Well I can certainly see why this place is a local institution. I went there for the first time on Father's Day with my in laws, and I bet it was the only place in the city with no wait for Father's Day brunch, and such quick service.
All the waitresses were friendly and fast, and I loved the décor! So many fun things on the walls to look at, very homey. I got the skillet breakfast which was quite good (whatever bread they use for their toast is amazing, and I loved the hash). My husband got the pancakes, and I have to say they are the best pancakes I've ever eaten at a restaurant!!! I don't usually like sweet food for breakfast but I could have happily had an entire plate of those.
Definably a cozy, family friendly place.
