“ One of the best breakfast places I have been to. Good location. Clean and neat tables. Fast and courteous service. The food tasted really good. I would suggest The Kitchen Sink Omelet and the cinnamon toast. ”
“ Great atmosphere and service. Friendly and welcoming vibe with fun quirky sayings written on chalk boards throughout the restaurant. Ordered a 6 caramel roll bigger than my head. It was soft with delicious gooey caramel. The portions are shareable. We shared the kitchen sink omelet served with toast and homemade jam. Great coffee too. ”
“ Awesome diner food with great vegan options! We've eaten here several times- and they knock it out of the park every time! We love and appreciate a vegan section on the menu- perfect for brunch and you will not be disappointed. Taco salad is excellent- absolutely HUGE portion Huge portions. Good, strong coffee. A favorite stop when we're downtown MPLS. Service is efficient and friendly. It's always packed here, yet we never have to wait or a table and everyone from the hostess to the server is friendly and pleasant. ”
“ Stumbled across this breakfast joint while on a work trip. It was a great place to eat. They have fresh squeezed orange juice, which I highly recommend. I got the biscuits and sausage gravy. It came with eggs of your choice. I ordered sausage patties on the side since it doesn’t come with them. And a side of hash browns. The hash browns were probably the best ones I’ve had! Perfectly buttery and crispy. The sausage gravy was good and didn’t have the floury taste that may find, so you know they did it right. The biscuits were fluffy and soft. Good portioned. I also tried their cinnamon roll, and there’s a reason they’re at the top of the page, very good! They’re pretty big, so easily shareable or have enough to take home. The parking is street only from what I saw. The staff was kind and attentive. ”
“ It’s not normal for a grown #** man to cry over a sandwich but today I did!. My wholly guacamole was incredible! John my waiter who was excellent recommended it. The chicken was juicy and tender. A generous amount of guacamole and melted pepper jack cheese set off the bacon. A lot going on BUT it played incredibly. If you’re are in the twin cities... get this sandwich!!!! BTW- service was quick and helpful. The kombucha was good. Mac and cheese solid. My buddy had the G.O. A.T. Chicken sandwich and thought it was very good ”
“ The place is excellent! I loved the cinnamon rolls here. They are amazing. I had an omelet and hash with a waffle. All was great. My wife had the egg Benedict and it was also delicious. The service was excellent, the waitress was very nice, and attentive. I will definitely come back for more. ”
“ Great breakfast spot in Minneapolis. There was a bit of a line when I went on a Saturday around 11:30 (to be expected) but I was by myself so I was able to sit at the bar. The cinnamon rolls are amazing. I had the blueberry cream cheese roll and it was mind blowing. ”
“ Just exploring the town and found this delicious breakfast place. Ordered a caramel roll... When I say this roll is like a cinnamon roll but fluffier, soft, and delicious.. I wanted to order another one but they are nicely sized, and didn’t want to draw attention. I also ordered the tuna melt, which was not recommended by our server... and I understand why. It was good, but it wasn’t the best. Definitely listen to your server when they recommend certain cuisine. Ended up ordering a mimosa pitcher. It was delicious, but also dangerous. Overall, my experience was a 100/10. The atmosphere was giving family vibes, and everyone was nice. Cheers! ”
