"Well I think this has got to be the most expensive brunch I’ve ever had personally. My fiancée and I tried this place out for a couple breakfast sandwiches earlier this week. We’d heard nothing but great things about this place, so we were looking forward to trying it out. We both thought the sandwiches were okay, but nothing too special. Certainly very large portions, but kinda missing a bit of taste. Regardless, the main issue was just the quality of the food. This is undoubtedly odd, but we had both mentioned to each other that the bacon in our sandwiches was hard. Not crispy or anything like that, but genuinely hard. It was like chewing on a rock because all of the pieces were stuck together and folded over. After leaving, my fiancée was complaining the whole way home that her jaw was hurting. We checked her out once we got home and noticed that one of her teeth was chipped. We take her to the dentist and they then hit us with a bill of $1,500…So certainly not the most pleasant dining experience. Chipped tooth aside, we both felt the food was overpriced for what it was and just not that great. You are certainly pay for quantity and not quality. Coffee was great though lol. All in all, can’t say I recommend this place."

Food was good but it took WAY TOO LONG. Waited over an hour for eggs, bacon, and toast.

Really nice breakfast/brunch spot with delicious sandwiches and filling portion sizes. Small but cozy layout.

30 percent of the menu was unavailable, and the beer was warm. First a draft, then I ordered a bottle for better luck. Warm again.

THE BEST BRUNCH IN GAINESVILLE! If you love crispy bacon, correct proportions of champagne to oj mimosas, mouth watering French toast, fresh fruit and great service this is the place for you. The staff are friendly and attentive and the vibes are great. 100/10 recommend

We went on a busy game day Saturday around 11am and wait time was 40 min. They don't hold on the bacon , most places give a little sliver but these were bug slices. I would love to know where they get their bacon from. We got the Big Pig Sandwich and the burrito which were both incredible. Price isn't too bad either. Great flavors and I feel like every condiment on the food shined in its own and gave the food some depth considering they are both two simple items and it's hard to mess them up anyways. They really hit it out of the park. Would deff come back.

We came here after all the good reviews, however we were very disappointed and won’t be returning. They were out of literally half their menu. The water was warm and we were not offered ice. They brought my food first, then my boyfriend’s ten minutes later. I asked for butter for the toast, which said it would be buttered on the menu, and the butter was too hard to even use. I wanted to order the Two Egg Breakfast but they don’t serve grits or fruit during the week apparently. The food was really not that great either, pretty greasy and my eggs I asked for over easy were more so over hard. View menu

Went Sunday for midmorning breakfast based on reviews. Nice ambiance, tables well separated! Our party of 3 ordered the two egg breakfast which comes with buttered toast, bacon, hash browns and either cup of fruit or cheese grits. Sorry to say food was average, either overcooked (charred bacon) or undercooked (drippy, over medium done eggs). Poorly toasted thick french toast accompanyment a poor choice for eggs but thats just me. I'm sure based on reviews they have great dishes but extending that to all dishes in a consistent manner is what for me makes for a top notch restaurant you want to return to. Got a refund from our apologetic, friendly waitress.

We came on a Saturday morning around noon. There was plenty of space so we chose a table on the patio. It was perfect shady but still able to people watch. Service was quick, the waiter recommended the original sandwich so that's what we got, as well as a cold brew. The cold brew was very good and the original sandwich was very impressive looking. A thick piece of egg souffle, thick piece of pork jowl, and bacon. I thought it was very tasty but my hubby got some pieces that were overcooked and so hard that he thought he cracked his tooth on one of them. I guess some of the pieces are hit or miss. The sandwich is very filling though, could only finish half so took the other half home.
