My husband's waffle had a slight bleach taste to it, and both of our scrambled eggs were completely overcooked and bland. The chicken sausage was very bland and disappointing as well.

It was pretty dark and there weren't any windows nearby. We got the pancake tacos and classic french toast. The pancake tacos were a fun concept, but a little odd to mix cinnamon pancakes with garlic aioli. Not bad, but not sure I would get them again! The french toast was better, but pretty standard. Service was great! I think I'd give it another try if I was in a group and wanted a nice place to sit when the weather is nice.

We chose Hayward House to celebrate our son's graduation from Florida State University and made a…read more2:15 pm lunch reservation for 6 people because the ceremony was at 7 pm. We drove to Tallahassee that day, but unfortunately got caught in heavy traffic due to President Trump speaking in Sumter County near The Villages. As Soon as we realized we would not make our reservation, we called the restaurant to explain the unavoidable circumstances and asked if there was any way to move our reservation to another time that day. Initially, we were told no, so we canceled the reservation. Shortly afterwards, the restaurant called back and informed us we would be charged a cancellation fee of $ 150 - $ 25.00 per person. I completely understand having a cancellation policy, however, charging $ 25 per person for a lunch reservation during unavoidable traffic circumstances felt excessive and unreasonable, especially after we proactively called ahead. What was even more disappointing was the complete lack of flexibility or compassion during an important family milestone. I explained repeatedly that we were desperately trying not to miss our son's graduation celebration and were even worried about missing the ceremony itself because we were stuck in traffic. I asked about every possible alternative- a later dinner reservation, appetizers only, or even moving reservation to another day. Ever request was denied except for a 4 pm slot, which still was not realistic given the traffic situation. What upset me the most was not just the fee itself, but the unwillingness to work with us. A more customer focused approach could have been allowing the $ 150 to be applied toward a future visit. Because of this experience, my family will NEVER dine at Hayward House, and I would NOT recommend it to other FSU families celebrating special occasions.

Don't come here if you have a big party. We had two tables of ten. I must start this with each…read moretable had its own server. One of the tables had a nice experience. Our table was not great. After waiting forever to get drinks the waiter auctioned off the drinks (which is always a sign of bad service) he had just taken orders for. He served a margarita to a non-drinker telling him it was a mocktail he ordered. We ordered appetizers, which were good. Unfortunately they got cold while we waited for small plate. We asked for other servers in the area for them twice. They never showed up, so we had to eat them with our hands. This would be fine if the shrimp wasn't $44 dollars and not great when eaten cold. We had actually walk into the restaurant to get drink refills. We were there to celebrate and spend money, but we couldn't get service. Flagging down other servers to get another glass of wine or beer is not ideal. When it was time for entres they were not sent out at the same time and were again auctioned off. "Who had the scallops?" Funny thing is I had the scallops and they were stone cold. While waiting for the rest of the food to show up to the table they got even colder. After ten minutes I just ate. After three quarters of the table was served and finished their plates the waiter showed up and 3 people on the table had not been served. They rushed out the three missing dishes after a manager was notified. The craziest thing that happened all evening was when the check was dropping and they added a 22% gratuity. They did take off a couple items. It was hard to tell with a $1500 tab. I have worked in the service industry and am usually sympathetic to servers and restaurants as I have been on the other side of the house. But this experience was too poor to excuse. That being said the other table said they had a great experience. Maybe it was an off night for our server.

Of late we have had some success getting here during their lunch hours which has reminded me of just how good they are. The menu changes some pretty regularly so there are new ideas to try over time. There also are dishes that have stood the test of time that will always be present. The rainbow trout is one of those and you will never go wrong ordering that. Always delicious. Otherwise have at the several choices that may appeal to your taste. I doubt that you won't like it. The location is a converted mini market. I am remembering that the first restaurant conversion was a classic diner that was good for breakfast but Kool Beanz has been here for a long time and thriving. Some of the best seats in the house can actually be on a stool at the counter watching the chefs ply their trade. There's an additional large dining room at the end of the building and they have created a nice outdoor space as well. What may be hard to come by when they are busy is a parking space. Service has always been friendly and attentive. Prices are reasonable considering the creativity that is involved. You will pay more at dinner which is why we love to catch them at lunch.
