At Roses, breakfast and brunch become rituals to savor rather than rush.

This place was a brunch revelation! We were only in town for an overnight visit and decided to try it out, and we're so thrilled we did. The restaurant is incredibly cozy, with a warm and inviting atmosphere, lovely decorations, and charming outdoor seating. The brunch menu was fantastic, offering a great range of options from hearty meals to lighter breakfast fare. The servers were all very nice and attentive. And, oh my goodness, the scones! Seriously, the best scones I've ever tried in my life. Perfectly baked, buttery, and delicious. The dishes were also moderately priced, and the latte was excellent. We will absolutely be back anytime we're in town!

Met up with besties for a delicious medley of delicious brunch items! They don’t take reservations and seem a tad short staffed, get there early! Best chicken and waffles ever!! The Mimosa’s could have been chilled (warm Prosecco is not ideal but not too bad), excellent espresso (definitely grew some hair chest!).

Stopped in today for The Breakfast Burrito and had it with the Smoked House Canadian Bacon. It was a wonderfully creative and tasty treat. The coffee was fantastic as well. The service and friendliness of the restaurant staff added to the experience. Hope to return soon to try other items on the menu.

Went to Roses twice in three days because the initial experience made such a good impression. The first time, we walked in twenty minutes before closing, and while I thought they might turn us away, they welcomed us right in. We started with mimosas, and for our dishes, we decided on the Argentine Churrasco and Eggs and the Espresso Croissant French Toast. The steak came out tender and juicy, and the chimichurri sauce elevated the flavor of the steak, potatoes, and eggs. We then moved onto the French toast, which was soft and fluffy. Surprisingly, it wasn't overly powered by the espresso flavor, and the homemade whipped cream and berry compote added flavors and sweetness to where additional syrup wasn't required. On the second visit, we wanted to try the Huevos Rancheros and the pancakes, along with a cappuccino. Althought the Huevos Rancheros were good, they weren't the best that I've had and seemed to be missing a certain spice that I'm accustomed to. The pancakes were thick, yet light and fluffy, and once again, the whipped cream and berries made little need for additional syrup. The cappuccino was delicious. All in all, a solid breakfast/brunch spot that I will make a mandatory stop when I'm in the area. Would love to try the chicken and waffles on my next visit.

So many great things to say about this place! We all ordered the chicken & waffles, omelette, burrito, burger, churrasco steak and ALL OF THEM TASTED SO GOOD! We had 2 small dogs with us and they allowed pets inside! We also had a baby but the place was spacious enough to have the stroller in with us. Portions are big, bathrooms look fancy and the ambjence is very cozy!

Very pleasant staff, good service, delicious coffee and food, excellent attention to detail (food cooked as requested). We ordered the breakfast burrito and an omelet. Got salad with the omelet- the greens were fresh and the dressing light and flavorful. Would have appreciated more GF options. If you're not GF, the pastries looked amazing. Easy access to and from I90. Will stop in again!
