We happened upon this gem on our travels today. So glad we did! Food was wonderful...Aunt Bea and her granddaughter were wonderful...just such a sweet, old style diner experience. Highly recommend!

Tried Aunt Beas for the 1st time tonight and I am kicking myself for not trying it sooner! Got carryout: the meatloaf dinner with mashed taters, gravy and Mac n cheese. My better half got the bacon cheeseburger and fries. He said it was one of the best burgers he's had in a long time! My meatloaf was tasty and the Mac n cheese was great! Mashed taters n gravy were fantastic. Very reasonably priced too! The owner was the only one working and she was so sweet. We will definitely be eating from here again!!!

It isn’t everyday that you get to eat at an establish that has been around for 31 years. Aunt Bea did the cooking and I can’t help but think of grandma’s cooking. I hope you get to enjoy it before she hangs up the name.

Down home setting. Real home cooking. Biscuits and gravy were as authentic as you're going to find in the Midwest. I'll definitely remember this place for next time.

This Cafe was AMAZING! I am from the south and grew up on southern cuisine! Aunt Bea outdoes herself! Yeah felt like I was back home! We will be returning and let me tell you what…. That sweet tea🤤 this southern gal loved the collards and enjoyed washing them down with some real sweet tea! Everything was authentic and so delicious! Felt like I was back in my grandmama’s kitchen! A must go to for soul food! Cause this hit my soul! Amen! And Amen!
