The BEC Sandy had plenty of egg on it and was tasty. Portions were decent but not huge. The restaurant is long and narrow so it doesn't have a lot of out of the way places. It was also brightly lit. Coffee was good and they had a good selection of premium coffee drinks as well. Service was friendly and our server checked in on us appropriately and filled coffee as needed.

The French toast is amazing and I love french toast, I had some with my omelet. The omelet is a thinner version. Cooked on a flat top, folded and filled beautifully with all the goodies I requested. It was delicious! I ate far more of both the omelet AND the french toast! Yummmm. My partner had the sampler (top left on the menu). The server said you had to try it. It had eggs, meat, a side of French toast, AND a 1/4 biscuit with gravy! We took a bite of the sausage with a bite of the biscuit and gravy which was perfect! All the food was good as was the coffee (which had beautiful full flavor and wasn't watered down... momma likes some STRONG COFFEE and theirs was perfect!

Thanks to the owner who cooks and the great chefs, as well as the other owner who is present everyday to greet and converse with customers! The owners have a great, powerful story about how they started. This diner has a very warm atmosphere and you feel welcomed everytime you step inside. It has a nice nostalgic feel that draws in people of all ages. I've had many of the menu items and I can say that everything was cooked as you expect it to be. Soft, cheesy omelettes with fresh vegetables. Soft scrambled eggs that just have that "home cooked by your grandma when you were a kid" feel. Crispy hash-browns. Sausage is great. Toast is always buttered and crisp. Man. Gonna go eat there tomorrow now that I'm talking about them, lol. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and hospitality received here. They are doing a great job at Gravy's Diner, I recommend literally anyone to try this place at-least once. You won't be disappointed. One of the best breakfast spots in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area. They're open super early! For those who work in the morning and need a happy start to their days before work. Biscuits and gravy were so good.

Here are our thoughts below! Food/Drink: Monster Cookie (Yum! This cookie was HUGE, soft, and delicious. Rating = 8/10). Hot Cinnamon Roll Latte (This tasted nearly identical to a warm, gooey, cinnamon roll! Be warned - it is a very sweet beverage. Rating = 7.7/10). Iced Hazelnut Latte (YES! This is basically almost as good as it gets when it comes to a latte. Absolutely scrumdidilyumptious. Rating = 9/10). Service: The service here could not have been better! Our barista's name was Brianna, and she had a phenomenal attitude. She looked excited to help us out and appears to love her job. Her passion for her job truly shined through during our time in the shop. Ambiance: As mentioned above, this review is based on our visit to the First Street location in Cedar Falls. It has a much different vibe than the College Hill location. The First Street location is not quite as "homey" as the College Hill cafe and has more of a coffee chain feel (not as much unique character that I typically enjoy with local coffee brands). The College Hill location, on the other hand, has much more personality. It is an excellent place to get some work done, read a book, or meet up with friends! All in all - we undoubtedly had a 5-star experience at Sidecar this past weekend. Excellent food and drink and some of the best service we've received in a while!
