Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the friendly, welcoming staff, describing lovely people who always offer a smile and a thank you, with some regulars saying many of the same staff stayed on after the name change. Breakfast is a repeated reason to return, and diners call the food delicious and cheap. One reviewer praises the fruity and spicy tea cakes with real butter, and another describes a large mug of decaf tea made exactly as asked. A homely atmosphere and friendly regulars known by name come up too, and one visitor says their dogs loved it. The one critical account describes a late lunch visit where the grill was off. The reviewer got a BLT on a baguette with warmed bacon that was good, but heard that everything warm was off, and felt the focus was on what could not be done. Another reviewer notes the cafe closed for a day after a customer tested positive for covid, which they read as care for customers.
