If there’s a wait for a table, order the food to go and sit at one of the outside tables (during summer). Portions are very generous.

The breakfast here is absolutely remarkable.:-) So loved the "Healthy Breakfast " option.. and my wife loved the mashed potatoe pancakes so much. Love, love, love this place.

Jana Blair

There's a reason this place is in 'Heavenly Village '! Absolutely wonderful...food, service & atmosphere. Do yourself a favor & stop by if youre in the area.

If you want to eat outside (because you have a dog) you have to go in and order takeout . You won't get table service outside.

Amy Chen

Pretty standard breakfast . I got Michelle's Omelette and was full for the entire day until dinner .

Fawn Fox

Great friendly atmosphere . Very good if you are seeking both lunch and breakfast for your guests. Very good for vegetarians or vegans .

Tamara Evans

You must try the vegan breakfast burrito !

Nikolaj Lasbo

Get the Carolina Connection if you plan on hitting the slopes all day. Enough fuel for your endeavors. Only thing to watch out for are the slick floors if you have ski boots on.

Michael

Be prepared to wait 45 mins to get seated. Bloody Mary is excellent. Foods are not bad.
