Wow, these folks are doing it right!
I ordered a to-go breakfast right at their website, and thing I LOVE about it was they, unlike so many other places, have so many specifics on HOW you want your food.
There were selection buttons for everything! How many places know that some people (me!) want their eggs 'medium well', and I can tell you those eggs were cooked a perfect medium well. The bacon was thick cut, and delicious.
I ordered biscuits and gravy and was shocked at how good that gravy was! Unlike I've had anywhere.
The only embarrassment was the girl at the ToGo desk kept insisting that I had not prepaid my order, which even though it eventually got resolved, all the people standing there are staring at me.
You wouldn't even be able to place the order on their website if you hadn't paid, so I'm not sure why she challenged me on this.
Eventually, a manager came, showed the girl where she had to look to see it was prepaid. No apology of course, but we all know good help is hard to come by these days, so these are things you overlook in this Covid climate.
The food was truly awesome, and I highly recommend this restaurant!

The service was excellent! I appreciate that they have outdoor seating and that the tables are pretty well-spaced for social distancing. The food was prepared quickly and was delicious and they were able to accommodate my son's peanut allergy. The biscuits are amazing!

It was very busy when I was there, but it took a long time to get our food, which wasn't fun with small children. It was really fun to eat the Cooker biscuits, which I had not had since I was a kid eating at Cooker. They have some sweetness and tasted pretty good. The sausage gravy with the biscuit was nice. The cinnamon roll was really good. I would definitely get those again. The meatloaf was okay. For me, it was a bit salty. They had 1 beer option, and it was a nice, easy-drinking craft beer called Old Ohio Blonde Ale from Twin Oast Brewing. I think the food is priced a little higher than average, but I know they try to use local ingredients for some of the dishes. If I was looking for a brunch/lunch option in Lake Erie Vacationland again, I would go back.

I’m unsure of where to start with the accolades this “house” deserves. For years my family and I have tried to find a go-to breakfast/brunch spot in this area. We have tried the local diners, we have tried the few chain restaurants in the area, we have even tried to just make our own (always fails with each child wanting something different). I am happy to say that we have found our spot! We have been going every Saturday for a number of weeks now and could not be happier! Servers are great! Food is fast and plentiful! And the menu suits everyone’s needs each and every time! Sarah has been our server multiple times and not that anyone else has been bad, but she is top notch!
The only problem we have run into is trying to order something different every time. Each meal has been so good that we have found it hard to change the next visit!
Kudos to the owner and staff for local sourcing! Keeping our farmers, laborers, and businesses supported is a win-win for all!

We ate at this local owned business two times in the past 10 days. The décor is bright, welcoming and fun. The staff was very welcoming and the food was excellent. My husband enjoyed a bloody Mary with his brunch and it was a feast in and of itself! The bartender was also exceptionally friendly! We tried different food from whole grain banana pancakes to several of their specials and can confidently say this will be our go to breakfast/brunch restaurant. We had two different servers, once Carmen S and once Shannon B and they were excellent. Just as attentive as you would want and need. Great personalities and ready smiles. Prices are reasonable and quality and quantity are great! Again, our new go-to brunch location. We have yet to try their lunch specials but will!

The Food was absolutely delicious! Kana was our server and she was super sweet. She was very knowledgeable of everything on the menu and gave us great suggestions since we had never been there. The potato pancakes were absolutely delicious! I definitely suggest to anybody that has an eaten there to go try it. They have a huge menu with lots of choices along with a full alcohol Menu

I was on my way to a chain restaurant when I happened upon this wonderful restaurant.
The menu has a large variety of choice for breakfast and dinner snd even includes adult beverages!
I had. The Palumbo, English muffin topped with Turkey, bacon, eggs and hollandaise souse with potatoes. Very good!

Could have been a very good breakfast, but everything was overcooked. My scrambled eggs and sausages were a little dry, but still, they were tasty. Had THE BEST cinnamon roll ever. My husband's pancakes and bacon were also overcooked. The place is huge and packed on a Wed morning so locals must like their breakfast overdone. Service was fast and friendly. Would recommend only the cinnamon roll. There were some yummy looking muffins in the case by the entrance.

Haven’t been to this place since it were Perkins so we thought we’d try it out. New decor is really nice. Food is just ok and portions are small for the money. We’d probably go back except the kicker for me was that they charge you a 3 percent fee if you use a credit card. That’s a crock of crap.

Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are happy you enjoyed our atmosphere. The 3 percent credit card fee goes directly to our credit card company, not to us. You can avoid this fee in the future by paying cash. We hope you this helps!

This was an absolute surprise to my taste buds and my wallet! Food and service was amazing! Great drink menu that correlates to the food. Large portions. Definitely get what you pay for here! Highly recommended for breakfast or brunch. The chicken and waffles was delicious and the butter pecan moonshine & coffee is out of this world!

Stopped in with the family on the way out of Sandusky. We used to go to the location when it was a Perkins. They are locally owned since 1969, so I believe the must have moved locations during covid. The restaurant was packed, and service was extremely efficient. Menu was the most interesting I’ve seen for a breakfast restaurant. Love their support of local businesses. All of our food was delicious, especially the broccoli cheese potato pancake and strawberry custard crepes.

Thank you for the kind review! A little history on us; we are still under the same owner as we were when we were Perkins, but went under a rebranding during the COVID pandemic, which has allowed us to support local business.

We went the morning after our adventure at Cedar Point. They were so accommodating to all of our needs -- allergies, number of people, etc. Alberta was our waitress and she did such a great job making sure we were well taken care of. Food was AWESOME and well priced.
