Let me go with saying the pros with this place because it truly deserves that. The building looks great, the inside welcoming, the patio is beautiful, the staff is very friendly, the portions are absolutely humongous!! I ordered the stack biscuit. Which is a dropped biscuit severed on top of hashbrowns, that had you're choice of meat on top of that, I chosen country fried steak, scrambled eggs on top of that, with another dropped biscuit on top, then covered in gravy. A lot of food to go thru for one person lol...which brings me to the con, the food in it's entirety was absolutely bland. So if you like bland food, which I know too many people do, you would love this place. As for me...I need seasoning!! I need flavor!! I would definitely go back to try the pancakes cuz you can't really mess that up and the portions I seen them give to people is enough to make my chubby self a happy person!! Haha also...idk what coffee they use but it was delicious!!! Adding a picture!! 2 people the total was just under $50 and we both got sides. Sausage patties, which were also huge but dry. They did have a good flavor. And grits was the other side. They were a bit overcooked.

This place has delicious breakfasts ? and lunches. We took my Mother-In-Law here for her first time for Mother's Day and she loved it! We did have to wait 30 minutes for a table of 7 but hey, it was worth the wait!

Let me say 1 of my Top 3 breakfast places on my list to go to. Portion are big, one person can easily share one plate and still leaves full! Our waitress was super nice, friendly, and attentive. Great customer service from the time we walked in until we left! I believe Gigi might have helped us out, she was great!P.s. upgrade your pancakes to the banana Carmel, won't be disappointed ?

This place has horrible food, my wrap was literally covered in oil and had no flavor to it and it was under the “healthy” section. My daughter had BURNT waffle and she’s a kid she eats everything so I tried it because I was wondering why she didn’t eat it and it tasted like straight up cinnamon and sugar like if you are taking spoonfuls of both. Overall just not a good place, I recommend to check out places in the area rather than this one!

Customer Service: 9/10Taste: Really GoodValue: ExcellentPortions: HugePancakes: Yummy - not dry. Nice and fluffy. We ordered ours with chocolate chip and with strawberries.Stopped by here on a Friday morning. The food was delicious portion sizes are huge. I usually can't not finish my plate but this place definitely challenged me.Are waitress did not have a name tag but she was really nice.I got the Salsa Omelette. It was delicious. I think next time I order it I'm going to ask for extra chicken chorizo because the chicken chorizo had a really good flavor to it and I feel like it could have been just a little better.My beautifully lovely amazing cute smart and intelligent wife ordered ( facial expression is hilarious when I voice typed this ) the corned beef skillet. She enjoyed hers as well.

One of the best breakfast places in Plainfield. The Cinnamon bun pancakes, Granny Smith apple pancakes, biscuits and gravy omelet and bbq topped tater tots (seasonal item) were delicious. The house made specialty coffees are always good. Service is always good. Will absolutely be returning.

It was busy when we went there. Worth the wait. Gluten free pancakes tasted great and were HUGE. The picture doesn't do it justice. We asked for the fruit on the side.

We tried this place for breakfast today and it was barely mediocre. We got a Chicken Fried Chicken Biscuit meal and Eggs Benedict and both were subpar. The chicken was over cooked and rubbery, the eggs for the Benedict weren’t poached properly, and the massive amount hash browns they gave were so undercooked we were basically eating raw potatoes. The portion sizes are large, though, and gravy was decent, but it didn’t make up for the underwhelming and bland nature of everything else. So, if you are looking for a large bland meal that’s overpriced, this is the place for you. If you want a good meal that’s flavorful and cooked the way you expect, you’d be better off anywhere else. Do yourself a favor and try The Southern Cafe in Crest Hill. They offer a similar menu and the quality is vastly better for the cost, which is more reasonable.

The food here is outstanding. I like that you can order breakfast and lunch options at the same time. I got the fresh mozzarella wrap and added chicken to it. My husband got the stacked biscuit. Delicious. The service here is great and everyone is really nice.

I love the ambiance of this breakfast house. I've been visiting it since they built it. My waitress was pleasant and fast. However, my Banana/Carmel pancakes didn't quite make the grade. They were dry and syrup didn't help. I was a little disappointed this visit.They also stopped the reward program, so no more freebies and no one had the fresh donuts that they once served while you waited for your meal. Covid has really impacted prices here. $20. + tax for breakfast per person is somewhat expensive If you're not pleased.
