Great breakfast. Though theyre a little understaffed at the moment (much like everywhere else), the service is fantastic as always. A consistent local favorite for a reason!

We went here for supper. The penne and sausage was delicious. It was a very large portion with lots of fresh veggies and cheese. My husband had the liver and onions and he really enjoyed it. It was quite busy and the service was great.
