An upbeat and extremely welcoming atmosphere. The menu is almost 100% gluten-free without having to pay extra for gluten-free options. The person who ordered the cinnamon roll pancakes said they were amazing. The drag show was interactive and I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes.

Made a reservation for Christmas Eve weeks ahead. It wasn’t until we got there that we saw it was closed for the day. No call or email to let us know they’d be closed on Christmas Eve. We even had family from Vancouver planning to come that weekend but due to the winter storm they cancelled, would have been even more disappointed if they were able to make it.

The menu posted online was not current and they no longer had the items we thought we would like to try. The menu is somewhat limited. The items we did order were mehhhh… 5/10 at best. The service however was great!
