The best breakfast around! Family friendly and portion sizes are insane. Busy place but the tables turn fast. Not a boozy brunch - to my knowledge they don't serve alcohol.

Fall Activities
This is a beautiful hilly orchard set back from a lake nearby. Perfect for a fall outing with hay rides, photo opps, apple picking and so many goodies in the bakery! I love this place. It can get busy in peak weekend hours but you may just need to park a little farther away.

Getting around
Road Construction
Part of Mahtomedi Ave is under construction for all of summer 2022. It makes it a little more time consuming to get to the closest grocery stores - Festival and Aldi. Google maps should detour you.
