Took my partner here today for father's day breakfast for the first time and we were absolutely blown away. The food is incredible and perfect portion. We ordered the classic eggs benedict, country fried steak and eggs and shared a fruit crepe. We are always on the search for the best eggs bennie and country fried steak and this place tops the charts. The gravy is to die for and even has a little kick to it. The food takes a bit to come out, but it is definitely worth the wait. The atmosphere is homey and casual and there is an open kitchen concept to watch the food cook. The service is so friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommended and we will be back!

visiting from a large city, this diner encapsulates the charm of a small town perfectly. 3 people working, oldies playing on the speakers, the most warm and charismatic vibe & ambient, and solid food. the service is so smiley and nice. the vanilla latte was delicious. would def come back if i visit here again, felt like i was on the set of gilmore girls. spent $60 on 2 ppl. 2 meals 2 lattes and 20% tip

This cafe is quintessential California- just as you imagine before visiting . Kendra, the manager, exudes a genuine warmth and you feel right at home. If you are a stranger in town, you are not one here. Regulars pop in right after the closed sign flips to open in the morning. Kendra spoke to all customers, providing local information to newcomers. Clean tables, colorful murals, and a fresh cup of coffee greets you. Traditional folk and indie grooves complete the pleasant sit down experience. You can see the historic National Hotel across the street and available parking is ample on both sides of the street. Food was made fresh and portions were ample.

Wonderful experience having brunch here this morning 🌄! Had a Superb Eggs Benny 🥚 with a Delicious Cappuccino, that had to be followed by another 😋! Very friendly and accommodating staff. Will come back tomorrow for more of the same as I'm staying just across the street at the National Exchange Hotel. They didn't have anything Espresso-based there so "wandered" across the street to this Café. Have never been here before, but will definitely return. Thanks to my server, Kendal❣️She makes a Wonderful Cappuccino!🤎

Visited April 19th for breakfast..see receipt. This cute and cozy restaurant is located on Broad Street in Nevada City California. They open at 9am and close at 230pm (i think they are closed on Wednesdays). The place reminds me of a true diner! Its casual yet artful ambience fits in with the Nevada City vibe. My boyfriend and i wanted breakfast and i haven't been here in years so we decided to give it a try. GLAD we did...breakfast was good but not over filling...2 eggs with hash browns and 2 pancakes. Also added crispy bacon on the side. Pancakes were nice and fluffy, and crispy bacon is exactly what we wanted! Coffee was nice and strong and tasty. They also have mimosas and beer and wine. The location is great as its right off the freeway and you can walk to all the shops!
