Excellent food. Friendly service. We ordered the Biscuits and Gravy. It’s not your typical biscuit or gravy, but it was delicious. My only regret was ordering a Full instead of a Half because I didn’t need that much food. We also ordered the Big Ol’ Bennie. It was great. The ham was some of the best breakfast ham I’ve ever had. We also treated ourselves to a cinnamon roll, and since it was after 1:30pm, it was half priced. It was too much food but also tasted good. Lastly, we ordered a side of hash browns, which were crispy but could use some seasoning or hot sauce. Highly recommend the food overall.

Cozy little breakfast spot.
The biscuits and gravy were full of flavor 7.5/10 – highly recommend. Got a mandatory pancake, but was not too impressed, so you could pass.
The atmosphere, presentation, and good biscuits and gravy is worthy of 4 stars.

What a great place for breakfast or lunch. You have a huge selection of sweet and savory breakfast and lunch options. There’s a free refill for coffee. The service was really nice. Everything was clean. It’s certainly not cheap but from time to time you can do this.

Excellent brunch and breakfast fare. The biscuits and gravy were elegant and delicious. It is worth coming here just for this dish. The scrambled egg and hash browns were nothing to lay much praise on (particularly since the scramble was overcooked), but the biscuits and gravy more than compensate for the less than stellar egg preparation. Try their simple but interesting take on the french toast: rich butter on a french baguette with maple syrup on the side. The only edits that could have elevated this would be fresh raspberry compote with lemon zest 🙂 The cappuccino was also good. Overall this is a very nice brunch place worthy of its fame.

I love coming here for breakfast when I’m in St. Paul. I can’t eat eggs, but they always let me substitute chorizo for the avocado toast, or take eggs off the breakfast tacos (both are delicious). The coffee is really good, and I’m picky when it comes to a cup of black coffee. The staff are always friendly, and check in to make sure we have everything we need and are enjoying our meal. It’s not a large place, so grab a table before the rush. Lots of sweet options for those who enjoy breads & cakes, and plenty of savory options too. You won’t be disappointed, and if you are, ummmm weird.

This is my go-to breakfast spot in St. Paul. The coffee is spot-on, all bakery items I’ve tried are so delicious, and every dish I’ve had is full of flavor. If you get a chance, try their sunflower bread toast with a side of jam. I think about that toast all the time.

Wonderful place! Was recommended from a reddit post about good breakfast places in Minneapolis/St Paul.
Not expensive (paid about $35 for bananas foster french toast, two eggs, a drink, and one of the cinnamon rolls).
The food was INCREDIBLE; the bananas foster french toast comes as a big beautiful pile of sliced baguette style bread that’s been frenched and toasted, with grilled banana, candied pecans, and whipped cream on top. The pecans seem to be candied on location, not pre-made, which makes a huge difference. Very good bread choice, and it comes perfectly crisped with some chewy center from the bread structure. Eggs are pretty fresh and you can taste that they are, which is always a plus.
Big portions, so me and my friends are taking home leftovers as well, so it’s really like 1 1/2 to 2 meals for the about $25 that I paid for a breakfast entree, drink, and extra side of eggs.
Service was LOVELY, everyone we interacted with was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Contact points were when we ordered at the counter, then when food was brought to us (quickly, too!!), then when they checked in on us and cleared some plates, at which point we also asked for leftover containers.
Am really looking forward to coming back the next time I’m in the area!!!

I keep hearing about this restaurant and so I decided to go there. The prices are not cheap. The bread and the pastries look amazing, they came right out of the oven. I ordered a meal (that sounded good in theory) but made no sense when it arrived. I couldn’t differentiate what I was eating and it just kind of felt like a pile of slop… I was with someone that quite enjoyed the bacon and the potatoes they ordered, so that’s why I’m giving higher stars, but I prefer to be able to identify what I’m eating and after two bites this 2 pic is what my food looked like. Just kind of a wet messy plate/ wouldn’t order this again. This is a wait in line, order your food and wait for it to come to your table service restaurant. They give you a number and bring it to your table.

Enjoyed a beautiful fall afternoon brunch at an outside table. The outside street noise was tolerable! I had the Breakfast burger and salad and my guess enjoyed the same but with home fries. We also loved the ice coffee and ice tea selection.

I came in HOT this morning needing TWELVE breakfast sandwiches for our wrestlers and they handled it like absolute champs.
Not only were they calm and accommodating with a big order, but when I realized mid-wait that I needed a few lighter options and added to it (because apparently I can’t plan ahead ), they were SO kind and flexible. No stress. No attitude. Just pure hospitality.
While I was waiting, I made the life-changing decision to order one of their from-scratch, made-in-house cinnamon rolls…
And listen.
I was not prepared.
I was literally sitting there in a daze while eating it. Perfectly ooey-gooey. Fluffy but substantial. The caramel and frosting were balanced in a way that should probably win awards. I think I temporarily left my body. Shannon even came up and asked if I needed anything and I could barely respond because I was in cinnamon roll heaven.
Shannon, who was running the show this morning, is the kind of person that makes a place unforgettable. She’s like the cool aunt. I always wanted, but never had. Calling everyone “sweetie” and “hon,” checking in on customers, radiating warmth. It felt like walking into a small-town café tucked into downtown St. Paul. Cozy, chill, authentic, independent coffee shop vibes, the kind of place you hope exists but rarely find.
The entire staff was working so hard, smiling, clearly proud of what they’re doing. You could feel that the culture there is good. And that matters.
The food? Incredible.
The service? Even better.
The cinnamon roll? I will dream about it.
If you’re anywhere near downtown St. Paul – go. Order extra. And don’t skip the cinnamon roll.
We will absolutely be back.
