I was skeptical to come back, but I did because of all of the positive experiences my friends had. I am so glad I returned! I love this cafe.

The Big Bowl has a great egg, to meat to gravy to potato ratio, and tastes great. My wife had the Hot eggs in a basket, which was a May Special and was also amazing.

In this case, the early bird most definitely gets the worm…read more I visited this local cafe after seeing Rufus Du Sol at the Gorge. Unfortunately for me, many other concert goers had the same Sunday morning plan. While The Early Bird is delicious, it's by no means speedy. We originally received a 45-minute wait for takeout, but ended up waiting closer to 75-minutes. My order consisted of the Eggs Benedict bowl with the veggie medley, monkey bread, and a hazelnut iced latte. The perfect cure after a night of debauchery. You can tell they're doing their best to manage crowd control, especially the morning after a popular concert. Something to note is that you must have a table secured before ordering food. They don't let you order and wait to be seated to help lessen the crowding. Pro tip: the city park behind this building is much better spot to wait for your food. There's seating and even private bathrooms - a god-send after a night of camping at the Gorge.

I waited out of the drive thru for 2 cars to get through (a third pulled in & left) then I went in and guessed an order at the person. Pretty dang friendly. We jived a little, it was fun, we made it work. I will now replay the conversation as it followed: Emp: "Can I get'cha anything else?" Me: "Ah, sure [X]" Emp: "We don't have [X]. I thiiiink that [Y] is about the closest" Me: "Well I'll do it" Emp: "Excellent. You want a cookie?" Me: "Uuuummmm..." Emp: "M&m, only here for a short time" Me: "Uuuhh, sure." Emp: "Why don't you just get one of every cookie?" Me: "Naw...I don't think I can swing tha-" Emp: "Why not?" ........ Me: "-Wha?" Emp: "Why not?" Me: "I... don't want an-" Emp: "Why not? They're only a dollar each." Me: "Huh- um- they are? Okay..." Emp: "Yeah!" *adds them to order* "Yep, they're $1.39 each" Me: "Wai-" Emp: "Are you on drugs?" *stunned silence* Me: "Aw yeah, yeah of course" Emp: "Really?" Me: "uh, nevermind" Emp: "So you're sober?" This person was now staring into my soul. I thought that was a joke. Emp: "When was the last time?" Me: "I mean, my liver's clean." Emp: "So you're not sober..." They sank their head. They looked genuinely heartbroken They then spent the next 15 minutes trying to convince me to go to rehab, cut me off every time I tried to answer their questions, then ended with trying to bring me to Jesus. I mentioned money issues in regular conversation, and they cut me off to scream that I needed to get off drugs. To emphasize, I am not on drugs, and I do know Jesus. However, this employee had already decided my reality. Then they asked for a tip. Recap: -No menu or prices at the drive thru -How is it possible for an ice cream parlor to take so long? -Interaction started alright. That was bait. -Got hit with the ~lying~~upsell~~Evangelize~ switcheroo And the cookies suck
