Fresh pastries and coffee drinks! Donuts, cookies, incredible cakes... also available is a large menu of non-breakfast goodies, sometimes you crave Swedish Meatballs with Lingonberries!

Or enjoy a lazy morning with delicious goods and enjoy the slow pace of life by the lake.

Favorite 'secret spot' for great food. Unassuming outside, usually need reservations unless you get there when the door opens and snag a spot at the bar. LOVE the 'Black and Blue'. We go for special events and always enjoy what we have.
