| - Have been here a few times and come with a friend who has been here at least twenty times in less than two years.
On the plus side:
- reliable quality food
- cozy dining room in winter, open floor-to-ceiling windows in summer
- unpretentious atmosphere and menu (no quinoa with chorizo and kale breakfast bowls or anything like that- and when you eat your smoked salmon eggs benny, that's alright!)
- decent prices (between fall and now, prices have gone up about a dollar with a new menu print-out)
- unlimited coffee
- if you come at the tail end of brunch on a weekend and there is no one waiting for a table, you can stay and chat with coffee, and linger without feeling bad
Cons:
- might get fast service one day, slow to greet and take orders another day
- backup kitchen and wait staff arrived at noon on a Sunday rush (seemed quite late given that the only server was rushing and doing everything for a dining room of 20 tables- hats off to her)
- if OJ comes with the breakfast, we were not told of this (perhaps we didn't read the menu well enough)
- if you're looking for interesting, innovative, super-healthy, local, trendy, hipster food/atmosphere, look elsewhere; this place is a reliable bet when you don't know where else to go or the wait is too long elsewhere
