Best WLM Reviews

Nice looking place. Menu is a bit odd with mostly create your own. I like to have creations ????‍♀️ portions are HUGE. Neither of us could finish our breakfast. We should have only gotten one.
Food was okay. If it wasn’t for all the cheese in my scrambled platter I don’t think mine would have had much flavor.
Service was good.
Breakfast restaurant with a typical American breakfast. Weak coffee, large portions and fast service. The café fills up very quickly in the morning, as the surrounding hotels offer their breakfast at horrendous prices in addition to the overpriced overnight prices, so you will mostly find a lot of hotel guests from the surrounding hotels here. Locals, on the other hand, are rare. The quality is mediocre, the portions large, but you have to eat something for breakfast. All in all, too expensive for the quality.
No complaints here. In my wife’s words it was “the best waffle she has ever had”. Food was good, service was great, and the atmosphere was decent. Just a nice chill spot to have breakfast or brunch at.
The egg skillets were really tasty, but they are also super filling so I would recommend splitting with someone. Definitely try the orange juice, it might be the best OJ I've ever had. The Belgium waffle was also really crispy and tasty!
All day breakfast! Lots of “build your own” I guess since people always ask for substitutions just makes it easier to satisfy. Nice staff. Clean/bright atmosphere. Coffee is weak so if you like dark coffee for for espresso ☕️
Decent, average food. Was disappointed with the food. The service is excellent and the kitchen is fast! We were able to get a seat right away after our flight around 8am.
Unfortunately the food is bland, very surprised by the eggs. No way they were fresh. Hashbrown, mid. Chicken liver, okay. Pancakes, good!
I heard a lot of great things, maybe we just came on a bad day or didn’t get the right items.
Great location with okay food. We stopped by on a Tuesday morning and were seated outside in 10 minutes. Food was great. However,service could be better for sure. Tables are super small and us being 6 people on 2 small tables was a hustle. Price wise was affordable compared to surrounding restaurants.
4 stars but will be back soon so I will update for sure.
I came here a lot but i doubt ill come back after today. For starters i've never been touched so much by a server ever in my life it got very uncomfortable. The soup was just watered down to a point it didnt taste like anything, bacon was dry and burnt not crispy and there was enough lettuce in my blt to feed a family of 3. My girlfriends eggs were very undercooked and tasted like nothing Wont even mention the constant bumping into my chair as i try eat due to the poor layout of the tables.
