KATIE'S COOKS

Katie's Cooks is like your favorite auntie's kitchen, but with better decor and a menu that doesn’t suck. The Eggs Royale is so good it should probably be illegal, and the generous portion sizes mean you won’t leave hungry. Pair that with a caramel latte that will make you question every other coffee you've ever had — and you’ve got yourself a brunch winners' circle.

Sure, some might grumble about the sausage not being fresh, but overall, the place is a buzzing hub of good vibes and great food. The staff are sweethearts, and the owners treat you like family. So if you’re in the area, skip the chain cafes and go where the love (and the food) is.
