"If I hadn’t inhaled my food the second it was placed in front of me I would have taken more pictures! We just moved back to IC and our friend suggested we go here for brunch. We went on a Sunday at 11am and ended up waiting an hour, which was the be expected for the time we went. The wait was absolutely worth it though. Shared a gigantic orange cinnamon roll with our table that was fantastic and I ordered the biscuits and gravy with both sausage and tomato gravy and it was hands down the best biscuits and gravy I have had. Their coffee drinks are amazing too. Staff is super friendly and chill as well. I can’t wait to go back to try more things off their menu!"

Was absolutely fantastic. Real butter and real maple syrup on the pancakes. House made sourdough, and delicious sausage. Will be stopping every time we come through Iowa city. So delicious.

I'm so glad I picked this spot the one day I was in town visiting my alma mater! service was excellent despite a brunch rush. everything on the menu looked fab but I'll probably stick with the avocado toast next time.

I had the pleasure to eat here with my family on the way out of town and I was quite impressed. it was a Sunday morning, and they were comprehensible, but very accommodating when we were a group of eight. as it was a nice day, we could eat at one of the picnic tables outside, which probably helped. that said eating was delicious and perfectly cooked. the sausage was delicious and the hash brown were crispy and tasty. I recommend the homemade sourdough bread for the toast option and the house made strawberry jam was also delicious. Overall, so a beautiful place is worth looking in a very cool against iowa city.
