The atmosphere has a small diner vibe, and the service was excellent. We had our coffee and drinks brought out within a few minutes of sitting down. I ordered the Benedict omelette with no spinach. The hollandaise sauce was definitely the weak spot of the meal. It didn't taste like true hollandaise, had an odd chemical taste, and was surprisingly too spicy. However, the biscuits and gravy and the potatoes were really good and made up for it. Even with the issue with the hollandaise sauce, the amazing service and solid food still earn this place 5 stars. I'll definitely be back, but will try something other than the Benedict omelette.

I had the Denver omelet with country gravy over top with a side of potatoes and toast. Very good! My friend had the French toast with potatoes.

The portion sizes are huge and fulfilling! The atmosphere definitely has that country style "ma & pa" feel, giving it a cozy feel. It was very quiet inside, yet the staff were very friendly, attentive, and kind. I truly enjoyed our first visit here. A definite must try!

Dad ended up with a salad. My BLT was a joke. ONE slice of tomato and ONE leaf of lettuce with what looked like 2 pieces of bacon (might have been 3). None of us were happy with our food and while our server was pleasant, the check out person was not. I will never return to this location.

I was close to giving Park Cafe 4 stars, but our server Miguel absolutely saved the experience…read more When we arrived, the front-of-house vibe was not great. The host stand felt cold and unwelcoming, and the overall energy outside was a little off-putting. To be fair, the hostess was polite when she interacted with us directly, but the first impression was not warm. Once we were seated, Miguel turned the whole experience around. Since we are vegetarian, we have to ask extra questions about sauces, stocks, and hidden meat ingredients. Miguel was extremely helpful with navigating the menu and made sure the items with meat stock were removed or avoided. That kind of care matters a lot. The food was also pretty good. I had the South of the Border Omelette, and my wife had the burrito. Both were solid, and Miguel's service made us feel taken care of instead of like we were being difficult for asking questions. Good food, excellent service from Miguel, and a much better experience once we got past the initial welcome.

Being a resident I drop in here about every five years and while consistent in their offerings, it also consistently "meh". We brought our pup and the service from Miguel was attentive and helpful even bringing a bowl of water for our pup. The location and ambiance is quiet and intimate (I suggest sitting outside when it's nice) and is much bugger than it looks. Coffee taste like Folgers and while each plate has a lot of ingredients, it doesn't have a lot of taste. We ordered the Lady Litchfield Omelette and breakfast burrito and while generous in portion the irony of the dishes was interesting. The omelette was chock full of veggies and minimal egg to wrap them, the burrito had a ton of egg and tortilla but minimal ingredients to taste. At the End of the Day I just don't feel like the experience warranted the $16+ price tag per meal. I'll come back in five more years and see if anything has changed.

The Donut Holes were fun, especially with the glaze for dipping. The coffee was okay.

Our server was delightful and very helpful, which definitely helped the overall experience. I ordered the Florentine Benedict, and while it was good, it was not something I would be raving about afterward. Overall, Haymaker was a solid breakfast/brunch stop. I would go back, but it did not hit the same memorable level as some of the other places from our staycation.

Hubby and I shared a California omelette and hashbrowns well done since they were gluten friendly. We did make a substitution of turkey sausage for bacon and they were happy to accommodate. They didn't have rye bread as a choice so I had an English muffin. Food tasted good. Son had a breakfast sandwich on croissant with spinach and tomato. Food was adequate and served our purpose before we hit the road back home to California. Not sure if we'd come back - nothing particularly wrong with the restaurant - but because honestly, there are so many other restaurants to try in the Arizona area.

I really want to love this Over Easy because I'm happy to have one in the West Valley, and…read morehonestly, the food is what keeps us coming back. It's generally consistent, and when something has been off, they've usually been good about correcting it. The problem is there seems to be something nearly every visit. During the breakfast rush, the lobby gets so packed you're practically standing over people eating near the host stand. Cleanliness also needs attention - the yellow fabric booth backs are visibly stained, and on one visit I could see into the kitchen and noticed a dirty rag leaning against food being prepped. We started coming around 11:30-12 to avoid the rush, yet oddly our last two visits have had some of the longest waits for food and service. One meal took over 30 minutes waiting for a poached egg on an egg benedict (I think the kitchen forgot) while my other food sat ready in the back and got too cold to eat by the time they brought everything out. The waitress was NOT helpful at all but took the meal off when she saw we could barely eat half. Most recently when we made a reservation, we received a text saying our table was ready, confirmed it, walked inside, and were told it by the hostess " I just wanted to make sure you'd confirm, it'll be another 10 minutes." Why tell guests their table is ready when it isn't??? That just started things off bad. Although we do get a good chuckle every time we hear one of the hosts take a guest back and as "so what brings you in here?" Oh you know, probably because y'all have food and we're hungry what else? Lol That same visit, our waitress repeated all my modifications back correctly, but when we actually got the food it wasn't cooked to what was specified so I'm thinking the main problem is with the kitchen being careless and not paying attention to tickets, ticket times, cleanliness, etc. it just feels like things are getting sloppy. I don't expect perfection and any one of these things would be easy to overlook. It's the fact that the "little somethings" (cleanliness, long wait times, incorrect orders, or poor communication) are starting to add up. I do gotta say the food has been SOLID, flavor wise, which is why we've kept giving them another chance, but the attention to detail needs improvement. At this point, another major issue may finally be the one that keeps us returning here for our weekly fam brunches. I do hope things don't keep sliding though, this is a nice spot in a prime location.

Now I have the time since I won't be able to eat the rest of my food. I ordered over the phone and was told the food would take 15 minutes. I ordered 5 pieces of the Fish Fry and double fries and my girlfriend got the Hatch Chili Burger and upgraded to Sweet Potato fries for $2+ dollars. I live 2 minutes away down the street. I left 20 minutes after my order was made. When I get there I tell the cashier I have a to-go order and he has me pay. After I finish paying, he walks away without saying a word to me and starts sweeping the floor. I just wait and we make eye contact multiple times and he doesn't say anything. I assumed my food was ready because it had already been 25 minutes since I ordered. I realized maybe it's not ready, my mistake, I sit down in the table near the counter. He's watching me sit down and the literal exact moment I sit down he yells out that my order is ready. And when I get up to go get it, that's when he starts putting it in the bag. He doesn't go to the kitchen or anything so I don't know if my order was just sitting there this whole time and he was just waiting for me to sit down for some reason? I'm in no rush so I don't care its been 35 minutes at this point so I give him the benefit of the doubt still, and move on. Stacks the tartar sauce as he's trying to put everything in the bag and the stack falls over and a sauce falls on the floor. He looks at me and looks at the floor then he looks around the sauce drawer and puts another 3rd sauce which I assumed was another tartar sauce. It ended up being ranch. I wouldn't have cared if he just told me that he was out of tartar sauce but I guess trying to deceive me with ranch is a better option. At this point I would've still given a 4 STAR or even 5 STAR review if the food held up because it's a local business and I don't want some weird bald guy deter people from good food. After my 2 minute drive home we opened our containers that held extremely soggy and half cold sweet potato fries. I ordered double fries with my fish so my pile of fries were double soggy and partly cold too. I ate 2 pieces of Fish Fry and they were alright. I would've ordered them again and I was excited because I had a huge piece of fish fry I was going to have next. However I realized it was 2 pieces of fish fry stuck together causing the stuck sides to be soggy and have semi uncooked breading. The biggest piece I was excited for was the biggest disappointment. The only saving grace was the Hatch Chili Burger. The beef patties were soft and cooked well, unlike the last 3 pieces of fish fry. We spent $40 dollars on the entire thing. And we only ate the burger and 2 fish from the meals. Super convenient location for food that I will be completely avoiding in the future. TLDR: Bad service if bald guy is there. Was told 15 minutes but food took around 30-35 minutes. Let's you guess if your food is ready or not after he has you pay. Waits for you to sit down to tell you it's ready when it was possibly just sitting infront of him. Drops tartar sauce and tries to sneak ranch instead of just telling me that he can't/doesn't wanna replace it. Get home, half of order is soggy&cold. ALL fries including upcharged fries were soggy. Only Hatch Chili Burger was good. SPENT $40 and it was 2 meals that were less than mediocre overall. Normally I can ignore most bad service/attitudes but this dude sucked and doesn't like to communicate with customers. Below are photos of what I thought was a "big piece" of fish fry flipped around and then after I separate the two pieces.

What truly sets Cracker Barrel apart, though, goes far beyond the great food and charming country store. Today, I witnessed something genuinely special. Caydence, one of the amazing and friendly cashiers here, took the time to walk an older gentleman to his car, helped him in, and stayed to make sure he was safely on his way before returning to her duties. It wasn't just the act itself--it was the care behind it. She walked at his pace, engaged him in conversation, and showed a level of patience, respect, and kindness that you don't see every day. Moments like that leave a lasting impression. No matter how long the wait might be, I'll continue bringing my grandson here. The food is consistently delicious, but it's the genuine compassion and human connection that make this place unforgettable. Caydence--thank you for being such a beautiful example of kindness. I can only hope my grandbabies grow up with that same level of heart.

My husband ordered the hamburger steak, and while it was cooked, the portion felt small and it lacked flavor. On a positive note, the green side salad was fresh and enjoyable, and the iced tea was just right. Overall, great service and a clean environment, but the food quality needs some improvement to match the experience.
