This cosy, comfortable cafe is part-bakery, part-restaurant, and has a beautiful patio for warmer days. The front of house team was all female the day we went, and worked together as a powerhouse to get through the busy lunchtime rush. We were seated pretty quickly at the bar area, so we were able to watch the kitchen at work. The team all seemed so organized and efficient - like watching masters at work! Food and drink menu options are delightful, and we really enjoyed the quiche (seasonal vegetables) and the insanely delicious beet and citrus salad. Portions are very generous and food comes out quickly. The server talked us through wine options by the glass, gave tasters and great recommendations. We later learned that Mother supplies bread to other restaurants in the area - no surprise, it was fantastic. Will be returning every time we're in the area.

Their food is true home-made, and is very fresh and tasty. I ordered their "Love" burger and a side of potato salad. The burger was very good, the patty was thick and meaty, and I especially liked the caramelized onions. The potato salad was made from chucks of perfectly cooked red-skinned potatoes with a creamy mayo-based dressing - some of the best potato salad that I've had in a long time. Service was very quick and friendly. Sadly they're only open for breakfast and lunch, but I'll have to try and get by earlier next time to try some of their breakfast offerings.

I was grateful to be able to get a seat at the bar, with a less than 10 minute wait. It is honestly worth it! The staff was warm and welcoming, even with tending to loads of customers (this is a true skill and art). The ambiance is upbeat and lively! Imagine a roadside breakfast parlor. I sat at the bar and it was good vibes! The hostess used to live in my hometown (who woulda thunk it) & I met the coolest guy from Boston, who has a golden doodle named Nugget back home. Good vibes all the way, which added to a special experience. He was flying back home after his meal. Now, onto the food (the part you all have been patiently waiting for). I ordered a hibiscus tea as my beverage (warm and refreshing). I also ordered the carrot cake hotcakes, a side of bacon, and a side of home fries. The carrot hotcakes were luscious! They came with hazelnut butter, and amazing syrup!!! These hotcakes were savory and filling! The bacon had an essence of hickory! A perfect medley between crispy and tender! The home fries were seasoned nicely and I doused them with ketchup and hot sauce! This was an iconic and memorable restaurant experience for me! This is coming from someone who has dined in restaurants around the world! Cheers!

It was elevated Southern cuisine, and we enjoyed it enough that we may go back before leaving the area. The restaurant has a comfortable feel -- upscale, but not stuffy. The service was excellent. The servers were personable and attentive without hovering. At one point, I accidentally dropped my napkin, and our server immediately brought me another one. Our water glasses were continually refilled, and our server checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. My partner and I liked so many things on the menu that we knew ordering soup, salad, an appetizer, and entrées would be too much. We told our server we were sharing, and for most of the courses, they divided the portions and brought them out on separate plates. That was another small touch that showed they were paying attention to detail. There wasn't anything we had that we wouldn't order again. We started with the seasonal soup, which was a tomato bisque, followed by the strawberry and feta salad. The country ham board was excellent and actually had me looking for Lusty Monk mustard the next day. For our main entrée, we shared the shrimp and grits, which was also delicious. Great food, thoughtful service, and a comfortable upscale atmosphere. This was the best meals we had in the area.

Once we entered the building, we were greeted by a friendly hostess and promptly seated in booth. Our server was friendly and attentive and was helpful when I was struggling to decide on my meal. I ordered the corned beef bowl and wow, I think that was probably the best corned beef that I have ever had! I do wish the rest of the bowl would have been more flavorful/better seasoned though. It was a cute atmosphere and would certainly return again. Thanks for a nice breakfast experience!
