The donuts and the oat scones, which were shared by our party of 4, were a fabulous start to our brunch. Our server was very patient, as friends who had not seen each other in several years took time to catch up. The entrees - 2 burgers, a Croque Madame, and an omelet - were all delicious. It was a very relaxed atmosphere, and we enjoyed this dining experience immensely.

Neighborhood gem. Loved ambiance. Corner seating for two not in view of fireplace. Waitstaff not spot-on. After food presented, no spoon for soup appetizer. No check-in at our table by waiter. Had to flag to be attended. Irrespective of poor service, as we were non drinkers and low tab, left generous 25% tip. I will attempt a booking again in spring and choose outside seating.
