Pleasing family diner. I ordered the chicken fiesta soup and sandwich. Lots of chicken in the soup so it felt like a solid meal. My husband ordered the "One A Day" which was 1 pancake, 2 strips of bacon and 1 egg. Delicious. The pancake was a bit under cooked and the server took that portion off the charge which was a very customer friendly thing to do, though we didn't actually request it. Service was quick, dining was pleasant. It's a quick stop off 169 in Princeton, on your way to the cabin, for a pleasant breakfast or lunch. They also have a variety of coffee and pastries.

Wow I was not disappointed after stopping here to eat! Excellent latte, service and nice people who cared that I was here after a flat tire. I loved the omelette with sun-dried tomatoes and hollandaise, a pancake on the side, so good!

Great spot for breakfast. Had a good diner food and coffee! I got the corned beef and hash and I really liked that it was crispy.
