  Been going here since the 90s. Since the name change the only things that are different are smaller portion sizes and coffee/drinks come out late. Noticed on a couple of tables people were half way through their meal by the time the coffee came out. On a Sunday morning Coffee first is most people’s priority. I hope the portions do not continue to get smaller. Food quality is the best still. Food came out quicker than normal.

  The pancakes here are amazing, perfect spot for a breakfast or brunch date. Love the ambience of the place, especially that huge chessboard. Very warm and friendly staff too, and great customer service.

  The recent changes to this restaurant are all for the better! I went for breakfast for the first time since it has been renamed and it was the best meal I’ve ever had here. The food was delivered super quickly, the prices are lower than before and there are some great new additions to the menu including the amazing blueberry pancakes. Oh my goodness these pancakes were delicious! So fluffy! My coffee was hot and strong, staff were friendly and the decor is largely unchanged which I was relieved about; we love being able to sit in a booth every time. I think I’ll be eating here a lot more often now!

  I've eaten here for a number of years. The new name and new slimline menu are really the only changes. Same great service, same great taste. My friend had their preferred potato and cheese pancake and can confirm still tastes the same. I had the zucchini fritatta and it was mighty tasty. We shared a banana pancake for dessert and it was also well done.the pancakes were all light and fluffy and the flavours seemed burst out of every mouthful. The service was appropriately friendly and casual as befits the vibe of the location. The new menu has a few new dishes to try, whilst still maintaining some old faves. It's great to see a local institution reinventing itself and coming out better for it.

  Worn (cozy), but clean; quick and friendly service. Food's a bit expensive for the quality. Portions were good - Not too much or too little. Ordered the Eggs Benedict with hash browns ($23.90), long black coffee ($3.60), and OJ ($7.40). The eggs were a bit overcooked and presented on a sourdough pancake instead of the traditional way. It wasn't a good match and I ended up eating the eggs off the pancake. The hash browns were overcooked, beyond extra crispy with a taste of burn in them. There was nothing else on the plate, so it seemed a bit rushed. Also was served my breakfast before my drinks, and had to ask for the drinks again to get them. My long coffee was served in a glass tumbler like what the small drinks come in. Disappointing overall.
