This place is just okay at best. There was nothing special about the food and the young girl with an accent did not provide anything approaching good service. The food was good but not plentiful. Not sure we would eat here again.

My boyfriend and I stopped by here a few weeks ago. I had the eggs Benedict and he had a simple breakfast with eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, and a pancake with fruit on top. We were sitting at the counter and saw I breakfast come out and sit at the end of the counter for a few minutes (until we said something...breakfast gets cold quick!)....when it we got it, my benefit was overdone (eggs cooked through rather than runny) and cold. We also waited for his pancake another 15 minutes. We saw it cooked and then put on a chair in another room in order for the staff back there to top it with fruit....when it finally got to us, it was cold and the fruit on top was over ripe...bananas were mushy, apples couldn't be eaten...I don't know how they though it was ok to serve......This place seems like they could maybe pull off simple breakfast items well (as long as it doesn't sit too long and get cold)...but don't get anything fancy. Overall, I wasn't impressed by anyone's breakfast I saw and know several places in the area that I could spend about the same and get a much better breakfast.

What a wonderful weekend experience. I love that place. The staff is extremely friendly and fun. They will bend over backwards to make you feel at home and accomodate any eating restrictions you might have. The food is great! You will find popular breakfast items next to unique dishes like black pudding -- try it, it's wonderfull or so I think. But then again, being from Germany, I like Blutwurst!! -- Try to find a spot at the bar. Overall: this was one of the better brunch-experience I had in a long time. Thank you.

After looking for quite some time for a good place to eat, I found the best place to get a big healthy portion of food that won't hurt your stomach or your wallet. The dishes at Martin's Coffee shop are served beautifully and quick. I have tried a lot of their breakfast dishes as well as subs and lunch specials and all of them are cooked to perfection. I have always left happy and satisfied with the quality of their service. The people are nice and very friendly. This could be the place where I could stop everyday for a good healthy homemade meal. I would recommend it to everyone!!!!

Award Nomination: Best Bargin Breakfast
