Was in the area from out of town, and the outside of Turning Point looked inviting. I and my companion decided to give them a try since we hadn't had a meal yet and we were in store for a 6.5 hr drive back home. With capacity limited to less than 50% because of Covid, they were only seating tables out on a back enclosed patio area that had its windows open, but had portable heating towers keeping things warm. We were informed it'd be a 20-25min wait, but it ended up being maybe half that. The host/mgr was very friendly and struck up a conversation, as he saw my new car paperwork folder, inquired about it, and asked where we were from. That helped pass the time. The decor and atmosphere were very nice and had that modern yet cozy feel. The menu is very breakfast and lunch focused, but the selection is pretty diverse, lots to choose from. The server was friendly and attentive. Being from NE Ohio, I got a kick out of the almost New York type accents, but we were basically on the outskirts of Philadelphia so that's to be expected. Yet the town had an almost New England feel to it. Our meals were served promptly and were delicious. My own slight complaint is that the prices seemed a bit high. But again, I'm from a lower cost of living area of the country, and we were not far from Philly. Overall a very good place to get...
Read moreI have always had great experiences at this location. I love the fact that they offer vegan options and have never had an issue until today. The staff is friendly and service has always been wonderful. Today however was the last time I will dine there. For starters we ordered lattes with oatmilk and I watched the young man pour whole milk to froth. Because we were sat at the counter I stopped him and asked if that was for us. He was very apologetic and immediately started over. Next I ordered a Just Egg omelette while commenting on the selection of other vegan options. I should also mention I am wearing a shirt that says VEGAN in bold print and have a large Vegan tattoo on my forearm. When the food arrived I should have double checked that my omelet was made with Just Egg but assumed it was made correctly unfortunately. I had a few bites before noticing that my omelet really tasted a bit to eggy to be vegan. I asked my daughter to taste it and she suspected it was real egg. When the bill arrived our suspicions were confirmed. I was served an egg omelette. Considering the fact that I haven’t consumed animal products since 2017 this did not sit well with my stomach. Needless to say The rest of the morning has been spent in the...
Read moreWe went to Turning Point early to beat the crowds. We ordered the Catalina Cornbread French Toast (Griddled cornbread French toast topped with fresh cut strawberries, blackberries, pineapple, banana, toasted coconut & sweet bourbon sauce) and the French Toast Dippers (Cinnamon sugar French toast sticks drizzled with cheesecake frosting served with sweet bourbon sauce & warm strawberry reduction for dipping) from the seasonal menu. We also had the Big Easy Benedict (Cornbread, avocado, Cajun spiced onions & peppers, chicken chorizo, 2 poached eggs &. Creole spiced hollandaise).
There was no waitlist per the website but we did have to wait about 5 minutes after we arrived. They must be short handed because some people had to wait for tables even though the restaurant had plenty of empty tables. Our server was training a new person. Our order was correct. We received our drinks and foods quickly.
When we left, the restaurant was not crowded. When we drove by Cross Keys, there was a line outside and Perkins’ parking lot was full. Not sure what is going on with the Doylestown...
