| - Man, you gotta love this place! The vintage decor is great (they literally traded the newer chairs that were there with older more antique ones at Good Will). Accenting that is the eclectic vintage tunes (50's soul to 90's hip hop). And the food, truly the most important part; both meals that I've had there have been quite good. Their hash is nicely seasoned, and the first time they were perfectly creamy (the 2nd time they were fine, if slightly starchy.) The eggs were always done nicely, and the biscuit under the benny & croissant under the scramble pleased! The best part is how local and quality it all is though, which is exactly what I look for in a meal out. The coffee, while local, was a bit too bitter the 2nd visit (maybe they used less grounds the 1st time?) I've found OEB suffers from the problem too; even though it's well sourced beans the cup itself is quite bitter. Maybe they're using too many beans per batch? Whatever this, 4 creams per cup made it drinkable.
Truly the highlight was the service though. Both times I've been there we've been the only ones there, but the management went above & beyond. The 2nd time they opened 45 mins early just for us! Super friendly and eager to make our experience great, so far they're doin all the right things! I just hope that when they become more popular that they can keep up the high standard they've started with.
It's a great new breakie joint, get out there & try em!
