After waiting a few minutes, we noticed a couple walk in, sit at the bar, and skip the line to order their food directly from the bar - helpful info that wasn't clear prior! Service was slow, though bar staff was apologetic. The food, while fresh and properly made, did not seem to be anything special, relative to the prices. Our served offered coupons for next time, courtesy of the manager, which we appreciated! Though after paying for our beverages, we discovered we were charged for a bottle of wine we hadn't ordered. Our server handled it well and instructed us to call the restaurant if the charge went through, which we fortunately didn't need to do. Between the hustle and bustle of the weekend brunch rush, perhaps this spot may benefit from streamlining their process and hiring more staff.

Cozy's Cottage has always been a hit‑or‑miss spot for us, and unfortunately our September 18 visit…read morelanded firmly in the "miss" category. My husband ordered the soup and shaved Caesar, while I went with the Carbonara. The soup arrived lukewarm, and the shaved Caesar was awkward to eat--shaved romaine simply doesn't cooperate with a fork. The Carbonara was completely uneatable and the biggest disappointment. What arrived at the table looked more like a soupy, broken sauce with noodles swimming underneath and a barely cooked egg collapsing into the bowl than anything resembling Carbonara. The photo says it all: a runny, unsettled mixture that never came together as a cohesive dish. To their credit, the manager removed it from the bill and apologized, explaining that a new chef is still learning the recipes and that the dish should never have been served that way. The issue, of course, is that it was served that way. Cozy's seems to be experimenting with "deconstructed" presentations, but it isn't working. The shaved lettuce Caesar came topped with a deviled egg, and the Carbonara featured that nearly raw egg sitting on top of a watery sauce. Sometimes sticking with what you know is the better choice. Despite this visit, we'll likely return--Cozy's can be charming, and when they get it right, the food can be quite good. But consistency remains their biggest challenge. Next time, I'll ordered the fried chicken!

I was initially concerned by how large their menu was but the restaurant executes it well. The pizza was good, but a little more sauce and more generous topping application would have made it great.

Sigh, I want to root for you, Fireside Cafe, but you make it a challenge. Everything tastes like…read moresomething I can make at home, or worse. Kind of a cross between bar food and food from DQ, but I've had bar food that's better than this. First, why Fireside? There is no fireplace! Also, the space gives off more of a bar & grill vibe than a cafe vibe, IMO. When we stopped in at Friday at 5, I was hoping we found a hidden gem. But, seeing no one here to dine should have been the first indication to go elsewhere...this was the worst meal I've had in a long time! Fried Ravioli - not enough sauce, and they were round? All other friend ravioli I've had were square. They were not good, would have preferred them to be meat instead of ricotta. Fish & Chips - while the fries were cooked well, they had no seasoning. Fish was meh. Was given something that looked and tasted like honey mustard, but lo and behold they put mustard in the tarter sauce...vile. Fruit cup was good, until the honeydew...tasted off. My husband had the chicken parm, which he liked, but after tasting it, I don't see how. Tasted like straight up flour. Maybe I ordered the wrong things? I may never know, as I see no reason to return to Fireside Cafe.

That is always safe and delicious choice. If you like pancakes, the place serves them with many different flavors, sometimes seasonal, like pumpkin. You can always order a pancake as a side dish, too. My guest last time ordered French toast and liked it a lot. Coffee is always served generously, which is a big plus. The service is always fast and friendly. One minor downsizing factor of the place is that it is quite small, and since the good food makes it very popular, on busy days, like Sundays, you might have to wait a long time to be seated. Busy hours also make it somewhat a noisy place to eat. This First Watch is always a pleasant and welcoming place for your breakfast, brunch, or lunch.
