Children will enjoy watching a model train run around a track above the tables.

If you want breakfast at noon in Sarasota, this is the premier place to get it. I shouldn't have to say more than "truffle eggs benedict" to pique your interest. Vegetarian substitutions are cheerfully made. Local eggs are available. I take nearly everyone who visits me here.
Lunch options include a fried green tomato sandwich that makes my heart as happy as my mouth.
