One of the best breakfast burritos I’ve had! Had hashbrown casserole instead. Solid breakfast. Everything we ordered was great, and Mallory was very sweet. Great service

The service was amazing and our waitress was super sweet! I got the BLTA with no avocado and added an egg. I forgot to add ketchup and mayo at first so it was a little dry due to the bread being so toasted but I did still enjoy the sandwich. Once I added condiments it was much more enjoyable and I finished the entire thing! I loved the voodoo chips. My boyfriend got a breakfast burrito and he LOVED it! He also got a caesar salad which he enjoyed. I loved that when we left our waitress had a conversation with us and even gave us a refill to go! Despite them being ready to close we did not feel rushed out at all. Great service and good food.

Overall this is one of the best breakfasts in Blue ridge. The atmosphere is a fun cafe style which is perfect for breakfast, we were greeted by the most enthusiastic expeditor I've ever met. He was friendly helpful, jovial and clearly an expert on the menu and restaurant as a whole. I asked if he was the owner and he said no, so whoever does own this place should give him a raise. The coffee was phenomenal, I'm very picky when it comes to coffee usually opting for tea but their espresso wasn't burnt which is always a good sign. Their menu is a fun combination of classic breakfast with a very unique twist. I had their grits bowl with their BBQ butter - definitely try it! It's delicious! My partner had their Sausage grilled cheese. Overall the service was quick and everyone was extremely professional and friendly. Would highly recommend and we will absolutely be back anytime we are in Blue Ridge.

GREAT service! All of the employees were wonderful but our server Ken was the BEST! So friendly and knowledgeable. Gave us great recommendations for food and drink at the cafe, but then also gave us some recommendations for what was going on in Blue Ridge that we might enjoy. We had breakfast foods and they were delicious! My favorite was the latte! It had brown sugar and brown butter and tasted like a Werther original, but in the best way!

My husband and I stopped by for breakfast as newlyweds and had such an amazing experience! Our server was so sweet, she went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of. The menu offers unique food options with great flavor combinations too. Next time we are in town, we will definitely be back!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We (family of 5) came in for brunch about 30 minutes before closing, and despite the late hour, the staff was incredibly welcoming. The food was amazing—flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. While the grits could have used a little more time to cook, everything else more than made up for it. Mallory was a wonderful waitress—friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The overall hospitality from everyone we encountered was top-notch. We’ll definitely be back!

Very friendly service. Delicious Latte! We came for breakfast, I got the breakfast burrito with brisket and was not disappointed. The kids weren't with us but there were options they would have enjoyed. Next time we're in town, definitely coming back.

Although they seemed to have forgotten me way in the back coffee table, the food made up for it! The eggs were quite tasty and the tea was delicious as well. The space is lovely and cozy with nice music playing in the back. I'd come back here for breakfast if I'm ever in the area again. Delicious breakfast! Nice staff!
