Front Street Cafe

This little gem in downtown Pemberville is everything you hope a true from-scratch kitchen will be. You can taste the difference in every bite; from the freshly baked breads to the farm-fresh eggs and locally sourced meats. They even fry in beef tallow, which says so much about their commitment to quality and using real, natural ingredients. The veggies and microgreens were incredibly fresh and flavorful. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, which made the whole experience even better. The dining room is small and cozy, tucked inside a charming old brick building that adds so much character. It feels welcoming and intentional, the kind of place you want to come back to again and again. Joe nailed the cook on everything. Burger was a perfect medium all the way through. Sou

Stopped in with a longtime friend while my car was in the shop, and I’m so glad we finally made it in. I’ve known Brent for years but this was my first time visiting, and now I see why everyone raves about this place! The food was incredible—my eggs, bacon, and hash browns were cooked perfectly. I couldn’t resist grabbing a pecan cinnamon roll to go since I was too full to eat it there. Even a few hours later, it was still amazing—you can tell it’s made fresh in-house. My friend had the biscuits and gravy and said they were the best ever. Joe was so friendly and knowledgeable, and he shared that the biscuits and gravy are homemade right there. It really shows. Great food, great people, and such a welcoming spot. Brent and the whole team has built something special here. Can’t wait to com

I’ve stopped in a couple of times and each time, I am so impressed with the service and quality of their food. Being a scratch kitchen and using real ingredients, you can taste and feel the difference. Kailey, who always has a smile on her face made sure everyone was well taken care of. I was able to try their Prime Rib feature they had and it was so delicious. A perfect medium rare and the flavor of just salt and pepper really let the flavor of the beef shine. Don’t sleep on the garlic mashed potatoes either because they were creamy and just enough real garlic flavor. Definitely worth stopping in, trust me!

Was quite busy. Had to sit at the bar but shortly after we were able to move to a table. I only gave 4 for the atmosphere because we couldn’t see into the kitchen, which I don’t like. Otherwise it was a pleasant atmosphere. We were given water as soon as we sat down which was a very nice, old fashioned gesture. My only complaint was the dishwasher must have etched the glasses and no ice was offered. Shortly after being seated at the table, another nice amenity. We given little toasts with delicious homemade jam. Finished off with our delicious meal. Probably should have given 4.5 stars but wasn’t sure how to do that. Good luck with your future.
