to navigate with pictures and descriptions of the food) Greeted promptly and my "Office Treats" were ready to go. Scone, Lemon Poppy Seed, Carmel Roll and more. It's a cute cozy little place to eat in (plenty of free parking) or use their convenient drive thru as well. Breakfast and Lunch items are available. Well worth the price (food cost is unfortunately high right now for restaurants) for the quality of food they serve. Definitely will be back!

    Eggs Florentine

    Service was great, love the "serve yourself model" except I didn't love that other patrons can handle all of the silverware . The eggs were perfect! The bit of dill in the hollandaise was delicious! Unfortunately the potatoes were awful. Seemed like they were cooked long before we arrived as they were not hot and nor crisp (like they had been slightly warmed in a microwave). The building itself could use a facelift, but I care less about what a place looks like and more about the food. I'd come back for that hollandaise and to try some of the delicious looking baked goods!

    Just an amazing hole in the wall place that my family enjoyed on some random morning. The FOOD IS AMAZING! You order at the counter but they bring the food to you. It's just great, people are young and friendly...what a way to spend a beautiful day on the outdoor patio with your favorite people.

    This little place has been on my to go list and it did not disappoint. My spouse and I will have to return because there was so many more things to try. I got the special blueberry French toast bake that was amazing. It's pieces of French toast cut up and mixed with blueberries and baked, topped with whipped cream. Dessert for breakfast at its best. Definitely a breakfast for two. My spouse got the eggs Benedict and it did not disappoint. The English muffin was grilled to perfection and the hollandaise sauce was phenomenal with so much butter. The ham was a good portion as well. As for the service, we got there and there was two people in front of us. We looked at the menu and then ordered right at the counter. The women in the front made our drinks right away. We did have to wait for our food for about 20 minutes, which we didn't mind since we sat outside on the patio with such nice weather. We loved that they had many tables inside and outside to sit. The ambiance is like a nice brunch for any day of the week. It was calm and so nice to dine there. However, many people came after us and they do have a small staff so expect to wait. Which we were fine with because we were not in a rush. There were so many other desserts that I have to come back to try. We both got there turtle mocha and it was delicious. Will definitely return again soon!

    Outside patio!

    Came here hungry and leaving quite satisfied with everything. The food was served promptly and perfectly prepared. Hubby had the skillet breakfast with easy over eggs and he devoured everything except the plate! Well done and outside seating on a beautiful morning was a bonus. Just ignore the passing traffic!

    Not toasted toast with the butter not really spread on the toast.

    This is one of my very favorite places for breakfast, and I return often because the food is…read moreconsistently delicious. I highly recommend the Original Bagel Sandwich--an everything bagel with bacon, American cheese, and a fried egg--paired with Oliver's hash. The hash has outstanding flavor and is truly a standout. Another favorite is the Scrambler (scrambled eggs with bacon, scallions, mushrooms, peppers, aged cheddar, and Oliver's hash underneath). Again, the flavor is excellent. If you enjoy a little kick, be sure to ask for their homemade hot sauce--it's terrific. I believe the ketchup is made in-house as well, although it's not quite to my taste. My one consistent disappointment with breakfast is that the menu never changes. They don't seem to offer specials, and I would really love to see new items introduced--whether occasionally or seasonally. Adding some variety would make an already great experience even better. I've considered going for lunch, but the current menu doesn't quite draw me in. I tend to go to specialty places for pizza or tacos, and while I'm sure the soup is very good, I can't justify $17 for a bowl. There are burgers and sandwiches as well, but nothing that really stands out to me. Again, introducing lunch specials or rotating items would make a big difference and likely bring me in more often. The atmosphere is excellent--comfortable, inviting, and full of charming little nooks and crannies, along with bar seating. If having a booth is important to you, I recommend making a reservation.

Their menu is phenomenal: hearty, homestyle meals with a creative twist, and portions that always leave you satisfied. I've tried several dishes over the years, and I'm consistently impressed by the care, quality, and integrity they put into their food. The dishes feel unique and thoughtfully crafted, with flavors that are both comforting and complex. Most recently, I had the pineapple curry, and it completely blew me away. It was plated beautifully and tasted even better than it looked. One thing you absolutely shouldn't skip is the daily specials, they're usually some of the most creative and delicious items on the menu. Their menu is also well labeled for gluten free. Brunch or dinner, Brickhouse is absolutely worth the visit (+ there is outdoor rooftop seating!!). I highly recommend!

Everything was tasty - I really enjoyed the butternut squash carbonara - I normally don't order meatless pasta dishes but this was calling me. I thought about the ribeye but wasn't feeling g the $80 price tag on that. Wide range in prices - some stuff seemed overpriced but others right in range! The creme brûlée was great - the cheesecake wasn't for me but the others liked it! Service was fine - only thing pulling it down a star. I didn't really feel particularly welcomed. It was busy and my wife never got a refill on her soda... but mom did. Wouldn't steer me away but wouldn't bring me back. The decor feels fancy but It's somewhat casual the servers just in tshirts and shorts which is fine - I'm here for the food anyway!

    ‼New restaurant try that should go on your list!‼…read more I've wanted to try @churchillstmn in Shoreview for a few years now and just hadn't gotten around to it yet. Finally went and had an awesome lunch that I'll definitely need to go back for again. Everything we ordered was really really good. The menu had so many contenders so I'll need to come back and try other things. We noticed a pancake go by our table and that kinda did it for me. I love me a savory and sweet situation so I went with the following and fell in love with my choices and my Auntie's sandwich too....sorry, not sorry. The Breakfast Sandwich (so much flavor going on in this sandwich and when I ordered the response was ooo good choice, which is a deal maker for me) Kid's Pancake on the side (Uffdah this was yummy) Crispy Chicken Sandwich (not my order today but tried a bite and my goodness was it good. The looks of the breading put me off a bit to start but it was deceiving. It wasn't heavy and thick but it was thin crisp tasty breading to complement the sandwich I was impressed with how flavorful the chicken was and balanced with everything.) Monster Cookie was a delicious treat later too So basically everything we got was great and when I go back I'll maybe get something new and let you know thoughts then. Safe to say you should check it out sometime. For more awesome food spots check out the account mallorymademetryitmn on Instagram!
