I believe this place recently opened, but they seem to be having a smooth transition! We went around 11:30 or so, and there were plenty of open tables. I'm guessing most of their business occurs around breakfast as that's what the majority of the menu items are. Speaking of the menu, it is a little limited -- being only one page, but we were able to all find something we liked. Our waitress was very kind and answered all our questions. She kept us updated on when the food would be coming out, and she was happy to provide us with extra jams and such. I got the banana french toast, and it was amazing. It also really filled me up! I didn't have to add syrup or anything to it either. Very cute vibe here. I hope they keep expanding their menu!

Great local spot with fresh, from scratch food, served by friendly people. There aren't a lot of breakfast spots in the area, so a place like this with good food is going to be jammed! Be prepared to wait a bit - both to be seated and for the kitchen to fire up your order from scratch - but it's worth it. The daily focaccia and quiche, pancakes, and chai are particular favorites! Take the 1 star reviews with a grain of salt. If you look at those Yelpers' other reviews, they're all 1 star or 5 stars - meaning if they didn't think it was perfect, then it was awful - nothing in between. Come on now...

Excellent food and very kind staff! The outdoor seating area is nice and relaxing. I love that the kids cups are reusable.

Cozy little place for lunch. Mom and daughter working the front of house as a team. Great service. Great sandwiches.

Came here for breakfast on a sleepy winter morning. The staff were incredibly friendly and the coffee on point. We had an order of the oatmeal and the corn beef eggs Benedict. Both dishes hit the spot.

My husband and I were in Elk Rapids for a long weekend and a relative recommended we stop here for brunch. It's a small place, so during the busy season, be prepared to wait. They do have an outdoor patio which is nice when the weather is cooler. Our server was prompt and friendly and gave us honest feedback about our menu questions. She made our visit really enjoyable. I got the kid's pancake stack and hash browns. My husband got the Ames Street breakfast sandwich on a biscuit. The biscuits were clearly homemade and yummy (I stole a bite). I wish the pancakes had more berries in them, however, they were very filling. The coffee was hot and available, but they were out of several pastries by the time we got there closer to brunch, so if this is something you are really interested in, get there early. We will definitely go again.

Absolutely amazing service! So glad they are here in elk rapids because this is the kind of business we love! They have a smaller inside seating with roughly 9 tables and 5 or so at a bar. The food came out quite fast which was around 20 minutes. We will definitely be back!!!

Delicious and welcome addition to elk rapids! Absolutely lovely staff, cozy environment, not too loud and the food is jazzed up classics that improve the overall dish not making it into something my meat and potatoes dad is scared to eat (this happens). The potatoes are the bomb, definitely in the top ten best breakfast side potatoes I've had. I've sat at a table, the counter and take out and they've been excellent each time with superior customer service. I expect they'll be slammed in the summer, so plan accordingly and don't be a jerk. I've seen this happen year after year at restaurants downtown TC, if you have a large group I'd call ahead and give them a heads up. Idk how they'll handle the summer but I'm already dreading it for them. Tailgate games, a tent with a coffee bar would go a long way to manage cranky tourists who don't know how to be respectful and expects everyone to operate on their timeline. *If you can't tell I've had Saturday brunch induced trauma after living next to Patisserie Amie and Towne Plaza and seeing people scream at servers and hosts like it's their fault the place seats like 50 people and you roll up with 8 adults and 4 kids and don't expect to wait. It's insane. Anyways rant over. This place is a delicious and woman owned! #girlBoss lol :)
