What it is known for
Very large breakfast portions are what reviewers mention first, and many call it the top breakfast spot in town.
The room is small and casual, closer to a roadside diner than a sit-down restaurant, and the cafe itself posts a notice about waits at busy times.
Strengths and limits
Pros
- Very large breakfast portions
- A long-standing local favorite for breakfast
- Close to Snow Summit
Cons
- Long lines at peak hours
