Quality food, home fries where amazing. Not a fan of the chairs with arms made small space difficult to maneuver. Prices where on the high end even for these crazy times, but with more strategic ordering could have improved, pancakes were large and filling, kids could have shared to reduce cost and the juices add up, but where refreshing. Local charm will return, cozy but good use of space and light.

Very cute place though parking was confusing. We got our usual breakfasts and sides. Everything arrives fast and hot!! Coffee was good but didn't like the non-dairy creamer. That isn't an issue for me as I bring my own heavy cream and maple syrup every place we go to. Had enough for the two of us. Pancakes were very large and fluffy, delicious! I highly recommend the loaded hash potatoes. I could have made a meal out of those alone. And the English muffins were huge and well griddled. Waitresses were all nice and friendly. We got to sit in a snug corner which was nice aside from being next to the dirty dish station over the wall. Didn't bother us but others may not like the added noise. Would definitely visit again!

The food here is amazing and it’s clear a lot of care is taken into it. Great options, actually crispy bacon. The only downside to this place is there is not a lot of seating so there’s a chance you may have to wait a bit but it’s not worth taking off any stars because the food was so good.

Had a very nice breakfast here. It's odd but there aren't a lot of breakfast places when coming south from Manchester airport, but this hit the spot. Love the way they cook their hash.

I had an excellent breakfast here, the home fries were some of the best that I've had in a long time.

Very nice place. I typically get the Irish Benedict, which is amazing, but I snagged a picture of the Breakfast Burrito. It's also good. The pancakes and French toast are good, I've had them before. The staff are prompt and the food comes fairly quickly. Overall a great experience including the taste of the food, the service provided, cleanliness, and the feel of the atmosphere. They had smooth jazz playing softly in the background that gave it a pleasant touch. The Pracktiss Podcast #pracktiss #coachclint #alivingsystem #becomeyourowncure #thepracktisspodcast
