The restaurant is very cute and there are booths and tables. Our waitress was extremely rude. She acted like we knew the menu. My mom was asking her questions and she said I will be right back when your ready and walked away. We were ready to order. My mom is deaf in one ear and the waitress was not facing her so much mom was confused why she left the table. When we were ready to leave the waitress was nice to us. We did not get straws until our food came and I am surprised because it was not even busy. The food was excellent and made up for the horrible service. I think our waitress was just having a bad day (based on other reviews) I don't think I would come out of my way to eat here again, but if your in the area looking for good food, you won't regret dining here.

I try to steer away from chains and order from local owned eateries but I'm consistently disappointed in the food. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a cup of soup. I can tell you the sandwich was good but bland, and I couldn't eat the hash browns because they forgot to pack any utensils or condiments even though I had checked the order form. I drank my soup broth, which was a creamy chicken with chunks of veggies and that was really good. If only I had a spoon and some salt and pepper, but...I can't give a complete review because without utensils I'm lost.

So I decided to try it for lunch and am torn between 3-4 stars. I got the breaded veal diner/dinner type special, posted on the board behind the counter seating. $14. And it came with bean or cream of potato soup. The veal was not a whole piece of veal but a ground concoction that seemed like something from the grocery frozen food section. Not awful but not awesome. Then again this is a little diner so should I expect chef food? It is called Little Chef. Undecided. It was served hot and crisp which was good because the gravy and mashed taters were definitely overwhelming the texture and flavor of the meal. The gravy was ok but a little different taste than any gravy I've ever had. Definitely not homemade and was very strong flavored. I think if it had some beans or a small salad included with this would have been happier. I got hot tea which was a challenge as the water spilled all over from the tea pot and I was told to put my hand on the top to avoid that, but then your finger got a little bit of burn from the hot metal. The soup was good and I took it home. The service was fine, absolutely no issues there and since it wasn't too busy, as expected. I know everyone's prices everywhere have gone up, but I just can't justify what I paid for what I got. Again not sure what expectations should be in this economy or where to put the extra minus star for the state of restaurants and value, but this was just a bit under expectations.

It is cozy and inviting if you need to do a little work, lots of seating and a great spot to sit and enjoy food, snacks and coffee. We loved this spot so much we stopped each day for the 3 days we were in town. The first day, Mr. Bee ordered the Pecan Pie Latte a seasonal drink. Not a coffee drinker, it sounded delicious and I took a sip, then another and another. It tasted just like pecan pie and the coffee was actual quite good, it was smooth and not bitter. If I lived in town I think I could get used to drinking coffee it was that good. When I spotted a Pumpkin Chai, I jumped on it. I am a pumpkin junkie. I ordered this one iced. It was so good. The pumpkin blended seamlessly with the chai spices and it quickly became a favorite. Wish I could find them at home. The next morning we stopped in to grab drinks before heading out on a day trip. Mr. Bee went with a regular coffee which was again smooth and not bitter. Such a creature of habit when I find a favorite, I ordered the Pumpkin Chai, but this time hot. It was delicious. We grabbed a croissant to take with us, and it was crunchy and creamy on the inside. Happy Campers On our way out of town after checking out of our inn, we stopped once again. The staff was so nice and recognized us, got our drinks for us and told us to come back if in town again. Such a gem of a coffee, confection, pastry and food shop in town.

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!

It would be really fundamentally incorrect to describe their sausage and biscuits as Nirvana in the Buddhist sense, but the dish is very good and so is the coffee. Most tables have a good view of the town square featured in "Groundhog Day," and the diner is next door to a nice indie bookstore.
