Amazing cinnamon bread, thin layers, moist, tender, flaky on the outside, toasted heaven. The frittata was reportedly delicious. I had asparagus, asiago and ham quiche. The quiche was awesome, texture, flavor, amount of veg n meat, flakey buttery crust.

What can I say? This is probably my favorite breakfast spot in the general Rochester area. The other favorite is probably Patty's Pantry in Greece, but that's literally across town from me.
CCC is a quaint, cozy, and cute little place that you'll probably miss if you're not looking for it. It doesn't have much flashiness or neon signs on the outside, but once you come in, it's a warm and friendly little breakfast cafe that always has fresh hot coffee, tasty breakfast concoctions, and some of the best homemade bread you'll ever allow to penetrate your mouth hole.
Parking can be a little tough so get there early. Or park across the street at Dunkin Donuts. Their hours are annoying, but it is what it is. If you want it, make it so. And this place is worth it to make it so. There's no breakfast for dinner unfortunately (although I think they'll have plenty of business if they opened into the afternoon!)
The food is SO good. It's hearty, generous, tasty, and excellently done. Lots of different breakfast options and combos. Don't forget to look at the menu board for specials. My wife especially loves that they have the Finger Lakes Coffee Jamaican Me Crazy flavor. I usually end up getting whatever breakfast items plus one of their awesome pancakes. Their carrot cake pancake is effing ridiculous and it'll make you awesomer to consume it. Their fruited healthcakes are basically granola pancakes with fruit on top and are another excellent choice. Basically, anything you order is going to be tasty. Don't come here expecting white gloves and a little dot of truffle oil on a huge white plate. This is a down home breakfast diner that serves hearty homestyle meals.
Food and coffee aside, the lovely ladies who work here are your sweethearts next door. They always have a smile and always have good conversation. I wish I could make more time to come here on a more regular basis, but life keeps happening. But whenever we have a chance, we always try to come here. It's always a wonderful time.
There is no TL;DR version of this review. Read the whole damn thing, OR NOT. Go here, enjoy your coffee, enjoy your food, say hi to the ladies, and have a wonderful day.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - John D.Plainfield, IN1005512Sep 30, 2017
We LOVED LOVED LOVED this jewel! We went here because we saw they serve gluten-free pancakes. We will return at EVERY OPPORTUNITY because the owner is one of the sweetest people we've ever met - as are her staff and the food is unique and delicious.
The carrot cake pancakes were AMAZING. The coffee was fantastic, as were the gluten free pancakes (with fresh blueberries). The pecan-crusted French toast looked awesome, too.
We love to find great, locally-owned gems like this.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Veronika S.Macedon, NY1148108Aug 12, 2018
Cozy and cute! This place is a must with great, fresh finger lakes roasters coffee ( many flavors). The wait can belong since the place is small and you might need to double park your car since the lot can maybe fit 15 cars. Most people also part at the Dunkin' across the street. The carrot cake pancake and cinnamon toast is delicious and a must try! Beware of the wait but worth it!

When driving through Victor looking for breakfast, you may be tempted to stop at Burger King, DD's, or McD's. Say no to temptation and turn in to the ramshackle building that offers breakfast from 7 to 11:30 -- the Chit Chat Cafe.
Homemade bread, egg plates, frittattas, muffins. All fresh and homemade. Clearly this is a locals place aS everyone is addressed by name. No worries. You'll soon be a friend, too
Try the cinnamon twist toast which is buttered and lightly grilled. So yummy!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Owen Q.Canandaigua, NY45126Oct 12, 2017
My first impression.
-Great coffee selection. Fresh.
- as a breakfast place you shouldn't hear the microwave going off every few minutes. Sure enough my homefries were sitting in water from the "jambalaya plate".
- service was as mediocre which is understandable from level of customers vs. Staff on hand.
- I gave a 2 star for fresh coffee selection and home made bread.
- There seemed to be 1 cook and 1 microwave in the back .
- Wife and I went here from a friends recommendation . We are no longer friends from this.
- next time you are here listen for the beeping. Good luck and eat fresh.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Tara H.Victor, NY094Jul 21, 2017
Great little spot for breakfast! Couldn't find a menu online so we weren't sure what to expect. I knew they offered baked goods before heading in but they also have your run of the mill items, too, like omelets & frittatas. A word to the wise, though: their pancakes are huge! We are talking plate-sized flap jacks! And their cinnamon twist bread is so yeasty & delicious.

This is one of my favorite breakfast joints of all time. They are SO friendly and welcoming. All of the the servers are amazing and on top of their stuff. Don't even get me started on the food! Their homemade bread is to die for and their pancakes are the size of a dinner plate. They have gluten free options which is amazing for people who don't normally get to enjoy special breakfasts. Nothing makes my morning more special than going to chit chat with my mom!

Absolutely love this little cafe. I went here for my birthday and got eggs, homefries, and cinnamon toast. They serve local fresh brewed Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters coffee, which is awesome, and their staff are all extremely welcoming and helpful.
MAKE SURE to upgrade your toast to the cinnamon toast, it is so worth it. Best item on the menu.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Terri C.Melbourne, FL12Jul 18, 2015
After reading the positive Yelp reviews, my husband & I decided to try this place, but we kinda doubted it would really be THAT great. But it is!! Yes, it's small & there was a wait, but definitely worth it. The staff were very friendly, and when we mentioned it was our first time there, our server explained the different options in parts of the menu & portion sizes (which are HUGE!) and that all the breads are made fresh each day.
He ordered 2 kinds of pancakes -- carrot cake (so good he didn't even need syrup) & oatmeal pecan-- and he raved about both. I also ordered 2-- blueberry & chocolate chip. We both added sides of eggs. The pancakes are as big as the plate! Neither of us could finish it all.
Our new favorite breakfast place -- we will definitely be back to try more of the possibilities!Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
