In search of a filling, classic American breakfast? This is a great choice then. The menu is simple but filled with good 'ole favorites like pancakes and omelets - and served in a real fire station... well, it used to be a fire station anyway.
My husband and I stopped in for an early morning breakfast here while on vacation. We'd tried a few other venues (all closed at 6am) but didn't want the run of the mill pancake chain food. This place fit the bill perfectly.
The staff was quick, pleasant and did a great job paying attention to our empty coffee mugs.
Everything seemed to be made from scratch and was pretty tasty although the coffee was a bit weak for my palette. My husband had biscuits & gravy - it was a huge serving, and I had eggs, hash-browns and French Toast. It was all yummy and there was no canned sausage in the gravy, contrary to what other reports have mentioned.
Crowded and quirky, the atmosphere seemed a chaotic and a bit cramped, yet seemed to bolster the charm of the place even more. And regardless, this restaurant is a step up from the national pancake chains. Given the chance,...
Read moreA cute little hidden gem right on the far east part of town. The food is home and country-style breakfast and lunch. If you are missing that taste of homemade food made with love and care and don't want to cook it yourself, this is the spot for you. You can snuggle up in the winter and read a book with a hot steaming cup of coffee or hot chocolate or munch on a sandwich right before heading out of town from the fair. If you haven't been you absolutely need to visit. Nothing quite compares to the taste of locally owned and operated restaurants.
The only 4-star rating I gave was for the atmosphere due to the incredibly need for a back parking lot and the last time I was here I was freezing next to the door. I'm certain this is something that they are working on. Really though, I'm sure they wouldn't mind- to get the full comfort feel down home feel, next time I might just bring a...
Read moreMy wife and I were looking for a good place to eat that was locally owned. I got the breakfast burrto with ham and hash browns. I had a choice of homemade salsa or picante sauce with my burrito and I choose the salsa. The homemade salsa was unbelievably good. My wife ordered the French toast and there were four pieces. The bread pieces were big and thick and they took up the entire plate. The portions were big and the food was delicious. The service was excellent and the prices were reasonable. It looked like the business was family owned. The cafe is located in an old small firestation. This is a small "hole in the wall cafe" which for me, is what I loved about it. It is a seat yourself cafe. The atmosphere was obviously a fireman theme. Great food, good service, and we will...
