    Everything is seriously fantastic and you can't beat the bloody Marys. But that's no secret; come early or expect to wait.

    All the food is made from scratch - this place is great. And I am not just saying that because I am mayor (yet very proud to be mayor)!!

    Don't get the North West scramble. The combo of goat cheese and seared salmon just doesnt work well together. If you want a scramble get the Boulder or the Farm instead. Expect slow service on weekend

    Make sure to get a mixed Donut Hole order. Cinnamon Sugar and Jelly Filled are great for first timers.

    Chill spot but the donuts arent filled just topped off. Kinda disappointing. Lavender pancakes were a bit overpowering. Staff is nice though
