    My nephew and I came in here today and it is the cutest little cafe I've ever seen. The owner is so sweet and it literally felt like home. The food was great, the service was amazing. I have no complaints! And they even give out pocket Jesus'! Which made it even better. Id give 100 stars if I could!

    Nice little diner. My aunt, who I haven't seen in nearly 50 years, picked it as a good spot to meet while I'm visiting in Michigan. It was a great spot for lunch! The women were very friendly, the prices are below current market price, and it has a nice friendly atmosphere. I enjoyed it!

    Fantastic staff that build relationships with every costumer. Delicious food that hits the right spot not only in your stomach but your wallet too . It also has the comfort and feel of a classic ma and pa restaurant that makes you feel at home. If you are in town I highly recommend this restaurant! It is my favorite go to spot in all of Saint John’s
