  Not too shabby! I mean, not everything is ever going to be perfect so there’s no reason to be rude just because you are semi anonymous. So go here and see for yourself if you like it. Sometimes we have bad days and shouldn’t try to close a business because of a small snafu. I mean, I could be super specific and tell you who I worked with and what great service I had, or what wonderful food I was able to have, but that stuff changes day-to-day and we all need to realize that and stop being so snarky to people simply because we have the power to do so with a super computer in our hand. That’s why I am making sure to leave good reviews on places so that the world can maybe be a nicer place. We all need it.

  My husband I and love hope breakfast bar. There’s a reason this one has the lowest ratings. Not exactly sure what happened, but my meal yesterday tasted like chemicals… The default 30% tip is wild 💀

  You could go for a drink but the food is not good. The pancakes were so dry we couldn’t swallow them. The manager tried to argue that they were not dry but we looked at the table next to us. And they had paid and left their stack of pancakes with two bites taken out of them, too funny.

  Almost turned away a group of moms who has made a reservation because we didn't include our infants (who can't even sit) in the reservation?? Initially rude hostess but the manager fixed it. Honestly, expensive food for what they serve. The food was tasty, but $30 for a standard waffle with fruit and a latte is a bit extreme.

  As others have mentioned getting something "crispy" like hash browns or an extra toasted bread / bagel is very hard here. Namely because the plates are narrow and don't allow breads to be placed on the plate without being steamed by hash browns which still have a lot of moisture in them. You can ask for it to be brought out in a side dish, but it just seems like a bad design that I have to remember to ask for this EVERY TIME. And I get it, some people don't care if they're hash browns aren't crispy, or that their bread is toasted. But if that's not you, then be warned. Atmosphere: In general I find the place too loud. Seem to be a lot of parents letting their kids run around screaming treating it like a playground. Almost certain that's not exclusive to this place but it does seem to draw that crowd. Music is also played fairly loud to my ears, though I know that's subjective. But between that, the kids, the clanking of servers handling cutlery, random things being dropped with a loud clang. I would probably recommend bringing some noise canceling earbuds or headsets if you're the type that can't hear themselves think in a lot of noise. Service: They are all okay. None of them have super impressed though. Perhaps they are short staffed. You always have to ask for water, been here eight times now and never been asked. And when it comes to settling up the bill, I'm not a fan of a server standing there as I'm at the point of paying and deciding on the tip. The screen defaults to 30% with the taxes lumped in with the meal, and I just feel like that's a little unfair. Why should taxes that increase the bill increase my tip which is based on service? On top of that they usually engage in small talk asking you questions EXACTLY at that point. Probably not intentional on their part, but it all makes it harder along with the noise to think. So in short they are okay. They are close to where I live so convenience is why I keep coming here. Against more competition, that would probably change.
