Customer Reviews
Great environment. Small family owned cafe kinda feel! Two Very sweet ladies running it this afternoon. We were passing through. Great food prices! Great food! They had coffee too 🙏🏻
Bottom line... I've never waited this long for food this underwhelming. The slowest service possible. It took 10-15 minutes just to get menus, and people that came after us were helped first. We had to ask for menus. It took another 10-15 minutes to take our order. We watched the gentleman server bring out food for other diners and every dish seemed to be wrong or served to the wrong person. The guy was flustered and couldn't get anything correct. He ran around, back and forth, but never really seemed to accomplish anything. Eventually, the female server came to get our orders. After 1 HOUR and 20 MINUTES of sitting at the table, our food came finally came out. It was under seasoned and mediocre at best. Not even hot... more like room temperature. This is definitely the result of limit
Hometown cooking, Decent Sunday buffet! TL:DR Don't expect to be overwhelmed by the quality, but there are definitely some items worth visiting for! Be prepared to pay a bit extra on buffet days. Details: Heard about a newer restaurant in Burwell, and ended up here after church on Sunday for their Sunday buffet. It was crowded, and there isn't a lot of seating inside, but you could tell everyone was enjoying themselves and the food. A larger selection than I expected, and several items were delicious. They had a chicken tortilla soup that was excellent, if a bit short on chicken. A cheesy beef and potato casserole was outstanding, and their fried and baked chicken were both decent, though not award winning by any means. Dessert wasn't anything to write home about, although my daughter
Passing through town and wanted to find a small town cafe. Parking was kind of weird (old drive inn?) Parked in the street. Not greeted when we came in. Waited a bit to get a menu. 1 waitress. 2 “specials” on the white board when we walked in. No price, just the specials description. My wife and I were going to each order the special and I asked how much it was… $13!!!! REALLY?! (One of the items was a tavern/sloppy joe sandwich with a side). As others have said, food was underwhelming.. Waitress was nice. Old small town decor. Prices were pretty ridiculous for lunch on a weekday. Won’t be stopping again.
Very cozy place. I had the brisket sandwich with Italian pasta salad and Iced tea, served in a Mason jar. Large portions for the price! If I ever come through town again, I'll definitely be stopping by. The cook and the waitress were very friendly and genuinely happy to have me there. I think they will remember the hornet guy.
