On 10/19/2026 Tena Hurst-Grivas had this to say:
Ok, I'm going to review both times we have gone there... The first time was for dinner and this time was brunch. Dinner was AMAZING 🤩 it was sooooooooo good ! Home Made which made all the difference. The brunch was great as well! From Eggs Benedict to turkey and stuffing and the dessert table was huge!!! From cookies, pies, kolachkis, pudding , cakes, you name it and it was there and it was so nicely set up! My kids absolutely loved it and they are in their 30's

This past weekend Hanks did a Harry Potter themed Sunday Brunch. It was perfect timing for my Wife's birthday. All the amazing themed cakes and candies. Even with all the tasty treat my favorite was the Shepard pie. Oh my gosh give me more! This place is a local treasure.
