You know, I've been coming to the Coffee Pot for 20 years, and i've never reviewed the spot. No idea why, because it's an institution in Lakewood and I wish I could carbon copy it to every place i've ever lived.
Coffee Pot is the golden standard for which all breakfast joints should be held to. It's friendly and local, and the service is always prompt and cheerful. The food is the kind of delectable and simple, no-nonsense breakfast fare that i've always craved on sleepy weekend mornings. I love the poached eggs and pancakes, and I love the mom and pops feel to the environment.
Given my druthers, i'd come to the Coffee Pot for breakfast every day.
