First time here. Not a bad wait for brunch. No wait if we wanted outside. We had the build your own burrito, small size of the pecan crusted French toast, burrito bowl, and quiche of the moment with gravy biscuits and potatoes. My son’s burrito looked and tasted good. He had bacon, spinach, tomatoes and cheddar. He approved. We all shared the French toast and it was delicious. The fruit, pecans and syrup went great together on the delicious toast. The burrito bowl was heavy on potatoes and light on the chorizo. Really looking forward to the chorizo. The quiche was peppers, onions and cheddar. Nicely cooked and delicious. The potatoes were heavily seasoned, which I love. The biscuits and gravy were good. Definitely coming back.

Great family owned…neighborhood cafe. I’ve only been for breakfast/brunch but never disappoints. Pictured is the burrito bowl. If you’re ever feeling a boozy brunch, that option is also available. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a solid breakfast/brunch option.

Frequent here once every few weeks for a solid breakfast burrito they have. Today tried to Benedicts, and both were solid choices. The place is small inside but tons of outside seating all over the building. We prefer the counter for conversation and seeing the action. A great little local spot for some good bites.

Had breakfast at The Neighborhood Cafe for the first time a few weeks back and we really enjoyed it. We were seated right away even though it was busy. Service was top tier and food was really good, especially for the price. We ordered the Breakfast Burrito and the Burrito Bowl. Everything tasted great and we would definitely come back again!

Food was delicious, the restaurant was cozy and relaxed, the staff was so nice, it was an absolute joy of a restaurant. I'm not one to take pictures of my food ever, but my meal looked too good to pass up on the opportunity. Our waitress was so kind and had fun with our daughter, and made celebrating her 3rd birthday absolutely wonderful. If you're in the area, you're a fool if you don't stop in for lunch!
