I have been wanting to go here for years and finally made it last week with my son. I had to take him out of school early for a doctors appointment and I took him for a special lunch afterwards. He got the kids cheeseburger and I got French toast. He asked for pickles with his burger & they certainly didnt let him down. He got a ton of pickle slices and he was so happy. We loved being able to watch the planes take off and come in. Our waitress Stephanie (I think was her name) was awesome! We will definitely be back!

Excellent eggs and bacon! Pancakes were great! Home fries could have been better though. Lots of planes to watch landing and departing. Kids enjoyed it!

We came here on a Friday at noon time. We were told 30 minute wait. We waited an hour for a table then we waited another 15 minutes for a server to come take our order. We ordered sandwiches which did not need to be cooked and waited another 45 minutes for them to come out. Ordered coleslaw which was just Mayo on it no vinegar mixture. Very tasteless food. Would not recommend this place at all

Great place!! Love the planes outside! But sitting outside was not pleasant. Alot of bumblebees..the table is iron with holes and milk and food spill to ground attracting bees and alot birds. Gets so dirty. Milk brought to table for coffee was over filled and spilled through table wetting my pants and ground.
Asked to go inside right away. Got eggs benedict asked hollandaise on side but was on top. Was yummy. Food was good. Small but nice inside. Would return to eat inside only. No more then 2 of us. Tables small and tight area.

We were looking for a good breakfast place in Mansfield and found this little nook at the airfield! The food was great, the service was fantastic and the view wonderful. We tried a variety of dishes but my favorite is still the biscuits and gravy with a couple of eggs on top. We went back three times over the week and enjoyed every visit. On top of that we have four little monkeys and the wait staff was very nice and understanding of our children being children! We loved it and highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

Food was great! Cold brew coffee was strong! Didn't have any ice in the 0lastic cup tho which I thought was weird but not a huge deal. Service was good as well short wait time for a table and was asked if we preferred inside or outside(I like options). Cool experience to eat a good breakfast and watch helicopters and small planes land/take off right near you! Was Def fun!
