Make sure you get the french toast and the home fries! Best I've had in Durham! Very friendly staff. The place can get packed on a weekend morning so plan accordingly. They also have really good coffee.

We came here for a late breakfast after hiking the Eno River State park. The place was busy but we were able to grab a table right away. I really enjoyed the omelette I ordered. It came with home fries and toast. My daughter ordered a really creamy shrimp Alfredo. The food was delicious and came out fast. We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere and felt the price was fair. I would definitely recommend and be back for more

One of the best Cappuccino I’ve had in recent times! Live music on Friday evening made it more memorable. Nachos and bagels were worth trying for the price. I’d go again for Cappuccino ☕️

I tried this place for the first time the other day and I was very pleased. The fries were delicious (and cooked very well) and the wrap I ordered was also very good. The woman working was very nice.

We were looking for IHOP and stumbled upon this place. I'm SO glad we did!! The family atmosphere is warm and inviting. The food is delicious and the service is awesome. My Mother loved her Cafe Latte. Not pricey and large portions. We will definitely be back!

Ordered buffalo wings and the mega steak burrito for take out. The wings were okay. Honestly, I'm disappointed with the burrito. In my opinion, it's overpriced and it was... bland and boring. The rice was just plain white rice and the meat itself didn't have any special seasoning. The staff, however, was very friendly and the café was kept clean.

Stumbled upon this place in search of a good breakfast burrito. Ended up discovering so much more. Sunday at noon, all tables full, people happy, food looks amazing coming out. We ordered a bacon breakfast burrito to go and will 100% be back to explore more of the menu. Looking forward to trying some of the juices! What a find! Great prices too!

The food wasn’t bad but that’s a bit pricey. (Also got the chicken soup , pancake platter and iced coffee)

Good place. Need to try more stuff but the chicken quesadilla was excellent! Update - tried the giant steak burrito. It wasn't steak but ground beef. Misleading. Good service though.

Great food on a nice restaurant. Antique coffee grinders decorate the walls. Besides the great food, they also have a cooler with Mexican coke, jarritos and jumex.
