Greeted immediately and no line. Super clean. I ordered glazed donuts and petite fours. I quickly noticed one pan of donuts looked sad and almost like yesterdays. Well that may have been what I got because the icing was already off and they were a bit chewy. Kinda buttery dough which I think would have been great. These were also the smallest donut I've ever had. They honestly were just ok. I would definitely go back because I feel like they have to be fresh and I went in around noon. Although I didn't care for the petite four I will try a few an other things next time.

It should come with the toast or hash brown. Never had sour cream on an omelette but wanted to try it. I also ordered a slice of toast. It was very good. I ordered their strawberry biscuit to eat tomorrow for breakfast. The omelette and toast was very good. I would suggest lining the container you serve it in because it was getting a little soggy. Customer service was great and apologized for the delay. You should have 2 working up front. Look forward to my next visit.
