The wait time wasn't bad for it being packed, around 30 minutes but we were seated in 10. The wait staff was so kind, they were quick and ready for us to order, even interacting with us and making conversations. I had came here a few weeks ago and ended up getting the same server, who actually remembered me. I ordered the Frozen Cocoa and it did not disappoint! It had an amazing flavor and really tasted like the cocoa you had when you were at home, during winter watching movies. The food was amazing, I ordered the Cherrywood Avocado Toast recommended by our server Jazmin and I have to say, I was not disappointed! It had amazing flavors and it paired up perfectly together. My parents had the Ultimate Scrambler with sweet potatoes and the Sweet Potato Skillet, they looked amazing and tasted amazing as well. The meals are well-priced, they won't break the bank. There is a good amount of food on the plate that makes the price worth it. I will say this, this food is worth it.

Let me start by saying that we're a huge fans of small businesses and want to see them succeed…read more I've also worked in plenty of restaurants and coffee shops in my day. Definitely not trying to be a hater. My friend and I were on our way home from Chicago, looked up some bakeries along our route. We stopped here to get some goodies to take home to family, and to snack and have a coffee while we drove 6 hours. My friend ordered: white chocolate coconut latte, 2 donut holes, a strawberry, a salted caramel, and a pink velvet cupcake. I ordered: chocolate pretzel iced latte, a big chocolate chip cookie, tropical fruit (?) danish, coconut, pink velvet, and French silk cupcakes. I'd say between the two of us we probably spent $60+? Walking in the shop is adorable and colorful, an employee had a brightly colored tie dye shirt on and we said hello to them first, commented on how much we liked their shirt, and barely got a response back, let alone a greeting. The employee at the counter wasn't rude but definitely not overly eager to greet or offer up information. Questions were answered when we asked, that was it. When I received my iced latte I asked if they had any straws and just got a head shake in response. Totally fine with no straw, but my friend found a stir stick for me, which was honestly the main reason I wanted a straw so I could stir up what was clearly sitting on the bottom of the cup. Lattes were fine. We tried the chocolate chip cookie in the car and the texture was good, crispier on the edges and the middle was chewy enough. But it tasted very bland, so we didn't finish it. A little while later we decided to try the donut holes, they had good flavor but they were so dry and crumbly, presumably because they were sitting out in the open air, who knows for how long. Also didn't finish those. Even later we decided to try the salted caramel cupcake because I'd read on the case that they had Swiss meringue buttercream so I was really excited about that, and thought for sure this would be where they would excel. While the flavor of the cake was fine, I wouldn't say it tasted like salted caramel, there was some kind of cream in the middle that was good, again not salty or caramely. But that was the heaviest, most dense cupcake I've ever had, and not in a good way. The buttercream was good, and the caramel drizzle on top did taste salty. My husband was so excited that I was bringing home that tropical fruit danish and the coconut cupcake. We tried the coconut cupcake together and again, it had a lot of actual coconut in the batter, it was dense but also dry. We abandoned the cake and ate buttercream, which was good but not coconutty. So we moved onto the French silk cupcake. This cake had a great texture, light and soft, good flavor, some kind of chocolate mousse in the middle was good too. Again, good buttercream, but the top had a bunch of dry, flavorless pie crust chunks all over it. I understand that it was supposed to mimic a French silk pie, but it was such a good cake without the crust chunks. My husband had his pastry today (next day) and though dry he said the middle was good, other than the pineapple in the middle he couldn't taste any other flavor. We tried the pink velvet after dinner tonight and again with the super heavy and dense cake texture, no real flavor, but the cream cheese frosting was yummy. I cannot say how the other cupcakes were, as my friend was so disappointed in the one we shared and the report we gave her about the ones we tried, that she hasn't eaten them. Ultimately the French silk one was the only item that was eaten completely. Keep making that buttercream, it was the best part of everything we bought. I sincerely hope your employees weren't having a hard day, I try to be understanding that you never know what someone is going through, but that's the only reason I can think of for them to be so completely disinterested in helping or talking to paying/tipping/polite customers.

Although there were umbrellas, the rain was still dripping over the tables, but our server kept a positive attitude even though we weren't able to change our seats to be inside. My dad enjoyed his skillet, and I got a panini, and I'm amazed by the huge portion sizes. The panini was good, with juicy chicken and a delicious subtle apricot spread. The fries are huge as well, and super crispy. Buttermilk's pancakes are probably my favorite pancakes, as they are light, soft, fluffy, and subtly sweet. This was a good spot for a casual brunch with family.

I love that there are unique Southern dishes like chicken and waffles, Southern fried chicken, and shrimp and grits. The coffee is hot, strong and accompanied by cute little baskets with individual creamers. The pancakes are super fluffy and served with a warm bottle of syrup. I am not a big fan of hot sauces as I don't eat spicy foods but had to dip a bite of chicken in the jalapeno hot sauce. It was really tasty and a tolerable amount of heat. I look forward to returning and trying even more versions of waffle or egg dishes here.

The frappe was also really good. My friend ordered the avocado toast, which she liked, but her caramel macchiato was off at first it tasted mostly like milk with a little caramel. They did fix it though, so I'll give them credit for that. Only downside was she ended up feeling like she got food poisoning afterward. The egg on her dish had a thin film on it, so we're thinking it might not have been fully cooked, which is concerning. Service itself was good and the staff was nice. Parking was also easy, which is always a plus. Good food overall, but that situation definitely threw things off a bit.

We were seated within about five minutes, and shortly afterward our server came to the table, did not introduce himself, took our water orders--and never returned. What made the situation especially uncomfortable was watching him remain attentive to the tables surrounding us while we continued to sit there without being acknowledged. At one point, he and I even made direct eye contact, yet he still did not come over or check on us. After nearly 20 minutes of being ignored, we finally decided to leave. I was genuinely disappointed, particularly because this was supposed to be the beginning of my birthday celebration and the menu looked fantastic. Unfortunately, I can't comment on the food because we were never given the opportunity to order. I understand that restaurants get busy and service can sometimes be delayed, but what bothered me most wasn't the wait--it was the lack of acknowledgment. A simple, "I'll be with you shortly," would have made an enormous difference. Unfortunately, the experience left us feeling unwelcome, and because of that, we won't be returning.
