They close at 3 PM and actually start shutting down about 2:45. We arrived at 2:15 and were seated for awhile with no server. I had to go seeking a server. There were 6 servers in the place and one other table. When our designated server did arrive, she seemed harried. The place is a myriad of colors. Chartreuse chairs,... More

Wow, what a great breakfast. Everything on the menu looked so good. I'm hoping to have a chance to come back. The corned beef hash was not your everyday corned beef hash. The potatoes were perfect and the chunks of corned beef very tasty. My daughter's breakfast burrito was wonderful. Its a very cute place, too.

Our daughter lives nearby Simple, we do not. It can be quite busy, try not to go on a weekend unless you are prepared to wait. Clean, bright & yes, simple. The attitude towards food is spot on....fresh local ingredients make great food. The coffee is satisfying, the orange juice super fresh! Eggs, potatoes, meats have flavor as food should.... More

Great ambiance, friendly staff, good food. My omelette was a little over cooked but my wife enjoyed her grilled cheese & tomato soup. Considering how heavy the food in WI tends to be I would count this place on the healthier end of the spectrum.

You MUST have the potatoes...not usually a big fan of taters, but these were herbed and so amazing. Everything about the place, the fresh menu, healthy spin on old favorites, the lovely tea pot, highly recommend it, will be back for sure.

We went to Simple based on many of the reviews here. Overall we were disappointed. I have mixed reviews on the staff.. there was an issue with a reservation that I was told they'd accommodate due to our large party (even called two additional times to confirm the reservation) but when we arrived I was told there was NO reservation...

Hubby and I went for breakfast on Sunday and it was soooo good, went back for lunch on Monday. If they were open for dinner, would have hit that meal, too. I had the Simple Breakfast Sandwich that was wonderful; the man had his go-to corned beef hash. He declared it the best corned beef hash he had ever eaten...and... More

We've been here a few times now and each time we've really enjoyed it. I like the different take on typical breakfast food. It's unique and done very well. I've tried all the versions of their Eggs Benedict and can't really decide which one I like best. My wife will usually try whatever the special is and she's never been... More

Chorizo black bean burrito - flavorless and the eggs were overcooked. I didn't even finish eating it, and I don't normally waste food. Pancakes - very little flavor, but not as flavorless as the burrito was. Good texture though, and they were served piping hot. Potatoes - they were delicious but they were room temperature, and it seemed I got... More

I know all the other reviews are fabulous, so it must be this place just didn't suit me. I had a bowl of chicken soup. It was good. My ginger iced tea had a unique flavor which wasn't quite to my liking. As you can see, I did not have an unusual or special item for my lunch, so my... More
