"We tried the mini portion of the Churro French Toast and it was the best french toast i've had in my life. Such a unique take on French Toast and the whipped cream was addicting. If your eyes are bigger than your stomach, maybe go with the mini serving of the French toast, it was more than enough for us. We also split the Basic B breakfast with Spam, over-easy eggs, and rice. So simple but delicious - one of my favorite breakfasts to make at home and to order when I can. We also couldn't help ourselves and needed to try their Coconut Cold Brew - I wish I could drink that every morning! The atmosphere was super cute but be mindful that it's limited seating but you have an amazing view of the mountains in the background and on a clear day you might see all the waterfalls around you too. The staff were sweet too! We can't wait to come back next time we are in town and try their plate lunches too!"

"Little spot right off the main road. Restaurant has limited seating and is pretty cluttered so I recommend getting it to go. The cashier wasn’t rude but she wasn’t friendly. We got the breakfast burrito and a half order of the churro French toast. Both were delicious and huge. 1 burrito and 1 half order of the French toast could easily feed three people. They offer coffee but no espresso style coffee. They have cans and bottle soft drinks as well."

"The place has a lovely ambiance and the food is delicious. However, the service was disappointing as the person at the register appeared to be either hungover or not quite alert yet. After placing our order, we had to wait for 5 minutes to receive our muffin and cups for our coffee. When my wife inquired about the delay, the server apologized halfheartedly and handed over the muffin and cup. Unfortunately, the coffee had run out, and we had to get the server's attention again to refill the self-serve container. Despite the poor service, the coffee was excellent, and we believe that with the right person at the register, the experience could be great. We think it's worth giving the place another try due to the excellent food, coffee, and charming ambiance."

"Food was good all around. Took a little while to get our food, but it was worth it. There’s not a lot of seating to eat, but they do have some cool things to look at and buy inside the shop."

"Adorable little shop! Very friendly barista/owner and you can get amazing tacos as well. Can’t beat the view of the mountains and waterfalls. Definitely stop by!!"
