Crema's Take

Blue Plate Kitchen trades consistency for charm—you might get a wonderfully attentive server and generous portions one visit, then face long waits and lukewarm food the next, making it feel more like a neighborhood gamble than a reliable specialty coffee destination. The coffee itself is traditional and straightforward rather than standout, so you're really here for the full breakfast spread and nostalgic diner vibes, which work best if you're local and willing to overlook the spotty execution and occasionally neglected cleanliness.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Found this place on Instagram and when we searched the address it was 6 minutes away heading in the direction we were going so you know good things were ahead. We had the hash which was good. But the country fried steak and chicken and waffles…. Delicious! I would definitely…
