Went to this location while on vacation. It was the worst experience I have ever had. I am a chef and we decided to go to a restaurant for brunch instead of drive thru. We waited an hour for our breakfast and wasn’t even checked...on. Lots of people came in after us and got served right away. When I went up to ask if our order was put into the kitchen I was informed that it was just being out on the grill. 1 minute later when our food came out which was 4 breakfast it was cold and barely edible. We weren’t offered and daily specials nor coffee. Didn’t give us salt and pepper. I believe it was a race issue cause 2 people in our party was black and they were looking down making different faces towards our table. As a chef, I know that eggs bacon and toast can get out of a kitchen faster then an hour. Will never visit this location ever and I will be getting it invested furtherMore

Have visited before for lunch, but this was our first breakfast visit. Pretty disappointing for the price. Food we ordered was dropped off, no offer of salt/pepper or ketchup. What child doesn’t want ketchup with their eggs? My scrambled eggs were dry, and not fluffy...which in a nice cafe surprised me. Seems like nice clean restaurant and the coffee bar looks amazing. Don’t have high expectations and perhaps you’ll be surprised. Will try lunch again, but will not return for breakfast.More

First time at this cafe, coffee was delicious and I had a peanut butter ball which I have to say is the best one I've ever had at a cafe. I believe it had Rice Krispies inside as well? Well it certainly hit the spot...for my sweet tooth! I would surely return if needed come caffeine and a treat :)More

Friendly service, food was amazing. The best eggs Benedict I ever had. Coffee was served in large cups and was delicious. Make sure you love chocolate chips in your pancakes if you choose that item, loaded with chocolate.

Seated just before 11 AM. Waitress arrived at 11:02 (breakfast officially stopped at 11). Asked if breakfast was available as it was my preference and after checking with the kitchen request denied. Though very disappointed plan B was implemented, and I ordered a BLT. Saying...the BLT was a disaster would be an understatement. After searching the entire sandwich I found one piece of tomato approximately 1 x 1.5 inches the thickness of a kleenex. The quantity of chicken on my wife's sandwich was only marginally better. My wife mentioned the shortfall but nothing was returned except attitude. Over and out.More

First and last time, my sandwich had next to no chicken and the cheese looks like it might have been grated in with maybe tablespoon worth. Not even melted. The bread was just plain white bread which is completely wrong… a Pannnii Is made with...bread that stands on its own: focaccia, ciabatta or a whole grain baguette, for example. Avoid light, airy bread such as sourdough. It doesn't grill as well and may become flattened and dry. It was the worst sandwich I have ever had.More

Heard lots of great things. Good curb appeal, average asthetics inside, clean. Our orders were taken right away and drinks as well. I ordered the Champion Breakfast because I was very hungry and was expecting it to be large or on a platter. Its 2...eggs, hash browns, toast, bacon ham and sausage. Overall the portion size was not a Champion Breakfast, it was on a normal plate. Small eggs, a scattering of hash browns, very thin bacon, 2 sausages were good, and thin ham. Toast was homemade and thick- which was good. Also, we had to ask for refills on our coffee rather than being offered. I was expecting more and we both left hungry with a $42.00 bill. You should never leave breakfast hungry and especially at that price.More
