There was ideal background music, 60s-80s familiar tunes. Just loud enough to hear and enjoy. Bonus points, I did not notice any TV screens. We had two classic brunch dishes. The French Toast was amazing, thick, eggy, just enough cinnamon. The fresh fruit on top was a welcome surprise. My husband loved the Benedict, halfway through he mixed his hash browns in with the runny yolks and took it to a whole new level. There are some nice options offered on the breakfast/brunch menu. Coffee was decent and refills offered. We both cleaned our plates. I think our waitress was Kelly, not positive of the name. Dark hair. She was great, very real, like a small town diner waitress oughta be. Knew the menu and what to recommend. Just the right amount of conversation. We had gone to early Sunday Mass in Lebanon, driving back towards Eaton, and I had no less than four brunch possibilities lined up, all of which failed for one reason or another. It was karma because we were meant to end up at Alleyway Cafe. So glad we did and I highly recommend this spot for brunch!

So frustrating.... the menu doesn't include allergens at all. I am allergic to tomatoes and I…read moreordered meatloaf. It came, covered in ketchup. Even without the ketchup it looks gelatinous. Absolutely turned my stomach when it came. I also ordered a loaded baked potato and what came out was something I'd be embarrassed to serve. My friend ordered the scramble bowl. It had sausage in it, but sausage wasn't listed on the menu. Thankfully she wasn't allergic to pork. All that, and we waited 40 minutes for our food to come out. My husband did enjoy his pancakes.

The Friday fish was not good and wouldn't get ever again. But the Wednesday chicken and dumplings was awful. Even my husband wouldn't eat it and he was in the army and not a picky eater. For one thing it was supposed to be dumplings and it was like they tossed a hard biscuit in the overly salty mess. We would ever get either again. Sorry these specials are a big fat NO.

There is also a second room with several low tip tables that would be good for groups, along with a pool table AND a pinball machine. I really wanted to play but the machine was very close to an occupied table and I felt it would be awkward. I will scope it out next visit. The barmaid was very kind, funny and very friendly to newcomers. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich + lettuce and tomato and unfortunately it arrived on untoasted bread which made it soggy. I spoke up and she agreed the cook blew it and had it remade in a jiffy. The chicken salad has grapes and chopped nuts...like a Waldorf salad and it was amazingly delicious. Way beyond what you'd expect for "bar food." My husband had the grilled chicken dinner and said the chicken breast was just ok but he was very happy with the baked potato and the salad. I shall return.

Portions are pretty big so several things can be shared or leftover. Honestly usually too full to try dessert options. They don't often have black bean soup but its sooo good. Onion rings are yummy. My mom got the pork chops and loved it. Parking is biggest downfall as they don't there own and its a high traffic area to drive around trying to find a spot. There is a big free lot close to the river.

Well, they did--the footie/football (no, not rugby with padding) final (Real Madrid and ...) and here I was reading the updates from Twitter and didn't notice the game on the TV behind me. :-D This one has been open a month or two, I'm guessing. I remember seeing it being built back in October. Someone welcomed me and told me to sit anywhere. I usually sit at the counter, but two of them were parked there, so I sat at a booth. I ordered my typical Burrito Bowl with Tex-Mex Chili, Jalapeños, Black Olives, and Firehouse Spice Mix, and a Mountain Dew. I got everything basically, but only half of the Firehouse Spice Mix. I guess the spice shaker was too heavy. They've recently changed from a chipotle sauce to sriracha sauce--I guess because of all the non-Asians who have recently discovered the rooster sauce. In any case, there was no real problem with the food, thankfully. Twice, I was asked if I needed anything else, and I didn't. When she brought the check to the table, she didn't offer me a Mountain Dew to go. There was also no mint. Both things are typical of Gold Star Chili. I guess with two customers in the place and another in the drive-thru, they were too busy to remember.

I understand everyone has a bad day but if you don't like your job or you don't want to be there find something else you enjoy doing. The food was ok.

She was the best. Sorry we had to leave Paula. It wasn't because of you. Clearly it was disorganized and kitchen was not prepared. Young hostess need training.
