This was a last minute change from initial plan. I actually called to check how late they serve breakfast. 1200, Noon. We were barely going to make it. Woman on the phone was willing to put in an order as long as I promised to show up... Of course! 

2 eggs bene came out within a couple minutes. 

Hollandaise is pretty good. Eggs were a little stiff.(I'm sure they'll do soft poach if ordered). So, I'll cut them a credit especially for being so polite. Unfortunately, the home fries don't get a free pass, frozen potatoes.. Yuck 🤮 

Cute spot with some outdoor seating. Coffee was good and they have WiFi.

So, I'll overlook the home fries since overall it's a nice spot for chow..."Yay."

Cute place. Tiny menu. Potential for daily specials, not for breakfast today. 

No worries, what we had was tasty. They also have beer/wine. And some baked goods, which was yummy. 

Wifi & tap n' pay 

"Yay!"

Very unexpected chance for breakfast while at work. Pleasantly surprised. 

Eggs nicely poached, muffin was soft. Hollandaise wasn't very flavorful, but, better than the many bad tasting versions I've had. 

Potatoes were firm, not el dente, and didn't even need salt. Believe it or not, I even ate the greens. 

"Yay!"

Cash only = automatic "Nay!" 

And the food wasn't worthy. Hash was supposed to be "homemade", I'd say more like modified canned hash. Homefries don't come with the dish, order separate. They were lousy, soft potatoes and the generic all spice. We didn't even get coffee refills. 

Definitely a "Nay!"
