Athens Cafe Weekend Breakfast Buffet

“Athens Cafe has a really good breakfast buffet til noon on Saturday and Sunday.”

“Oh thank you. I went last year and forgot all about this place. That buffet was incredible. I skipped lunch and had a light dinner because I was still full, LOL.”

“Yessss it’s so good and we always skip lunch too lol. I love that you can get omelets or eggs made your way and then they just have everything!!

Just an FYI — you can ask for hashbrowns or toast for no extra cost. They just don’t keep them out since they won’t stay as fresh.”
