| - After reading some great things about this place, myself and my boyfriend decided to check it out one Sunday morning. I'm also planning on opening up my own breakfast cafe in the near future, so visiting and comparing various breakfast places is also helpful for my own market research.
Our first impression when we arrived was comfy. It wasn't very busy so we were seated right away. The service was friendly and fast, although when we asked if the heater beside our table could be turned on (it was chilly), we were assured that it would be, but unfortunately this did not occur. So we were pretty much glued to our cups of coffee to keep us warm, which was very tasty. The waitress was even kind enough to inform us of where their coffee came from, a nice touch of table side romance.
Little things I noticed (I'm all about the small details) is the table sugar was stored in a container used for salt, which when poured streamed out at a snails pace. I liked the menu though, only one page and very simple, although a bit pricey. But seeing as the location is a prime one, I guess this makes sense.
We ordered the Breakfast Platter ($13) and were told that it was quite filling for once person, so for two it would hit the spot. And seeing as I always ate less than my boyfriend anyway, we thought this would be the perfect choice. As an add on to the dish, we could also choose a side of beef for $2, but we substituted for bacon and sausage.
Our meal was delivered approximately 25 minutes after ordering, which was quite a wait considering it wasn't a busy morning (two other occupied tables). The pancakes were nice and fluffy, although our sausage and bacon were quite disappointing, with one and a half strips of bacon and two sausages the size of a pinky finger. The sausage was good with a spiciness to it which was lovely. Our eggs came out fried even though we asked for poached.
All in all, the Breakfast Platter didn't hit the spot at all, as we were still quite hungry afterwards.
The bill was $27 in total, although we noticed we were charged $3 for the one and a half strips of bacon and $3 for the two pinky size sausages. When we questioned this discrepancy (as it said $2 side on the menu), and our surprise at the ridiculous price, we were given an embarrassed shrug from the waitress.
Even though the food was good, we will not be coming back.
