I got the biscuits and gravy, and my boyfriend ordered an egg breakfast with sausage and bacon, and everything was really good. The food came out fresh and flavorful, and it was exactly what we were hoping for. We did have about a ten-minute wait for a table, but it was the day after Easter, so we expected it to be a little busy, and it honestly was not bad at all. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was great too, really comfortable and easygoing, and it felt like a place you could sit and enjoy your time. Overall, such a great spot and one I would definitely recommend if you are in the area.

My son and I check out of our hotel and needed spot to for breakfast. Our target? A charming little…read morecafé that looked like it had big dreams and about 85% of the throw pillows to prove it. We grabbed seats at the bar--prime real estate for both people-watching and silent negotiations with the universe about how long coffee should take to arrive. The menu got a thorough inspection while we waited. And waited. Not a hostile wait. More like... a polite standoff between us and the concept of service. Eventually, victory. Orders placed. I went all in: biscuits and sausage gravy, eggs over easy, maple bacon--the kind of breakfast that doesn't whisper "good morning," it kicks the door in and demands respect. My son went classic with French toast and sausage, a choice that says, "I trust the fundamentals." Now, let's talk ambiance. Coffee in paper cups. Not a dealbreaker, but it does send a subtle message: "We're still figuring some things out." The interior felt like a Pinterest board mid-argument--close, but not quite ready for the reveal episode. Service? Nice. Professional. Also slightly resembling a live-action game of pinball. Our waitress was great, but the overall flow had a certain freestyle jazz quality--improvised, energetic, and occasionally confusing. Refills were more of a "self-reflection exercise" than an offered service, so ordering extra water was a tactical masterstroke. But then... the food arrived. And just like that, all sins were forgiven. That biscuit and sausage gravy? Absolute bullseye. The kind of dish that makes you pause mid-bite and question whether your childhood memories have been quietly outperformed. It didn't just taste homemade--it tasted like someone's mom was in the back, judging everyone and getting it right. The French toast held its own--golden, solid, no nonsense. Exactly what it needed to be. So here's the deal: the service may have been running a little behind the breakfast parade, but the food? Leading the band, confetti cannon and all. Final verdict: 4 stars. Not because it couldn't be 5--but because it's this close. Tighten up the service, ditch the paper cups, finish decorating like you mean it, and you've got a heavyweight contender. Until then, it remains a gem--slightly unpolished, but absolutely worth the stop.

Just WOW! The service was great, prompt and friendly. A good basic breakfast and lunch menu, but…read moredon't miss the pastry case! It's full of yummy choices - one of us had the gooey bun and raved about it! The eggs and grits were cooked perfectly and came out hot! The highlight is the maple bacon - both of us loved it! This is a laid back local joint with great food and a family feel to it. We will definitely be back on our next trip through Florida! BTW we were going to take pictures of the food but we couldn't wait to eat it, oops!

The chicken and waffles Benedict was good other than he wasn't a fan of this particular hollandaise sauce (no judgement everyone makes it different and that's ok). The biscuits and gravy were good! Hashbrowns were on point! We also ordered a Sunliner French Toast for the table, it was good but nothing to rave about. Atmosphere was great (if you don't mind a loud diner)! Our waitress was awesome, however we can't remember her name. The menus (looks like a newspaper) were super cute. Loved reading all the fun facts from the 50's. Overall we had a great experience and we will definitely try it again soon.

Beautiful bar where you can sit if you'd like!

I ordered one of the most expensive dishes on the menu $29.99 and he ordered a $15.99 coconut chicken salad along with two diet cokes. When we got the check they had calculated the check with a 20% service charge. We asked what it was and was told it was 16% for her and 4% for the kitchen. Nothing based on the service or how good the food was an automatic 20%. No warning at all! As they were seating, another customer that server said have you been to the boathouse before and the customer said yes. So she stated you are aware of the service charge then. The customer said yes. Maybe us saying something about it is why she said that, not sure, but we were never informed and we've never had that explained to us before either.
