We arrived early, the owner had just woken up but graciously let us in and made us delicious coffee and the most amazing eggs benedict I have ever had. Adorable cat(s), great ambiance, and a very interesting owner - definitely talk to him if you get a chance. Everything home-grown (eggs home-laid) and thoughtfully prepared. Definitely a foodie's heaven. We wished we could stay - live music, beautiful setting and of course I could eat his food all day long.

We ended up coming here for breakfast one day, lunch another, and pre-dinner snacks another. My favorite thing I ordered here was the veggie stack for brunch/breakfast. They serve brekkie here until 11:30am and their poached eggs are where it is at! Their baked goods are also fresh, dense, and worth every cent. They change up their specialty scones daily at the front pastry container at the cashier. My favorite was the cheese scone - I had two of these in one day! When it's good, it's good! My friend enjoyed the fruit muesli baked slice as well as her ham and egg benedict. They have clean restrooms in the back, free WiFi, and a patio for smokers in the back as well. Service was good and free water is available with glasses in the cooler. I can't say enough about this place - what a great!
