We really enjoy the atmosphere. Eventhough there was a lot of people there, it was still not noisy. We had fun visiting with the waitress. Everyone was very kind and helpful.

On 1/5/2026 Sarah North had this to say:
We stopped here while traveling. I had googled nearby restaurants and came upon this place and I'm so glad I did. The restaurant is so cute! I didn't realize we were coming during a Sunday brunch but once we saw the brunch we had to try that. Let me tell you it was the best brunch spread I've ever seen, I wish we had been prepared with bigger appetites! I wanted to try everything and everything I did try was so delicious. We live an hour and a half away but I think I'm going to have to drive back sometime just for this brunch. It seems like its becoming a rarity to have a good experience while dining out these days but I was blown away by their quality of food and service, 10/10 recommend!
