I like little spots to snag coffee while I work or find a quiet breakfast. I also like places that serve ginormous pancakes at 2pm, converse with me only when I look like I want to be chatted up, and are owner-operated. They meet all of these marks.
I might see a few too many Sysco boxes, but the quality of the house-made pies show that they're still doing scratch production.
I do have to say though, that the ladies who work here might have to go a little crazy when it gets busy, but it serves to show how much business this place deservedly brings in.
