Great service, fast & friendly. Got the cinnamon roll French toast and strawberry stuffed French toast. Both very good and just enough. Got sides of bacon and potatoes, which were excellant. Everything was excellent. Outside seating was nice.

Our whole crew loved their food and would go back and recommend this place. BLT with avocado was perfect, biscuits and gravy were fantastic, crescent rolls were huge and scrumptious, chicken salad and fruit were delicious, and much more. Service was super friendly...Read More

Delicious...... I had the Blacked Shrimp Eggs Benedict. WOW. But (a small one) grits were bland, but with little salt and pepper and butter of course, they came to life. I'll definitely be back.

Ian is a friendly server and our food came out exactly as ordered, even with modifications we requested. The outdoor seating is shady, quiet and pleasant. Will definitely come bam next time we visit Venice.

Cute little HomeTown breakfast, lunch, and brunch restaurant serving salad, sandwiches, soups, and breakfast. I ordered a tuna melt which was to die for, the chicken salad also excellent. They have tables both inside and outside and the service is quick.
