Very cute cafe! Owner was super nice and personable. Waitresses have great personalities! Food was great and tasty. Try the Skiiers Delight. Enjoyed our breakfast so much that we returned for lunch after our bike ride on the nearby Electric Trail!

What a lovely cafe with wonderful service and great food. I had the sweet potato praline pancakes, a family recipe I hears and they were amazing. I also ordered coffee and a side of sausage, one sausage patty. I enjoyed shopping in the gift store also afterwards.I've been there one before and had a good experience as well and enjoyed a sandwich.

Corned beef reuben sandwich served with potato chips.

Grilled chicken salad, with goat cheese, berries, walnuts, red onion, lettuce, and vinaigrette.
