This place was a pleasant surprise! All the food was really good! The waffles and French toast were amazing. My suegra liked it so much she wanted to go back the next day.

Super sweet employees, the food is fantastic, their chicken and waffles are to die for. I honestly hate myself for waiting so long to go there. Would recommend and will definitely go more often.

I tried to come here a few days ago, but all the parking spaces were full. I decided to come back a few days later, and I was able to get in. I had heard about it, so I decided to give it a try. There was so much on the menu that I couldn't decide. I finally settled on the Mushroom and Swiss Omelet. It came with Hash Browns and Toast, so I settled on Wheat Toast. I also had a Diet Pepsi. It was delicious! I will probably come back, but when I don't know, since it is on the west side. It is very nice and brightly decorated. It looks nicer than the restaurant previously in this location. I can see why it was hard to get into the other day.

Best breakfast on our cross country road trip and the best waffles of my life! Crispy, fluffy, and perfectly flavored—the carrot cake waffles needed no syrup. And the hash browns covered in biscuits & gravy were delish. And the coffee is solid ( free refills). But the real star of By Hand & Fork is the service—Destinee brightened our day with her kindness and helped us finish breakfast in 30 minutes because we were on a schedule. She was amazing. Wish we lived nearby cuz we’d be here OFTEN. wheelchair acccessible entrance and tables.

I visit By Hand and Fork regularly. The staff members are always kind. There is a nice small town diner feel here. The prices are reasonable and the food arrives at your table quickly. I really enjoy all of their breakfast items. The loaded waffles, however, pack a sweetness-punch. The omelettes are wonderful!

Plenty of parking, very welcoming staff and environment. The coffee and breakfast was absolutely delicious. If my husband had more time, he would have ordered a third round of French toast

I went there for lunch with my girlfriend and her family. This place was busy, and we were forced to park on the street, but I'm honestly not complaining. It was breakfast time, so I got the chicken and waffles everyone else got this and that.The service was wonderful, and we were drinking a lot of coffee at our table.We jokingly made a comment about just bringing a pot and leaving it and they did!That's top-tier service.
