Vegetarians , there's little here for us but most items can be made meat free just by asking. The coffee is top of the line Ferris coffee , and the veggies are all super fresh and robust!

The best breakfast in town . Get here early, very popular on the weekends. Great gluten free bread and amazing corn beef hash !

Yummy Irish and polish skillet . Maybe next time I will get corned beef hash by itself since not enough in the Irish skillet

The best Polish Mexican restaurant in the city . The 8th street classic for breakfast or the polish Reuben with fresh homemade sauerkraut for lunch

Try the 1St Street - So good!!! Egg whites and grilled red skin potato and toast and the ham is always amazing!!!

James Rider

Good food, the owner always works the room to be sure guests are happy...a favorite spot!

Laken Antcliff

The best homemade biscuits and gravy ever! Also, try the dill pickle soup for lunch . Sounds weird, but its awesome!

Kristin Weis

I always for no meat or a substitution for the meat and the waitresses insist they can't do that so I have to talk with the manager each time. Decide what your policy is and make it consistent!

MichiganGoat

Everything just don't wear tight pants because you will be stuffed and happy when you leave

James Rider

Everything is good, but just to change things up-be sure to get the list of specials-always something a little different and always good!

Dave C

Try the Cuban Skillet - This scramble mix comes with potatoes , ham , onions , salsa , and black beans . It's great.

Amby Borrello

They should really think about expanding their inside dinning. It's always worth the wait, but it would be nice for more indoor seating.

Kiki Karpus

My favorite breakfast place in Grand Rapids. Shhh - keep it a secret!

Deanna Washburn

Omg so much food. It was actually fresh and served warm cant wait to come back :)

Hungry, hungrier, and hungriest there is something for everybody.

KILLy Munster

Our breakfast was very tasty & had generous proportions

Cameron Hagedon

2nd Street is the best street. Also 12th street is awesome.

Mily

They offer gluten free bread at no extra charge! This is now my favorite place.

Paige Rubleski

Used to work here! The manager Fran is not keen on following health codes. She contaminates new food with old food and puts her bare hands in things and eats them. Wait staff is nice and quick.

Brad Ashton

I don't know what coffee they use, but It's the only place I drink coffee ! Great breakfast for the money.

Amis ✩

Try the 2 Egg Whites , Fresh Fruit , 1 Whole Wheat Toast

Tyler Yaeger

I had a hard time finding the place. I didn't know which sid of town to go to.

Chris Maki

It's a little awkward that the waitress is forced to run through the list of the daily specials . It takes way to long and everyone involved dies a little inside during the process.

Chris Maki

Great food for very a very reasonable price. It's about time a place like this opened on the west side.

Will Messenger

It's all delicious. Had all the st's. Say hi to Fran, she's rad.

Brooke DeBaar

This place is great. Staff is super nice. Get the 6th st. It's delish.
