    This place has wonderful food a very large menu, and some very innovative food options. The service is also top notch...they are so friendly and welcoming. I had not been there in a while. I went recently and I'll make it a point to go again soon. This is one local gem absolutely worth supporting!!

    This place is a hidden gem! Amazing food, amazing service. Everything is made from scratch and it shows! Can't wait to go back! 10 out of 10 stars!

    The owner of this restaurant is why their is still faith in humanity... The venue is small and cozy with quiet music played. The tables are decorated and stocked fully with everything you need. The specials are hand written and are the perfect adder to the existing menu. The waitress, who is the owner, is so polite and respectful. She goes above and beyond and makes the 10-15 dollar plates worth every penny. I have been here a handful of times and have never had one complaint. * note, upon knowing my friend had his b day the day we visited; she added a candle. AMAZING!

    Kielbasa cheddar omelette
    Brandon G.

    Great food, great service at this family owned business tucked into the local neighborhood. The blueberry pancakes were so fluffy with a perfect crisped edge that made it so much better then other pancakes I have enjoyed before. Also the kielbasa cheddar omelette was stuffed full of kielbasa and made this a unique meat option you just don't see often at restaurants and worth the try. Also my family enjoyed the cafe extra special breakfast plate made of eggs, sausage, bacon, ham, potatoes and toast. Highly recommend trying if you have not been here before and to revisit if you have before.

    Their stuffed French toasts and their lemon ricotta pancakes sound so yummy. I called ahead to make sure they have dining available and to check their time for hours for today. They are open until 2 PM, that's the last that they'll take orders. They did remind me that they only are allowed 25% capacity and that they had a few tables ready. We're not quite ready to eat just yet, but we will be soon. The woman that answered the phone was extremely friendly and warm. She sounded so sweet. The same woman that answered the call waited on us, she's so genuinely sweet, quite amiable and so polite and attentive too. They have a lot of carry out orders ahead of us, warned us the food may take a while. The guy working in the back as solo. They have broccoli and cheddar quiche with fruit, tomato and basil soup and smoked kielbasa, cheese and veggies. We ordered the Boursin cheese omelet, 1 lemon ricotta pancake for $5 (2 for $8). I also got 1 lemon ricotta pancake. I ended up getting the scramble with spinach, feta, zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms and a cup the Hungarian mushroom soup. The Hungarian soup came out first while we wait for the our food. It's chock full of fresh mushrooms, top to bottom even. It's a colorful and well seasoned creamy broth. The flavors perfect. The waitress put some classic music in the background. Since we are dining solo, she said we could change the station to whatever we like. The lemon ricotta pancake is thick, but super light and fluffy. The lemon glaze is so lemony and fresh and fantastic. The pancake is a bit dense for me, but it's still good. It's like a giant ooey gooey plate sized donut. The scramble is good, nice proportion blend of spinach, mushrooms and zucchini. Side of red skins and green peppers are perfectly cooked and nicely seasoned too. The marble rye and the pumpernickel toasts are nicely toasted. It looks and tastes like a good artisan toast. They use fresh ingredients for their dishes, except the deli sliced Turkey for their Rueben. The woman that waited on us was absolutely lovely, so kind and genuinely nice.

    Caramel apple crunch pancakes

    This place is so tucked away and hidden and unassuming, you'd really miss it if you weren't looking out for it. I can't say much about the ambiance and the sleepy decor but the service, the attentiveness and hospitality makes you feel so special and welcomed. This place is certainly buoyed by locals and you can tell their patrons are regulars but I'm so happy we decided to pop in on a Sunday for brunch. Their menu is not extensive, but what they do offer, all of it sounds delectable. I asked our waitress me what was in the meat trio omelette and she basically lulled me into submission in her description of how they prepared the omelette. I ordered that while my dapper date ordered the caramel apple crunch pancakes, his litmus test for any new brunch place is pancakes. Zero regrets. The pancakes were some of the fluffiest I've ever seen and he appropriately described them as "a bite of an apple orchard." My omelette was so savory, meaty, and flavorful. I tend to lean towards savory items and this hit the spot. I can't wait to try more of their items. A few things to note, - they are small and it's seat yourself. We didn't have to wait for a table but consider yourself warned - don't expect fancy; if you're trying to impress a date, the food will do all the impressing for you. - I took terrible food photos here...don't let that fool you. Taste can't be conveyed through these photos

    Florentine Omlete: Spinach, mushroom, tomato. Minus Swiss cheese
    Holly N.

    Such a cute and cozy brunch spot! Has a country "homey" type feel. Very tiny with not very many tables...only 12 total. The staff is extremely friendly and the food is delicious! I came here with 2 other friends on a Sunday around 12:00pm and didn't have to wait to be seated. We were lucky because every table was full and the groups of people that came in after us had to wait. Our waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable of the menu specials. Not very many vegetarian or gluten free options so I opted for a veggie/Florentine omelet minus cheese with skillet potatoes. Food came out hot and tasted fresh. Loved how crispy the potatoes were! The hazelnut coffee was a very good medium roast. Coffee was refilled without having to ask and the prices were fair for the quantity of food served. At the center of each table there is a tiny book. Ours table had a book of inspiring quotes and poems. Very unique and different.

    Wow!!!! I cannot believe this place has been around for 29years and today was my first time trying it out! Their stuffed French toast is on point!! Large portions too! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted so warmly by the host/waitress! Cannot wait to go back to try everything on the menu!! 5/5 recommend to check it out!! :)

She snagged me a menu and they have a good selection of food to choose from. I ventured off from my usual eggs and hash browns for once and tried their breakfast sandwich. From experience, not all breakfast sandwiches are created equal! I was skeptical from being disappointed in the past. I also ordered a side of hash browns because I wanted to see what they were like. I got the sandwich on Texas toast and let me tell you, it was fabulous! It was egg and cheese only and so good. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the hash browns were as well. They were cubed style, with some onions and spice to it. I topped it off with a dash of hot sauce and boom, there ya go folks, good stuff it is! My bill was about $8 give or take, I can't remember the exact amount. Overall, a good meal for a decent price. While the place isn't super fancy on the inside, it really made a good impression on me!

Reviewing the menu, they have a great selection of breakfast and brunch items to choose from. I read online that they have chicken and waffles, but when I asked the waitress where it was at on the menu, she said it's not listed there and is an "off menu" item that could be prepared for me. After thinking about it, I decided that I was going to get an omlet instead. I got the greek omelet instead and let me tell you, the portions are huge! Food was absolutely delicious and I ate as much as I could. Service was fantastic and I didn't feel pressured to order anything that I wasn't comfortable with. Water and coffee were always full and my bill came in a timely manner. I will be returning when I'm on this side of town for a good solid breakfast. This place should be an example of how to do things correctly without over correcting or trying to hard. I love it here!

I used to live nearby about 25 years ago and remember coming to a diner in this area for breakfast back then. Fast forward to today--this isn't the same place, but wow, it's absolutely amazing. Right away I loved the vibe. The chalkboards with handwritten menu items and daily specials on the walls give the place so much character and charm. It feels welcoming, classic, and cool all at the same time. The customer service was excellent from start to finish--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. I ordered the country breakfast, which came with biscuits and gravy, eggs, toast, potatoes, and sausage--everything was spot on.

I went with the cubed breakfast potatoes (not sure what they officially call them), and they were so much better--crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.

    I finally got to try Toast in Ferndale for brunch!…read more The parking situation is a small lot behind the back and finding a spot on a weekend morning wasn't easy! We didn't have reservations so we did have to wait a while for a table. But, Toast made it manageable with an outdoor waiting area where you can order drinks from the bar. By the way, the outdoor area is not fully insulated, just sectioned off with clear tarp, so it can still feel a little chilly. However, it was nice having somewhere sit and mingle instead of just standing around by the door. Now to the good part: My table ordered the trashy hashy, toast egg sammy, and a muddled strawberry vanilla iced matcha. I started off with the iced matcha and ended with the egg sammy with a side of parmesan grits. The matcha was a little watery but good. The sandwich was super flavorful but very messy.

My sister then asked to speak with a manager. When the manager came over, the other ladies in our group also mentioned the waitress's attitude. Instead of addressing our concerns professionally, the general manager became defensive and stated that the waitress did not have a nasty attitude. He then told us that if we wanted to leave, we could leave because he was not going to be bothered with us. He took our menus and asked us to leave simply because we requested that the table be cleaned properly. I would love to see better service and customers treated with respect! Ms Cheryl W.
