I LOVE a good brunch place. This is a good brunch place…read more I ordered their biscuits and gravy and their pop'd hearts. I like their idea of making things from scratch. The biscuits and gravy was very yum with a good amount of spice. The eggs and potatoes were nothing out of the ordinary. The pop'd hearts were a very sweet pastry that I shared with my sister. Our server was so so kind. Would love to come back and try more.

I'm not sure how I just found this place, but I'm so glad I did! There was a short wait when I…read morearrived, but the tables turned over quickly. The host worked to get everyone seated as quickly as he could. A server was at the table almost immediately for our drink order, and they were served in no time. There is quite a selection of breakfast and lunch items to choose from, and I settled on The Classic. I really liked the option for a small cake instead of toast, and I enjoyed that tremendously! The ham steak was thick, juicy, and flavorful, and the eggs were scrambled perfectly. The hash browns were a little bland, and I would rather have had an option for breakfast potatoes instead. But the meal was good and reasonably priced for the portions. For those who like coffee, there is a wide selection of options. The place is cozy inside with warm colors and all of the workers were extremely friendly in their interactions with customer. I felt very welcome and the table was well taken care of throughout the meal. The restaurant itself is nestled in a strip mall off the main street, so it isn't something I would know was there if I were just driving by. But now that I know it is here, I will definitely make a return trip to try additional items on the menu that caught my attention (I'm looking at you apple and blueberry bread, cinnamon rolls, and crake!)

We went with daughter and granddaughters for a later brunch. Got right in around 11:30 on a…read moreSaturday and got our orders in. We started off with the Apple Cinnamon Blueberry Bread. WOW! It's a delicious, gooey, and dipping it in the syrup makes it even more decadent. I got the Turkey Melt this time around. It was good, but maybe not my favorite. As advertised, just not too exciting. One of the kids got the Cheeseburger and fries and devoured it. All the rest got breakfast items and loved them. Pancakes, eggs, bacon, etc., were all great. Very clean, service was great, and prices very fair.

We've driven by this place and talked about stopping for food before and my wife had been there with co-workers after work one day, but this was our first stop for food. A clean, modern storefront greets you (see picture) and with plenty of televisions and a nice patio, it looks to be a hopping place once the temperatures warm up a little. While our server was a little hard to find at times, we both found our food to be quite good. My wife ordered the Nacho Burrito Meal (see picture) and I opted for the Honey Citrus salad (see picture). As is our custom, we shared samples of each of our meals and both of us found both choices to be worthy of ordering again. I really liked the clean, crisp and fresh salad with a delicious tangy dressing and the Burrito was tasty inside and out (loved the creamy, cheesy sauce). If you are looking for a great stop for Sunday morning brunch (possibly after some shopping at Sam's Club just across the interstate to the North), you won't go wrong here!

Both times I have been so happy with my burgers but especially the last time because I added a garlic aioli to it and it was divine. The sweet potato fries are so good as well.

The service is fast and the ambiance seems good too. I'd like to try going here for brunch because I've heard good things about it as well. Their patio seems perfect for spring/summer time. I'll keep you all updated if I dine in here anytime soon.

Queue the Yelp research, and enter The Breakfast Club! Great reviews abound for the various locations of TBC, and this location, specifically, was only a couple turns off our interstate route through town! We arrived at 11:00 am on a Monday, hoping it would be perfectly between the breakfast and lunch rushes, and sure enough, it was! We were seated right away. The dining room is bright, colorful and fun! There were many families around, and a party of folks celebrating a birthday! Nice, diverse crowd, leading to a good overall vibe! Our waitress was wonderful, if a bit overworked. She wasn't as "attentive" as one would prefer, but you could tell that she was super busy tending to all her tables, which were too many for one person to really see over in an ideal situation. Between the four of us, we ordered a smattering of different types of food: sweet, savory, heavy and light. The kids and mom all got chai tea lattes, which were fantastic! The food came out pretty quick, and everything was very good! I'd say the winner at our table was my son's Smores Pancakes! I'm sure many folks would say they were "too rich", but they were RIGHT up my alley! (Yes, like all good dads, I totally stole a bite!! ...or three!) This is situated in a seemingly really nice part of town - lots of shopping, eating, and hotels are nearby, and highway access was super convenient!

I've been meaning to try this place ever since I learned there was a WDM location. Located in a…read morestrip mall at the corner of Grand and EP True (by the HyVee), the decor is nothing special but it was light and bright inside. We were greeted and asked if we were dining in (it appears they do a brisk takeout business) and were told to sit where we wanted. It was surprisingly crowded for a Sunday afternoon at 4 pm. The menu is extensive and hubby and I both like Mediterranean food. I chose the Falafel plate, served with five falafel balls, hummus, a pita, and Greek salad. The portion was generous (ended up taking two falafel home). Served with tahini and their house green sauce (olive oil, cilantro, and jalapeño) It wasn't spicy but it was so delicious - I could get addicted to this thinking of all the other ways so could enjoy it!! The Greek salad was served with house dressing - garlic and yogurt, also very good. The falafel was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and flavorful. The hummus was not at all grainy - smooth but just a tad bland. Hubby had the lamb skewers and liked them very much. Served with rice, salad, and hummus. He also took one of the skewers home. We both had the mango Fresca juice. A bit too sweet for me but I generally drink unsweetened beverages. Hubby liked it a lot. Service was friendly and we were checked on twice to ask how we liked our food. Generous portions, friendly service, good food, but not inexpensive (with tip, $55 for two) but what is inexpensive these days?? We enjoyed reading the story of the couple who started this restaurant, and I'm glad we finally had a chance to try it?

The wait staff was very welcoming to their neighborhood regular seniors whom seemed to enjoy their daily meal of choice, in the small nondescript atmosphere. The sign on the door ( caught my eye) about the high prices of eggs forcing them to charge the extra .50 cents per egg is even more reason why we should support our local small scale cafes especially places where neighbors seem to love to conjugate.

I highly recommend their honey bee latte, I get it every time and almost always want one to go. I'm also currently Gluten Free so when I see pancakes as an option it's a must! Only downside is I wish their waiting area was larger. When it's cold or windy it gets over crowded.
