Wow! Imagine my complete surprise when I stopped by the old Club One location and found someting called Excuses Extreme Cafe. The owners have kept some of the old, but upscaled the colors and added great seating - big tables and small ones along with a restaurant now where one of the bars used to be. Smelled great inside - Deborah was just pulling out a tray of freshly baked Rasberry / White chocolate scones out of the oven. Who would ever have thought of scones at Club One...Oh yes, EXCUSES - cute name! They say they want to give people ""excuses"" to come back to Deep Ellum - this is a really good start! I noticed belgium waffel irons and was told by one of the other customers that the breakfast pizza was ""second to none"". I opted for a toasted bagel and a great cup of vanilla bean coffee. I plan on stopping by in the afternoons and using the free wi-fi and - perhaps having dinner too. This place has a warm friendly feel - a nice place just to hang out - pool tables and a full service bar too. A really great job guys!!!!
Pros: Absolute Thumbs UP
