★★★☆☆ 3.0 Natalie Levine · Aug 2025

This place is almost great. I would have placed it four stars for my meal - a flavorful breakfast burrito with added impossible sausage - but no one else at my table particularly liked their meal. Donut breakfast sandwich and blueberry pancakes both were sub-par for a place that seems like they would excel at these options. And coffee was meh. But mimosa flight was fun! Seems like the menu quality is quite variable overall. The inside is vintage and cute like you want it and there’s a pleasant quiet courtyard in the back. It’s nice for what it is - especially the veggie and vegan options. A bit disappointing for a first try, but it’s still worth another visit.

It is very hard for me to find a place where I can eat at with my food restrictions (I am lactose and gluten intolerant). Eating here i had so many options and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. I got a breakfast bowl and me and my partner shared the almond joy waffle. We could barely tell the waffle was gluten free, the lactose free cheese on my breakfast bowl was stringy (beautiful cheese pull), and the fresh squeezed orange juice was delicious. The staff was super nice and we never felt neglected at our table despite the place being very busy. They have a whole vegan menu and gluten free options are clearly labeled on the whole menu. They have tvs around the place with cartoons and kid friendly movies being played - if you have kids i think they'd be entertained but I do no

It has a kind of modern diner atmosphere, I really like donuts so I was happy for the mix of the donuts and the diner breakfast. The ideas are good, the portions are fairly large, sometimes huge. We ordered at 2 pm (they are open until 3pm) and the only donut that they had left was the coconut donut. It was really nice, next time we aim to arrive earlier to try a different one too though. My only problem was that the donut that they have in the donut breakfast sandwich was way too oily for my taste, I wish it came with the same type of dough like the one in the coconut donut. The pickle fries were really nice too that it had spices in the batter, but it didn't have enough pickles, i like it if it has thicker pickle pieces because it was soaked in oil, it was too thin.

I love this place! The food is so good, it takes me a while to figure out my order because it's hard to narrow it down to just one thing 😋 Also I love the fun phrases on their coffee cups.

Fun place to eat! This restaurant had an extensive menu with food that you would expect at any diner. However, they also had unique dishes based on their donuts. I got the donut French toast and it was scrumptious! My husband got the Buffalo chicken wrap. Our 2 kiddos shared an adult portion of macaroni and cheese and they raved about it. We all shared a plate of chicken tenders for an appetizer. The alcoholic drinks were delicious- I ordered their Bloody Mary and my husband got a spicy strawberry margarita. They also have an extensive vegan menu and vegan donuts. Their donut case was irresistible- so we grabbed a small box of donuts to take home! Service was quick and pleasant.
