I'm from the NYC & I'm used to eating at good restaurants that have breakfast and brunch. One of them is Original pancake house, they are really good. A year ago my wife and I moved up north to Monroe and we're worried about having a good restaurant to go to after church as we have had bad experiences with the quality of restaurants in Monroe.
However, I stumbled upon this gem one day as I was suffering. Decided to go here after church. My wife was very skeptical to try this place out as it isn't very restauranty from the outside, but she gave it a shot and the bet turned out to be a diamond in the sky!
Atmosphere: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The place isn't very big, however I don't really care about the looks.
Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I haven't asked their names yet, but I guess this is a family owned business and they have great discipline, customer service, and are very cordial.
Food: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The food is exceptional and hits the spot with every bite! The cappuccino looks like semi-machine made, but the taste is outstanding especially the way they present it in a transparent cup going with the trend. The classic eggs Benedict is the way to go.
Price: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The prices at the restaurant is unbelievable (touchwood). Most items are less than 15$ and it's satisfying to see a good menu with low prices.
At the end of the day, I would give this place a...
Read moreBeen a patron of this place for over a decade and will not be coming back. Our waitress didn’t even ask us once if we needed anything or refilling of coffee in over 25 minutes, and then proceeded to bring my soup out with my meal when I had asked another waitress about it 15 minutes prior (she also helped us with the coffee refills). Then I was asked by the woman at the counter while checking out if I was a waiter prior because I told her the soup should come before the meal? The waitress should be the one to ask me this, and then said it was because they were busy? Excuse me? For one I have been a waiter, and two my father has owned luncheonettes for over 40 years so I do know what a good waitress is. We were very polite the whole time until we were met with an attitude to give us what was right. The girl at the counter had an attitude and said that the soup was like an appetizer, so I said yes when is an appetizer served? With the meal or before it? Then she said “oh it’s like an appetizer” okay LOL. 40 min for a chicken wrap and a soup, unbelievable. Shame because the...
Read moreUpdate 6/18/2022: Went here today for a quick breakfast with my dad. We had to wait for a table to be cleared before being sat. we only waited about 5 minutes for that tho. We promptly were sat down, and then was greeted by our server. We ordered 2 coffees for drinks, and ordered full stack of blueberry pancakes, and the short stack of oreo pancakes. we also ordered a side of hash browns that we both shared. Everything was delicious, and it was only 24.00 for 2 people. that really isn't bad! Will probably be back again soon!
Original: Crossroads is a small cafe that is around an intersection, so we pass it everyday! It is small, as it only has about 10 tables. Service is also good, although had to find the waitress to get our check, but it's okay. Awesome breakfast menu as they have omelets, pancakes, waffles, and eggs. I ordered the Reese pancakes, which were delicous. They also have a lunch menu, but i haven't tried their menu yet. Definetely...
