Rose’s Café is the kind of place I like to go to for a
casual meal: it’s a local small business, the prices are reasonable, you order
your food at the counter and pay for it there, they bring it out to you and you
eat. The selections aren’t fancy but straight up, good breakfast food. It’s
larger inside than I expected from the outside and I’ve been told they had
recently moved to their current location. It’s also nicely airy and bright, all
the better to showcase their baked goods. They have a bakery display counter if
part of your indulgence is bakery goods like croissants, cinnamon rolls,
Danishes, apple fritters and doughnuts.
I met a friend there for brunch and, guided by the yelp
reviews, ordered the breakfast burrito of scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon and
hash browns in a flour tortilla. Simple, straightforward goodness. And it was
cheap. I also bought the apple fritter to split with my friend and the two
items together were less than $10. There are other, more expensive items on the
menu with “expensive” being relative but it was definitely good value for your
money. The breakfast burrito was sizable enough that I could’ve just eaten half
for brunch and half for a late lunch. I didn’t but I could have if I had any
self control.
The apple fritter was okay but I wished it had more
apples. Plenty of fritter, fewer apples. For that kind of raised dough though,
I still defer to Stan’s Donuts, king of donuts and breakfast pastries. I didn’t
try anything else but I definitely want to go back to Rose’s again and explore
their other offerings.

My friend got the French toast combo and I have to say,
the smell of the French toast was to die for. I don’t know why it smelled so
good and normally I don’t order French toast since I could make it so easily at
home but I might have to get it next time, if for no other reason than to
inhale the scent and satisfy my olfactory senses.
