MUST STOP!! This is the most welcoming, kind, and wonderful breakfast stop. You come in as strangers and leave feeling like family. The food is fresh and delicious. The food comes second to the service and atmosphere. Christina is one of the kindest and most genuine souls I have ever met. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!
