I haven't been to a location in almost 10 years so suffice to say I was very excited to come back! I got my usual signature berry bliss waffle and it was delightful. However it was outshined by the strawberry colada smoothie that was DEMOLISHED. My husband killed the cookie dough waffle, he got an espresso, and I ordered a side of bacon and another smoothie to go it was THAT GOOD!! I'm pretty sure we were greeted by the manager and assistant manager. Great service, great and BUSY location (I suspect they all are like this. They're just wonderful!) My husband said I didn't overhype it (even though I was drooling while I was describing this place to him lol) that it was a good call and he would go again. :) We'll see you next time! Thank you for the best trip down memory lane.

We ordered a few different things so we could try a little bit of everything, including the breakfast sandwich, æbleskiver, an egg dish with potatoes, and some drinks. The æbleskiver were definitely fun to try and came with dipping sauces, and everything was beautifully presented. The breakfast sandwich was decent and filling, and the potatoes were really good too. We also tried a drink flight along with a Bloody Mary, which was a fun way to sample a few different flavors instead of committing to just one drink. Everything looked just as good as it tasted. The atmosphere is cute and cozy and definitely has more character than your typical brunch spot. I also liked that the menu has items you don't see everywhere else in Rockford.

Absolutely lovely…read more Located on the Main Square of Woodstock, IL, this cafe serves breakfast and lunch in a warm, welcoming space. Our waitress tells us the business previously at this location got a make over when participating in a foodnetwork TV show. Sweet. The decor is earthy colors with wood on the walls, fun signs, comfortable booths and tables for groups. Highchairs are available for your tiny family members. A hostess will seat you with menus and flatware wrapped in a napkin. Salt, pepper, sugar, creamer, jelly, syrup, ketchup and hot sauces are on the table. One side of the menu is breakfast, the other lunch. We were asked right away if we would like coffee. The staff here are all very nice and welcoming. Different members of staff came around to all tables several times during our stay refilling coffees as needed. Our waitress checked in on us a couple of times and actually stopped at the table to be sure we had all we needed, not just running past. We both ordered breakfast and the portions are generous. I had the Irish Bene and they don't skimp on the smoked salmon! The eggs were poached well, a generous amount of spinach and the potato pancake is tasty and light. I very much enjoyed their coffee. Strong, hot and smooth. Not at all bitter. Yay. Two remodled, single-person restrooms are at the back of the restaurant where you'll also find hooks for your coat. A diaper station is in the ladies room. The restaurant has two window walls letting in the sun light. On-street parking is free. If we lived here this would be our breakfast place!

We attempted to give our name and we were assured they knew what order to seat people. Some smart people just walked in and sat down without asking. Service was incredibly poor - the waitress had a gruff artitude. I always comment that service is attentive and friendly in about 99.99% of my reviews because I understand that waitressing is a super tough job. This waiteess brought the wrong food and then insisted they got the order right. When we weren't willing to accept the wrong food, they were irritated. After things got corrected the waitress attempted to get back on solid ground. It may have just been a bad day for her but it soured our visit (and yet we still tipped over 20% cuz we know it is a tough job). The food was about a 3.5. The chicken breast sandwich was a bit dry but the rye bread was delicious. The corned beef hash was decent and was a generous portion. The sausage gravy and eggs were as expected. I wish they had fresh fruit as an option but the grilled tomatoes were tasty. The angry waitress may tainted our opinion of the food. The prices were reasonable and the location on the square is super convenient. If I go here again I will post another review and hoping my opinion will be more positive as I typically love small privately owned restaurants with some history.

Diner food was excellent, service from Alexis was great and the couple that owns the place checked on us a couple of times during dinner--it seems like a rarity to meet the ownership during a visit. Our beverages never went empty, the service staff didn't miss a beat and our bellies were full of great, healthy food. All the salads were cool, crisp and the perfect size. 2 diners ordered the Calf Liver which was so tender--perfectly cooked with bacon and sautéed onions. Our Sizzling Chicken, which was a new entree, was excellent--crispy, cheesy, creamy, and spicy--all served on a sizzling platter. We even had an ice cream Sundae for the birthday fellow---he was so happy. Cakes, pies and ice cream sundaes were top notch. Their Key Lime Pie was sold out but there are plenty of other choices...cheesecake, Tres Leches, Vanilla Berry layer cake...the perfect finishers. Seek this place out...very good dinner cuisine and excellent, attentive serving staff make this a must go. Can't wait to come back for Swedish Pancakes and omelettes soon!
