We waited in a line that wrapped around the front but it was beautiful weather outside so we didn't mind. Once inside the vibe was friendly and helpful. We placed our order and waited in one of funky decorative rooms. My coffee was delicious. It was made just sweet enough. I had asked for half sweet and they delivered. They also had a lot of pastries and desserts. We had two of them. The red velvet dessert was a keeper. The prices are what you would expect. Not cheap but not overpriced either. Recommended.

What a cute spot! We stopped in on our way to the park. There was quite a line out the door, I'm…read moresure to do with it being one of the last weekends to see the leaves changing colors before they fall. We got through pretty quickly and had some of the most delicious coffee. I got a hazelnut latte with half and half which was perfect. We also ordered a raspberry danish, a spinach and feta danish, and 3 hazelnut donut holes. The raspberry danish has that perfect flaky layered crust with just enough filling but not overpowering or heavy. The donut holes were so fluffy and chewy yet not sticky sweet. And I didn't try the spinach and feta danish until this morning so not gonna comment on that other than it hit the spot and was still yummy. Cute place! If you're in the area check it out. They also have sandwiches which I would like to try, just a reason to come back I guess.

The biscuits were my fave, eggs, grits, french toast and coffee were what we ordered. Everything was very good and Jordan was a wonderful waitress. We saw they had their lunch specials listed on a board and they were ready for eating @ 10:30am... fried chicken, mashed taters, greens, cobbler and a drink. Looked yummy! Place is open weekdays early morning to @ 1:30pm. If you are in the area, stop by, its family owned and you wont be disappointed. Its a casual family atmosphere, great place to chill.

Service was (shy of one saving grace) meh and food was just meh. The menu had several items listed that really could bring this place up a notch. Hubby ordered the duck Cuban which was really good. I had the chicken quesadillas, nothing to write home about. My girlfriend got the Philly and said it was good. I love the brand of chips they serve and especially the jalapeño queso chips. They were out of wings. This is a miss considering how this was one of if not the last weekends of the season to see the leaves change colors, it's going to be busy and wings aren't hard to stock nor do they go to waste at a restaurant/bar. They should've been prepared. The setup is you order at the bar, take your drink and a number to your table and they bring your food. Cool. They bring our food out and my gf asks for napkins and they tell her she's gotta go back up to the deck to get them. Huh? Why didn't they just bring them with the food? We have fresh food in front of us and now have to leave that food to get napkins? Here comes saving grace because as soon as that server made it back to the deck, a different server comes out to our table with a caddy of napkins. She was really cool, and much appreciated! They have a target audience (people coming and going to and from the park) so I guess they don't have to deliver stellar food and service but to miss on both is disappointing. People are making memories with their families. And it wouldn't take much to tighten up and deliver amazing food and amazing service instead of just being convenient. I chose the place for our party of 8 and I felt bad. Thankfully I think everyone was too tired and cold to complain.

Then the bacon cheese fries came and I was much more hopeful. They were delish! Different sauce than they give you at first and the fries were super crispy! Our waitress was very kind and helped us find some gluten free options. The meal was to die for! I seriously wanted to lick my plate, except I couldn't finish it because the portions are very large, especially for the price. All in all, great experience, would recommend, and we will certainly be back! What we ate: -Texas fries (bacon, cheese, jalapeño, and green onions on fries) -Texas rice with guacamole (chicken and steak with sautéed peppers and onions on Mexican rice smothered with queso and served with house made tortillas chips) -Chicken piccata (grilled) over mashed potatoes (instead of pasta)
