This place has a hometown mom and pop feel. The best things about this place is that they open earlier than other restaurants in town and better yet, they are open every day of the week unlike some of the other local places. We came here because the Blue Water Cafe (which is also very good) was closed on a Wednesday. The omelette was very good and all the breakfasts options offer you one pancake. Customer service was a little slow but we were not in any hurry and the wait was worth it. All of the breakfast menu options are affordable. We found many of the locals prefer this place for their meals.

Nice to find a breakfast restaurant that opens early enough for breakfast. My English muffin sandwich was really good, only complaint is I wish it was a sausage patty instead of links. Potatoes are good, not as crispy as I like but still good. Their tables are REALLY narrow. Being a bigger person they are very uncomfortable to sit in.

Wonderful place! Cute little diner, with amazingly friendly staff, and breakfast was fantastic! Our host was pleasant and kind and our waitress was hilarious and energetic!
Making this a frequent stop when we come to visit 👍

We shared an omlette with pancake and the grilled ham and cheese sandwich with fries. All was very good! Disappointed within the 35 min wait to get seated at 10am but it's the fault of an overreaching bureaucracy forcing them to close most of the inside seating.

Great food and atmosphere for this small town cafe in Grand Marias! Breakfast is fresh and hot with delicious coffee. I had the western omelet with homemade potato (hash browns) and pancake. It’s very filling and will tie you over until Dinner time.

Very delicious breakfast options and affordable. Our host offered great hospitality. Would definitely recommend!! Open earlier than competitors and that’s what brought us here. Definitely a plus that they open so early in the am. 11/10

Hard for small town restaurants during the pandemic. With the huge regulations, it makes it almost impossible to make enough and the town doesn't have enough employees regularly...everyone is overworked and tired out. They are doing a great job. Food good, just a tad slower, but amazing service...with knowledge of the general stress and fatigue...it will help your experience...
