Absolutely (to use) over the moon awesome, never had anything close except on trips to NOLA. NOT your average breakfast cafe. We had FRESH crab meat omelets, nearly a whole fresh avocado on top, authentic New Orleans beignets, exceptional coffee (not left on a warmer to get bitter), and so on. Cheap meal, no way, worth it, OH SO MUCH. Now that it has become a chain restaurant, I have noticed it is nothing like we experienced in Charleston. We eat there about every couple months (winter park village) when we make our Whole foods, Costco, Trader Joe's runs all in the same day. Food is still above average, but... definitely NOT the same as it once was. Will "hope" (lol, probably foolish "hope") the villages location will have outstanding food very worth the price, but .... kind of thinking, probably not !

You got me drooling - can’t wait for opening - we need more “high end” eating venues here inTV.

First Watch is also about $20 a person for breakfast and its pretty delicious. As far as IHOP and Denny's go, they are both places to get breakfast but neither is near Brownwood and I've never been to an IHOP where something I touched wasn't sticky. I'll be happy if the price keeps the headcount down to a normal level so I'm not waiting an hour for a seat.

We bought at the end of '21 and we were told that Magnolia Plaza was getting a CVS and 7-11. The 7-11 is at least up and making progress, but they haven't broken ground on the CVS yet. Not sure if that is a trade's issue, CVS issue or both.....

Stopped by Saturday and a guy came out and told me they were opening on Wednesday Feb 15th. They are currently training. He was also giving out BOGO cards for a medium sub.
