I felt like I was home having breakfast here. It’s a small place because it is a café but the people here welcomed me and treated me like I was their family. I had their delicious strawberry crepes and my bf had an omelet with potatoes and biscuits. Not too shabby and their prices were pretty good. The service was fantastic. Now I know a good breakfast place around my area. Awesome job guys!

came in on a Sunday morning, around 9:30. we were able to get a table for 2 adults, and 2 kids. they gave the kids coloring pages, and crayons, which was nice to keep them busy. I ordered a bacon and mushroom omelette. it was cooked well, other than the egg shell I crunched on… I understand it happenes, but it’s a total turn off! the mushrooms were nice and big sliced, which I enjoyed! they also used marble cheddar:)another plus. my child got the pancake, an egg, and bacon. all was well cooked. my friend food looked great as well. the service was a bit slow, and nobody had much personality, but… oh well;)

We were out here early in the morning and grabbed breakfast. James had the croissant sandy and I had an omelette. He loved his sandwich, however, my omelette was more filled with cheese than the actual add-​ins I paid for. Cute place, good food, super relaxed and quiet in the morning, and they have a punch card!

This is a family own restaurant that I come over for breakfast sometimes. The food is getting much better but some of the waitress since so sad to be working, besides Donna who has served us with a huge smile and amazing attitude. Thank you for the service Donna

My family doesn’t really eat out for breakfast a lot, but this restaurant is defiantly a go to. I went here with my friend and his family and the server was super sweet and loved saying funny stuff that made us laugh. I had an omelet and bacon. The omelet was delusions and the sausage, cheese and eggs inside were perfectly cooked and spread evenly through out it instead of other omelets were the sausage is in one corner and the cheese is in the other. I want to go there again!

1st time here. Food was ok, ate breakfast around noon and the potatoes were not fresh. Son had the biscuits and gravy and said those were really good. Kids pizza is a Red Baron pizza, was thinking this would be more home made.

Move over Paradise and Kneaders. This is hands down the best sandwich place evah. I’ve been half a dozen times and each time I leave in a happy food coma. (Went for dessert once, lunch every other time.) I’ve also done carry out a couple times.
The waitresses are always friendly and chatty. The atmosphere fun with a trendy-​cozy feel. And, um, the sandwiches? To die for.

Went for breakfast at nine in the morning. On the menu was a burger with egg. When it came out i cut it down the middle waiting for the gooey egg. Nothing. Called waitress over and pointed out the problem. She disappeared saying sorry. Waited as food got colder. Gave up and ate part of food. She came by later to say she would take off cost of egg. Got bill with no deduction. Never will go back

I’m giving them only 1 star because the service is horrible… the waitresses look like they hate life or maybe just working there and we had to wait forever for our food. The food was ok definitely not worth the drive.

This was my first visit to this small family run Café. The menu had several choices both breakfast and lunch were available. As well as a large dessert selection. I had the Arizona. Roast beef, Havarti, and sliced green chilis (enough to cover the entire sandwich!). This was a grilled sandwich on Sour dough with Parmesan Cheese grilled in. Unique and tasty. I would order this again but next time with grilled chicken instead of the roast beef.

I’ve been to this café a handful of times now and always received a solid meal. They serve breakfast and lunch, plus they have shakes and homemade fudge. Their regular coffee is goo but I’m not a fan of their specialty coffees or chai.
I’m a vegetarian so I’ve only had their veggie sandwich with green chiles. It was good and the veggies were fresh. They serve boars head meats and my daughters like their rotisserie chicken sandwich.
I’ve mostly had their breakfast offerings and they are a decent choice. My one dislike is their fried potatoes. Their not my favorite. Overall a good breakfast /​lunch spot.
*Note: any review prior to 2.5 years ago would have been reviews of the former owners.*

My husband and I each ordered a different sandwich and then we swapped halves so we could try both types. We had the Chicken Avocado Sandwich and the Rotisserie Chicken Sandwich. Both were amazing! The first had a sweet taste due to cinnamon apples on it. The second was savory. We highly recommend both. We will be back for both!

Dropped in for a quick bite while helping a friend move. It’s a seat yourself, cozy place. Promptly greeted at our table by a nice young man and placed our order; Charlie’s Rotisserie, an Ultimate Omelet and the children’s Pepperoni Pizza. Food came quickly, hot and SUPER delicious. Impressed with the portion sizes and their yummy fries that are crispy outside and soft on the inside. Staff seems friendly and was helpful. Glad we dropped in and discovered this great little gem! (BONUS, their water is filtered and tastes great!)

Walked in today with a friend and they were crowded. We couldn’t stay anyway. Wanted to order something to go. We ordered toast. She said its going to be a wait for it. And I said for what the toast? And she said yes. About 20−25minutes. I was shocked and thought it was a joke cuz only needed to put it in the toaster and hand me some butter and jam. They said we have other people waiting. I said for toast? U could actually tell a customer to wait 25 minutes for toast? I then realized in this place, the staff sucks. U will be out of business with staff who have no idea how to work in the food industry. You just lost my business and my friends with that idiotic response. And I used to frequent the place often.

First the bad: I was surprised they even served the fries the way they did… burned. We ordered takeout and didn’t realize it until we got home. Very disappointing. They were terrible.
The good: The sandwiches were pretty good. The Pastrami was just ok, but French dip and Apple Burger were good. The cinnamon mayo or whatever on the burger was real tasty. Just check those fries before you leave.

I go 15 minutes the opposite direction to grab a sandwich on my way home from work.
This is my favorite place to recommend to friends, take family when they’re visiting or birthday lunch with a group.
I’ve only ever eaten the lunch and dinner menu and even then don’t stray from the sandwiches.
I love the friendliness of the employees– they are always so pleasant even when the place is packed.
Sometimes it can be slow but it doesn’t stop me from going back.

This place was pretty good! Forget all the chains — Dennys, IHOPm and Village Inn don’t have anything on this place. It just tasted… more homemade to me. Serving sizes might have been a little smaller than the aforementioned places but didn’t leave me starving.
My guest also enjoyed their meal. The service was good too, with multiple people checking on you (it’s a small place).
It also looks like if you wanted to sit outside that it is dog friendly. Will stop by again.

The Apple Dumpling Café was an awesome resteraunt! :D
I ordered the waffle with chocolate chips baked into it. My meal was amazing!!!
There were so many chocolate chips in that thing, everyone should eat here! IT’S SO AWESOMEEEE!!!
The bacon was cooked to perfection and my son couldn’t stop talking about how wonderful the sausage was.
