Everything was great! Breakfast bruschetta was so yummy! I had Eggs Benjamin/sub bacon . Great! Hubby enjoyed roast beef hash . Staff was very attentive. Will be back next time we are in town !

The best in the area so far for crab cakes and eggs for breakfast . The place has a cute cafe feel to it inside. The stuffed French toast is a winner too!

Everything is good. I have not yet had anything I did not like from them. The staff is amazing as well .

Stuffed French toast is incredible, and the Bloody Mary is just spicy enough. Really great breakfast .

Get their french toast !!! I have never had french toast like this before...so yummy!

Worth the visit. Try the Tofu Scramble and come before noon during weekdays when it seems a tad less crowded .

Their French toast is great and I loved their eggs .

All the food is great. The chairs are uncomfortable if you are a little overweight. Sit on a bench .

Missed out on the scones but everything was worth the wait. Even the disgruntled neighbor.

Great service! We came on a busy Sunday morning and was seated in a nice corner window booth in like 5 minutes! :)

The French toast is delicious. One of my favorites in LBC!

Highly recommend the stuffed French toast . Ignore the haters and give this place a try.

Mmmmm. So good. Love the breakfast . The AC is too cold so bring a jacket .

The stuffed French toast is amazing. Better than any desert on the menu, and those are delicious in their own right.

very interesting. organic and decorated in an artsy fashion, but the food was delicious and not too skimpy.

Very nice granola , awful coffee .

One of the most unique (and tasty) French Toast I have ever encountered!

Roasted mushroom , sautéed spinach , and feta scramble is awesome. The hot chai tea is AMAZING!!

Food is great. During the week the service is a little gruff.

My favorite is the stuffed French toast with berries

Best kept Breakfast secret! Innovative and clever food. Try the French Toast , Breakfast Bruschetta and the Breakfast Polenta . YUM! Read more

I get sucked in because it's cute and local but it is by far the most overrated eatery in the area. They run out of essential items early in the morn and most of their hot meals are bland & pricey .

Get the stuffed San Francisco French toast with the carmelized apples

Place is tiny so it gets crowded easily, but the food is delicious!

They are now open for dinner on Fridays & Saturdays. Chicken pot pie is very good

Everything is amazing. The breakfast polenta , the crab cakes and the stuffed French toast are all verifiably scrumptious.

The Hawthorne pizette was delicious. The hickory bacon had good flavor. The split pea soup wasn't bad either.

If you get here before 10 am, T-TH they have a 4.95$ breakfast special . I'll catch it next week!
