Overall, reviews describe Ben & Florentine as a welcoming spot with generous, tasty dishes and attentive service that makes guests feel looked after, especially at breakfast where thick cut bacon, crispy potatoes, and quality toast are highlighted and portions are large. The atmosphere is bright and the staff are attentive, with early opening and convenient parking near the highway noted as positives and regulars are treated well. There are occasional drawbacks mentioned, including delays in ordering and delivery during busy periods, coffee served cold, and some dishes arriving late or not kept hot, with occasional missing items. Some comments note the breakfast can be pricey relative to the value, though gluten free options are appreciated and many patrons express they will return. Overall, the impression is solidly positive with a few service and value caveats that do not overshadow the appeal of a reliable breakfast and brunch option.View restaurant profile
