Reviews
This was a fun place to stop for breakfast! My brother was in town, we were trying to find an easy place to meet halfway, and honestly there are limited restaurants. We found the Hen & Egg and were very happy with our choice! The menu was very large, the service was great. I couldn't drink my coffee as fast as they were willing to refill, and it was well priced. For the two of us, it was $21 for two coffees and two meals. Portions were good as well. My family has a place not too far and I said they need to add it to their list - we will be back for sure!
Great food at reasonable prices. Staff is always courteous and friendly. Depending on the time you get there you might have to wait for a little while but is definitely worth the wait.
Good food, large portions, nice people. They could put their name On the awning. We almost missed it.
Such a great variety of food from healthy options to fattening ones!! The restaurant was busy however didn't have to wait long. Super cute store in a not so busy downtown area.
Don't even waste your time reading this, go now and get in line to eat!! You will not be sorry! I am so sorry we didn't start going here years ago when they opened, I feel robbed to have lost time with them! Ok, so it is just a breakfast spot and a few lunch items during the week. Breakfast/brunch is all the rage and most of the nicer chain restaurants that specialize in this are pretty expensive. Not only is this place fantastic, it is priced so fairly that I'm scared to even say it in this review because they may decide to raise their prices... But I'll be back even if they do! Since we had never been and because, why not... We ordered a little of everything to give it a try. My wife loves eggs Benedict, and she approves of theirs after eating it on Saturday morning! We also tried a pecan Belgian waffle, French toast, scrambled eggs with sausage patties, and hash brown casserole. Not to mention a couple slices of sourdough toast just to give it a try. Again, we ordered a lot of food and all of it was excellent breakfast fare! We are already planning our return visit this coming Saturday! We're gonna stick with the French toast, eggs, Benedict, and I think I'm going to go for one of the chimichanga breakfast things! It's a small restaurant and very tight seats, however, they turn the tables over quickly and everyone was in a good mood. They told us our wait was going to be about 20 minutes at 9:30 on Saturday morning and it ended up being more like 30 minutes, but that's OK. Oh! Our server was a lady named Savannah and she did an excellent job and we thoroughly appreciated her good service! Run don't walk! To those about to nosh, I salute you!
