★ 4Always a fun to place to go with board game decorations. Too bad the coffee is more water than coffee. The corned beef hash was more hash a bit of corned beef. :-( My husband’s mushroom and cheese omelette was excellent. Super friendly and helpful staff!

★ 5The Food:nnWe ordered the chocolate chip banana speciality hotcakes, croissant french toast and the potatoes with eggs.
I personally ate the chocolate chip banana speciality hotcakes and the potatoes, and both were exceptionally good - like, come here just to order these things every other day kind of good. The pancakes I believe are flapjacks with perfectly crisp edges and a delicious buttery taste. Every bite felt well portioned, there was never too much or too little of the filling (never too much chocolate or banana). The potatoes were so good they made me rethink the power of such a simple ingredient. They were wonderfully crisp, NOT burnt, and were very well seasoned.
The Service:nnWe were seated promptly after entering, and immediately our very nice server came to ask if we wanted something to drink. We took about 7-10 minutes to decide what we wanted. She came around once within that time frame and then again at the end of it to take our order, and was very patient with our questions about the options. She was kind in sharing what her recommendations were, and redirected us to more cost effective pairings when we asked for multiple things that could be grouped together. Our food came quickly and it was just as we asked for. I also liked her socks (Lol!) they had a cool design! She came by briefly during our meal to refill our water and ask how we were getting along. Very nice, respectful of our space, and resourceful.
The Atmosphere:nnI didn’t notice this until sitting down but all of the walls are lined with vintage board games! It was a great way to pass time. The tables are pretty close to each other so beware of the fact that you might hear the conversation of the person next to you but I didn’t find it difficult to disregard. It had a nice diner feel.
Overall, much enjoyed. Will be back. -

★ 5Great diner with kind servers and classic dishes. The pancakes are fun in that they're cooked like crepes yet still use pancake batter. Prices are super reasonable too.
I'll be back 😁 -

★ 5Husband went here during undergrad, and so we hit it up for breakfast. Had the chorizo and eggs, it wasn’t bad. Real star of the dish was the Lyonnaise potatoes, softer than your average home fries but tastier I feel. The decor was cute, and it’s bright and adorable inside. Good place for breakfast.
