I took a chance and drove a little further off the Interstate in Atmore AL. It was worth it. I love little local diners when I'm traveling for work. But only when they are good. Very nice place. read more

Lunch here a prior time was good and breakfast was too. Good service. I'll be back the next time I'm in Atmore. read more

Excellent bacon cheeseburger!!! They know to cook a burger!! Friendly servers who provided great service!!

This little restaurant is off a block the beaten path and definitely worth pulling in to. It has an old school feel as you walk in and warm southern hospitality from their staff. Omelets off the griddle we're second to none! My wife and I will make this stop on every trip through going forward!!! read more

While traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday, we came upon this cafe thru yelp. The food was very good! Pancakes were light and fluffy, bacon cooked perfectly crisp, the French toast got rave reviews with its cinnamon flavor. Staff was very pleasant. Clean restrooms too! read more

Just a little block building that served up a great breakfast for the wife and I. They were very attentive to my wife's allergies, plus a senior gentleman greeted us as we entered as well as opened the door for other guests! I call it a home town gem! read more

Went to Anchor Cafe for breakfast this morning. The wait staff was really friendly and the food was delicious. Decided to get the tomato gravy which is something I haven't had anywhere else. Glad we stopped in to this local spot. read more

This place is a hidden gem. We moved here about a year ago and kept forgetting to go try this place, when we finally did it did not disappoint. Menu is simple but definitely worth it. We've tried their breakfast and their lunch special and both were great. For breakfast they had blueberry pancakes with fresh blueberries picked from one of the owners house, delish!!! Lunch is a typical rotating menu of southern dishes. Staff is super friendly and their food is fresh and homemade. Will definitely recommend. read more

Excellent country cooking at an affordable price. Good portions, great service, fine sweet tea, and plenty of Southern hospitality. There's the daily specials and also a menu - something delicious for everyone. read more

Amazing food, great service I can not tell you how at home you will feel eating there. I felt like I was sitting down at grandmas table.

Bring cash. A classic example of some southern cooking. Service isn't fine dining, but it's great.

This was a great place for breakfast! Cute and eclectic in decor. Nice staff, clean facilities. For four people was under $20.

This place may just be one of Atmore's best hidden gems! We almost didn't drive by because the majority of the online reviews were several years old and I was sure it was closed. It is most definitely still open and it is THE place to grab breakfast in Atmore! They are only open for breakfast and lunch on Monday - Friday so you're out of luck on the weekends, but if you're in town during the week, you hit the jackpot. Their cheese grits taste just like the ones my Grandmother used to make and that is high praise indeed. They cooked the bacon perfectly (Hallelujah and Amen!) and their pancakes were super light and fluffy. Anchor Cafe has the perfect small town, down home feel and we will definitely be back! read more

I am traveling with my husband and 5 kids across country. We are always looking for the local flavor restaurants. This place was great. We had fried chicken, fried pork, mac n cheese, a cheeseburger and a fried chicken salad. The staff was super friendly with the southern charm. There is no part of the food that wasn't hand made or processed. Everything was fresh! It was an amazing deal for the amount of food we had. I will come back one day. Don't miss out on this gem read more

We searched for a non fast food lunch outside of the Casino and found this little cafe off the main strip. Simple breakfast and lunch options. Breakfast options were the expected ones. For lunch he had a "big cheeseburger with bacon" and fries and I had a patty melt. The fries and onion rings were both good and the fry oil was fresh. Service was friendly and prompt. Family owned and run. read more

We came in & the staff waited on two other tables that came in after us. One of the servers that passed right by our table was the owner, she walked by us & waited on a table that came in over 10 minutes after we did. She didn't knowledge us or anything. After a few more minutes we left, & NO one said anything to us on the way out. Shame on this poor service. read more

Great little place to eat! I was really wanting breakfast it was 10:30 and no Cracker Barrell in site ....found this on Yelp, the reviews were old so wasn't really sure if we should try it....and a little bit of a drive off the interstate but so glad we did! read more

My husband and I really enjoyed our meal here. I had eggs, bacon, hash browns, and whole wheat toast. It was hot and delicious. The bacon was a good quality thick bacon and I ordered it crisp. My husband had the club sandwich on wheat and it came with crinkle cut fries. Neither one of us left a bite of food in our plate! This is a locally owned family run business, so don't be in a huge hurry! Everyone was very sweet and friendly! read more

Don't waste your money or your time. The place wasn't clean. The food was cold, the macaroni and cheese was hard and had no cheese. The lady serving me the so called desert had on dirty clothes and must have been their dishwasher. Never the mind the lady who waited on me to begin with had her hair all in my food!! YUK!! no return for me. read more

A hidden busy neighborhood cafe in the middle of warehouses. The place was packed throughout the morning up to lunch and everybody seemed to know each other here. The food itself was pretty good, although I didn't really like the sides - the coleslaw was to vinegary and the broccoli rice casserole needs more cheese in it - the chicken fried steak with white gravy was solid though! You may have to walk a bit further during busy time since you have to find parking on the streets. Closes pretty early - around 2.30 or so. read more

Not impressed at all, unless you like shabby and a sloppy plate of over salted food that sits around all day. The place looks unkept and rundown also. read more

I really like this place! The food is really good. However, the hours are kind of weird, and the servers are not the friendliest. They have breakfast all day. It is pretty cheap. read more

I was soooo disappointed. Me and my family use to eat here quiet often when we visited from Atlanta. Couldn't believe it!! The place has really went down hill. There were no friendly waitress to greet us. The lady that took our order was not dressed to waitress that's for sure! Her shorts were way too short for her age, and smelled like she was still hung over from the night before and all that hair hanging down was not helping my appetite. Looking around the others didn't look to clean either the one serving the deserts had on a nasty apron and smelled of body odor. The food was not too bad although the potato salad had too many eggs. Just sooo disappointed not what I remember. read more

I love this place. It makes for the best breakfast date cafe around! They have wonderful food, prepared fresh upon ordering! My suggestion: tomoato gravy & biscuits with a side of Bacon! read more
