This used to be the best breakfast place in town. Sadly, the quality has diminished considerably. Our most recent carry out... order is a sad example. The food is never ready on time and additions, like avocado, are frequently not included. Multiple timesI have had to remind them about drink orders that were forgotten. The food is hastily and sloppily put in the containers. It isoften cold or undercooked. The bacon we received was basically raw. It?s honestly like the employees just don?t care. And someof the younger ones are frankly pretty rude. Eating there is a marginally better experience, but expect to wait over an hourfor your food. All this for probably the most expensive breakfast in town. I had family visiting in town and suggested eatingthere and was embarrassed by the end for recommending such a subpar experience, especially when the bill was as pricy as it was.We will not be returning anytime soon.

Childers catered my daughters wedding on 10/1/22. The food was excellent. The servers were awesome! We were ahead of schedule... and the were great about serving early. They kept us informed all night of everything. I would highly recommend them! Read more

Popular restaurant in Peoria. This location in Junction City has a large seating area and a covered porch on two sides for a... great outdoor patio. Friendly service. Fresh kale juice and very tasty quinoa chicken bowl with avocado and kale pesto. Smallserving sizes, so order accordingly. Read more

A family favorite for brunch and the staff are always so friendly and delightful. I enjoy the options the menu have to offer.... The chai is a go to and the mascapone toast is now a new favorite I keep trying to recreate at home. My husband loves thebaker's breakfast with the traditional offerings. I try to pick new a different option on the menu because they all lookdelicious. We have never had a bad experience here. Read more

The customer service was excellent! I expected a wait at 10AM on a Saturday but surprisingly there wasn't one! I loved the... spinach artichoke Benedict and would've given 5 stars if my meal came without egg shells in it. I lost my appetite afterfinding that crunch and pulling it out of my mouth. Hopefully they're more careful with how they prepare it in the future. But overall a good experience with decent food. Read more

Really great spot for at least breakfast items. Haven't had non breakfast items so not sure but their breakfast is really good.... The place was nice enough. Nothing special but I did like the plants & ivy covering the walls. So that was 1 part that was abovethe regular. I had the chicken & waffles & while the waffle was one of the better ones I had (soft, fluffy yet big & filling)the chicken tenders were just ok. They add bacon to theirs & it was good bacon. Nothing too special but better than average. Butthe waffles. I tried some of their specialty churro waffle & that was fantastic. Also tried their French toast & that was reallygood. Fresh fruit, cream, and a wonderful lemon syrup. I also had their biscuits & Gravy & those were great. Above average &maybe some of my recent favorites. The biscuits were flavorful & soft & the Gravy was delicious. The other people in my partywere also happy with their meals. They have some interesting items & they all look good. They had a caramel apple cider mimosaon special that was really good. Read more

Should rate 3.5 stars. All meals I?ve eaten here have been good, some great. Breakfast is their strong meal, but be warned that... some items such as biscuits and specifically waffle (ordered chicken and waffle once) are dense and heavy opposed to light andflaky. Menu variety leans toward healthier, fresh food choices, gluten free and vegan choices, but also includes items like?Food Coma.? Pictured in this review is Lemon Berry French Toast, which is light and refreshing. House blend coffee is abold/dark roast, but flavored creamers are available table-side and specialty coffee drinks are also available. Wait staff isusually friendly but not overbearing. Atmosphere however is loud, so meeting for an intimate conversation can be difficult.Factoring all these things, menu prices may seem high, but quality of food makes up for it. Therefore, consistently aboveaverage, a solid 3.5 stars. Read more
