| - The Perk is a friendly somewhat funky coffee, breakfast, lunch, and supper spot that will accommodate the appetites of varied guests quite well.
Although the menu and its items have changed names and style somewhat, the all-day breakfasts are very good. I usually get the 'famous cup of coffee' for breaky, but the omelettes are also large and look great.
The portobello burger, spinach lasagna, and reuben are also very good (they could be more generous with the corned beef), leading me to believe that all the menu items are also scrumptious.
The cherry and other pies are filled with fruit, and although the crust tends to be thick and not very flaky, the filling is worth it. I bought a whole cherry pie for take-out one day, and carried it home in their quality enamel pie-dish: such an honour system is rare these days, and after eating it at home over the course of several days, I returned the plate as if it was 50 years ago when such things were commonplace.
For those of us who like to rub shoulders with friends and new acquaintances alike, it's one place to be for a great visit.
Check it out for yourself, okay?
And see if you find it equally homey.
