Breakfast & Brunch
A chicken–centric joint serving big breakfasts, coffee, sandwiches, biscuits & salads in casual digs with exposed–brick walls. We love all the biscuits. Try the Dillingham biscuit (even better if you add an egg)! This is a very popular spot, so try to go early or you may have trouble getting in, especially on weekends. They also offer takeout. 1208 1st Ave.
