    “Made the mistake of not ordering breakfast at the Breakfast House. Old school diner feel, traditional in every way. Initial impression: burger was sad. Came on a paper plate, cheese wasn’t melted, meat had almost no flavor but juicy and cooked well, veggies were watery, bun was nicely toasted but the bread didn’t hold together well towards the end. The last bite was the best because the cheese had melted by then. The service could not have been better. Sweet southern lady that calls you baby and keeps your cup full the whole time. Going to stick to pancakes and grits for this place moving forward.”
