Love this place! Service is always quick and friendly, and food comes out so quickly! And it's not greasy compared to some other I've been 5-8 times and enjoyed every time.

Breakfast Saturday morning was superb! I had the Santa Fe Omelette with Marble Toast and Shredded Potatoes. My omelette was delicious, hot, and visually appealing. The toast was fresh, and the potatoes tasty. As others commented on, coffee is strong, hot, and continuous. Service was very prompt and friendly. Ample off-street parking. Very economical, too.

Still the best breakfast spot on Cape. Been coming since I've been a young lad. Great food and great service. Place is an institution in Falmouth. Their sweet bread and sweet rolls are amazing. Cash only.
