hip but informal and home-cooked breakfast – This family-run breakfast (and lunch) joint is informal and bustling but courteous staff and pleasant atmosphere. Standard breakfast fare, tasty and with a homemade touch. Coffee (self-serve refills) is good and I love the blueberry pancakes!

The mood is laid-back, just right. ... read more
