We heard high praises of this place so we decided to have birthday lunch there as we live nearby. We figured it might be busy for Mother's Day weekend so we were okay with waiting. Upon arrival, they had a wait-list so we only waited 5 minutes for our table. We had just sat down and server asked if we were ready to order. Mind you we just sat down. Haven't eaten at that place before. Asked nicely for few more minutes. After our order was taken, we never saw the server again. The bus boy delivered our meals to our table enough to walk away before we could ask for drinks refills, napkins and more ketchup. 3 of 6, of us had our hand up saying excuse me to bus boy, 2 servers that walked by us. Alot of tables had just left so busboy was cleaning table next to us and we kindly said excuse me. He walked away. Of course new customers walks in the server and bus boy helped them. We decided we couldn't finish our delicious meal without some drink and decided we will just be nice to see ourselves out soon as a server (not ours) handed us the check then proceed to ask if we needed anything after 20 minutes of trying to get attention, we were polite to be little loud but we were ingored (their body language showed too).

Now for the food, nice Caesar salad and burger for lunch, simple, nothing amazing. The prices are typical for this hot tourist area, so expected. Service was a little slow, but we enjoyed sitting in the covered deck area. It was a bit awkward that our check arrived way before our food, but no big deal. All and all a nice stop and respite on the crazy Route 1, good simple food, nice staff, and generally a...
Read moreCafe where the espresso machine doesn't work. Service very unpleasant. Lady threw a menu on the table, when we said we would only have coffee, the lady didn't even wait for what kind and brought us a mug of black coffee, which she spilled on the table and leave it like this. Since their machine didn't work, they didn't offer any other coffee, so we politely took the mug away saying that we didn't want this. No interest from the staff, no apology. It looked like we were bothering them terribly. Otherwise looks nice and warm but after this we did not want stay there. So visit the cafe when the service is better and you can have coffee other than black...
