Great food, been multiple times. Unfortunately not best environment this time around. Had a group of five cram in around a table for four right next to us for a Chesters server group training session. Couldnât have cared less that we were there. Very loud trainer barking out info and asking questions. Hard for us to have a conversation. We mentioned it to manager who came and talked with the trainer. He obviously cared less (as did the manager) as they continued on. 1pm lunch on October 24 in case owner might want to follow up with staff. Doubt we will be back! If they could care less about us, why should we give them our business???Our GM has reached out to you and we sincerely apologize for the disruption to your meal.Our managers do sincerely care and have spoken to the new trainer about the situation.We do hope that you will consider coming back and letting us do right by you as we take all of our reviews seriously.

We were between mayo appts and decided to venture away from downtown and Iâm sure glad we did! This place is nothing less than incredible for breakfast!! Great atmosphere, good service and fresh delicious food! They have awesome patio spots with a view of the pond and even a private party room with a patio which is neat! We will be back again next time we are in town! Would love to try the regular menu too since the breakfast was absolutely mouth watering! We are very happy to hear that you ventured away from Downtown and found us. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us this nice review and we look forward to giving you another great experience next time you stop in.
