My mom and I stopped here on a road trip in her Tesla and we had great service from Christina! She was super personable and gave... good recommendations. I got the red pepper soup (on Christina?s recommendation, and it was also recommended by the lady sittingat the table next to ours) and my mom got the quiche, both were great! The ambiance in the restaurant was nice too. This is aexcellent place to get lunch. Read more
I cannot say enough good things about this place! The staff was super friendly, especially our server, Leslie. We had a wine... slushy followed by two wine flights, yes two, for the two of us. Be warned that you get more than one cup per pot! Definitelytry the ginger blueberry if you like ginger, that was my favorite! The scone I ordered was scrumptious as well, served withcream and preserves. Read more

This place is always packed, but so worth it. I have gone here a few times now and always been impressed. This time I chose to... do the $20.00 mimosa flight with my meal. You get to choose 4 different mimosa flavors to try-- The Pina Colada one was thebest! For a sandwich I tried the chipotle chicken panini. It was grilled perfectly and the ingredients tasted fresh. My favoritepart of the meal was the soup.I have the white chicken chili soup and it tasted home made and fresh, rich with flavor andcreamy. I would go back just for that! Our waitress was very friendly. The hostess, who I have seen a few times now while therenever has a smile on her face and always looks miserable. While I don't let it effect my view of the restaurant, it would be alot more pleasant having the first employee to greet you when walking in be someone who is friendly and looks happy to have you.

I had the ham and Brie panini with the lobster bisque. My better half had the ratatouille panini with the chicken and beans... soup. Both meals were delicious. Next came the scone with cream and mixed berries very nice, along with fresh pressed decafcoffee. Sorry scone went fast and I failed to photograph it. Great meal and service. Read more
The Whistling Kettle was recommended by a coworker, and for good reason. The food is delicious, and most items on the menu can... be gluten free (crepes, sandwiches, etc.) My earl gray tea was good, and I'm told the matcha was done right. My sandwich andcarrot cake were delicious. Read more
