| - OMG- I LOVE Oink. And I hate breakfast restaurants. So I guess that says a lot.
Tried it out on a whim one day and now I crave it- they have the BEST french toast. My husband rotates between pigs in a blanket and bacon pancakes. I initially was skeptical, especially after reading reviews. But, it's right across the street from an IHOP so I figured that they probably had something unique going on if they have been able to keep their lights on.
Once we decided to go in there and give Oink a try, I knew that we'd make a good choice. The pastry case with the bacon-maple donuts caught my attention, and It kept getting better- we received excellent service and ate excellent food. I'm really not sure why there aren't more 5 star reviews. One of these days, I'm going to have to be bad and get one of those donuts. Their pastry case seriously looks amazing, if you're trying to become a diabetic at breakfast.
We travel with a 1-year-old, so eating out is hard. Oink is the perfect place for us to go grab breakfast because it's noisy (read, always full), so I don't worry about my loud and messy baby, and it's fast (we have never been there more than 45 minutes from beginning to end.) It's always busy when we're there, but not too busy- longest wait I've had has been 5 minutes. We've gone there a handful of times since the first, and have never had the bad service people talk about, but maybe that's because we go early, closer to 8 (and we miss the after church crowd.) If you go in the winter months, be sure to sit on the patio- not much to look at (in the Target parking lot) but much more quiet.
