The Willows in Huntertown

There are lots of good breakfast choices around Fort Wayne, and one of my current favorites is just east of Lima Road at 1601 Gump. The Willows greets you with a friendly bakery counter, where smiling back at you are the staff and some seasonal favorites - decorated cupcakes, pies, and cheesecakes. We are usually there after church for breakfast, however, and by-pass the counter until we're finished. If available we'll head straight for a corner booth.

There's a kids menu, and my kids like the big pancake that's been whimsically crafted into a pig's face - complete with pointy ears, eyes and snout - $3. For me it's more protein and less carbs in the morning - I go for the classic breakfast with eggs, potatoes, bacon and toast. Our family of five can eat for around $20.

Check out some colorful history of Huntertown on framed newspaper clippings and photos in the lobby. There's also a bar on the east end of the building, where smoking is still allowed - this is Allen County but outside of the city of Fort Wayne's no-smoking ordinance.
