    Hardworking folks, dishing up superb food. Everything is good and delicious. I went back for the breakfast burrito but honestly, so you would for the pancakes or any of the menu items! A small town gem.

    Excellent, small coffee shop also offering breakfast and lunch. Stopped in for a quick coffee and pie. The strawberry rhubarb pie was great. I would definitely stop here again.

    The salads are large and delicious. On a Saturday in March (peak tourist season), this place is packed, and there can be a long wait for service. However, we have no complaints—it's worth the wait. We will return here when we are back in Patagonia.

    We ate here for both breakfast and lunch. This is a gem of a restaurant. Atmosphere is quite casual. Coffee is self serve. The place was packed both times we ate. Try to arrive just as they are opening (7 weekdays, 8 on weekends). The breakfast bowl with sausage and salsa was truly excellent. I also strongly recommend the Spinach Pesto which had wonderful flavors (including a little spice). Prices are quite reasonable considering the quality of the food. I would definitely eat here again.
