★★★★★ 5.0 Nate Rock · Dec 2025

Stopped in here after seeing the signs on the freeway. My typical go-to when drinking from the twin cities to Duluth was Tobies. I decided to stop in to the Whistle Stop Cafe to try it out and wasn’t disappointed. Pretty standard fare, and I ordered the All Meat Omelette Dwayne gets a 1 star!

I was excited to try this place especially after seeing they had hot beef sandwiches. The potatoes tasted like they were basically boiled potatoes that had been mashed...no butter, no milk, nothing...the beef was dry. My daughter had a spicy buffalo chicken wrap, she said her school makes them better. My husband enjoyed his chicken fried steak, my other daughter liked her pancakes.

There was so much on the menu I wanted to try at Whistle Stop Cafe. Save room for desserts- the pies looked great. I ordered the BLT with curly fries. The bacon was smoky and had a lot of flavor. Friendly staff! The only negative was that there was something wrong with the AC but I got my food to go so it didn’t impact me.

Great breakfast! My wife and I both had the a.m. Trainwreck and would recommend it. Waitress was efficient and courteous. She took a minute to chat with us, which is always nice. Kitchen was very fast and food was excellent!

Stopped in on our way to Duluth for breakfast. Prices are reasonable, the All Meat Omelette was good but nothing special. The atmosphere was small town cafe just as you would expect. Jean our server was attentive and polite.
