Mr. Man and I stopped by for breakfast on a Friday morning and he ordered the breakfast buffet for $7.95. BB choices were B&G, scrams, link sausage, bacon and french toast. I wanted to order off the menu and the $2.95 special of the day was listed as "Silver Dollar Pancakes and Sausage". Pancakes sounded good, so I ordered and Mr. Man headed to the buffet.
He tried to eat as slowly as he could as I waited, and waited, and waited. After thirty minutes, I was served eight tiny cold pancakes, yes, they were no bigger than a silver dollar, they weren't kidding on that - one bite each. The cold pancakes were not handled well; torn and smooshed. Since the two link sausages came off the buffet, I can assume it was the server letting the pancakes sit cold, but when she set the plate in front of me and I exclaimed "Really? I waited thirty minutes for THIS?", she promptly blamed it on a disorganized kitchen, because they weren't that busy. The place was maybe, maybe 1/3 full.
Bottom line is that the waitresses did an awesome job of ignoring the customers and the kitchen did an even better job of not sending out food on time or hot. Mr. Man said the breakfast buffet was okay, nothing extraordinary nor offputting. The best cafe on Pomme de Terre lake, "Outfitters" in Nemo, closed last January and the search for a decent breakfast joint for us weekenders continues because Tadpole's failed miserably. We will absolutely NOT be back. read more
