Chicken fried steak
Jake V.

Waitress was amazing! Food was great. Loved this place! Super clean, cute cafe. Will be back!

Menu: appetizers, salads, and soups

Small town diner full of regulars, makes you feel like you're at that hometown diner in Adam Sandler's "Mr. Deeds" movie, just the greeting card walls are replaced with local history photos and farmy wall hangings. Food was affordable and to the point. All the basics are covered. Quick and kind service! The location adds some bonus points being right in the heart of town, walking distance of most things you're looking to see in red wing. I went alone as no one wanted to join my excessively early biking ventures, they have great hours for early birds - 5 am - 3 pm on weekdays, and 6 am - 2 pm on weekends. But I saw groups of 6 and they seem like the kind of place that would "make it work" for just about anything. If you're looking for a no-frills local breakfast spot in red wing, consider it found!

Super friendly staff, warm cozy diner cafe vibes. Food tastes great. I got the corned beef hash and my wife got the skillet. Coffee is good and warm and we will be coming back soon!

Phee Phee and Katie are the best serving duo bar none!! Food, service, atmosphere.

Phee Phee and Katie are the best serving duo bar none!! You not only get scrumptious food at Bev's, you get blessed with kind, gracious and over-the-top service. The Bev's Cafe experience is one that takes you back in time.

My husband and I were visiting from Texas and found this place for breakfast. The portion sizes were great, the food was delicious, and the waitress was an absolute peach! It has a very homey feeling to it. Definitely could tell there were regulars, but they made us feel like we fit right in!!! Made us seriously consider moving to the area!!!!!

Just another amazing experience (a little tight and hectic since it opened up again) but it's what you expect from a restaurant in a town like Red Wing! We enjoyed it, felt very cozy and home-like, as the patrons played with our kids and started conversations. It was pleasant and would return again the next time we visit the city.

Denver Omelette Sandwich
Lisa S.

We went for breakfast. Big meal for low cost in a diner setting. I would definitely return. My husband ordered the gritwurst with eggs. That was a fun adventurous meal for him but he would not order it again. I had the Denver (omelette) Sandwich. It was perfect... and also $5.25!!

It was ok. We visited Bev's for the first time. It appeared to be clean and the meals we ordered looked and tasted old fashioned home cooking. The wait staff was pleasant and took care of us. It was super cold in the restaurant. It looked like, if you sit on the right side it would be warmer. The air conditioning vents are on the left. Covid has things messed up. Each table is given one paper menu. I don't think they have sweetener because when I asked, I was given sugar. The omelets were smaller than I expected. The hash browns were huge but not crisp. The prices are higher and the servings are smaller than Perkins. The atmosphere was nice. And are waitress was super nice and very attentive. We're not sure if we'll be back.

This was an unplanned stop on a backroad road trip from Minneapolis back to Chicago. We left the twin cites early enough to make to to Red Wing MN by breakfast. Bev's was well-Yelp'ed and deservedly so. It's an old historic building in vibrant downtown Red Wing. I like the way breakfast was à La Carte instead of just a bunch of oversize portions. My girlfriend got the "Mike's Special Omelet" with a side of toast. I got the "Everything Omelet". Skipped the toast and instead we shared a side buttermilk pancakes, short stack. Everything was very good. I should have tried the Sturdiwheat Pancakes; I had no idea what they are and that Sturdiwheat is local Red Wing. Maybe if we're ever back, I will. The restaurant was crowded and the service was a bit slow. Lost them a star on what otherwise would have been a 5 star review. The place was very Christmas-y on the weekend before Thanksgiving.

My wife and I stopped here after viewing dozens of eagles at Coville Park, just outside of Red…read moreWing. The place we were going to go was closed, so we crossed the street to find the Red Wing Café. This is one of those places that you discover by happy accident and are thrilled that luck made it possible. It's also one of those places that I wished was in MY neighborhood in Minneapolis so I could be a regular. The place was warm and cozy, even in February. Although it was packed, we scored a table. It has all day breakfasts and my wife ordered the pecan Belgian waffle. I was more than amazed that it was served with a bottle of pure maple syrup from a place in nearby Wisconsin. Real maple syrup is usually an upcharge in most restaurants these days. It was all the crispy and gooey goodness that you could hope for. All of the breakfasts at the tables around us looked great, so I started to regret my choice of the hot turkey sandwich I ordered with fries (as a substitute for the mashed potatoes). My regret turned to joy because this was one of the best hot turkey sandwiches I've had, and believe me, I've had many! The turkey slices was thickly carved, juicy, and fresh. The gravy, which is usually the downfall, was absolutely wonderful. Not too salty and perfectly flavored. My mouth is watering as I'm typing this! The fries were hot and crispy. Even the coffee was great. I know where we are eating the next time we visit Red Wing.

I'm always fair in my reviews, but... WOW. I'm still laughing at how unbelievably awful this…read moreexperience was. We decided to stop in for a late lunch and try somewhere new. I ordered the French toast. It arrived barely warm, and after almost finishing the first slice... I found a hair. The other meal went like this: "I'll have the soup, salad, and bread." "What kind of soup?" we asked. "The soup of the day," the server replied. We looked at each other and thought, Okay... surprise soup. "So what are the bread choices?" (Thinking breadsticks, garlic toast, something...) "It's like toast." "Okay... wheat toast then." The meal arrived: Soup was cold and looked like Campbell's Chunky Soup. Salad was warm, consisting of iceberg lettuce and a quarter slice of tomato. Wheat toast was cold. Crackers were stale. Needless to say, neither of us finished our meals. I politely pointed out the hair to the server. Her response? "Oh... do you want me to have them make another one?" Ummm... no. Then came the bill: about $24. Nothing was taken off. No discount. No real apology until I mentioned paying full price for a meal with a hair in it. Then, to top it all off, they asked if we wanted a to-go box. For what,, the hair!! At that point, all we could do was laugh. It was honestly one of the most unbelievable dining experiences I've ever had.

The food was exceptionally delicious. Our party ordered two appetizers - the pretzel and cheese curds - and both were phenomenal. Two people ordered from the breakfast menu, two from the salads, and one from the sandwich menu. Every person was so happy with what they ordered, said the flavor exceeded their expectation, and there was something unique about their dish or especially well done - whether it was a dressing that they had never had before, a combination of flavors, or an egg being perfectly cooked. We were there to celebrate a couple's 60th wedding anniversary and they were treated to a complimentary dessert which was a pleasant surprise to them. They even re-enacted feeding each a piece of cake that they did 60 years at their wedding. Our server was excellent, attentive, and did not rush us. We spent over 2 hours enjoying one another's company over a memorable and delicious lunch. We are so appreciative to the staff and chefs at the Scarlet Kitchen for creating such a wonderful experience for us. It brought us all so much joy and have given us such great memories to look back upon.

It was a little warm in the sun, but otherwise great outdoor weather and provided entertainment for the kids to look at the train when it went past. Our server was pretty quick to come get our drink order and we also puts the kids order and appetizer in right away. Our specialty cocktail and mocktail drinks came out pretty quick and all were quite refreshing. For the appetizer we got the Brussels sprouts with the horseradish mustard dressing and they were a hit. We even saved the dressing to use for the fries and sandwiches we ordered for the main. The kids burgers came out shortly after the appetizer which was useful to keep them entertained. It was pretty much an adult portion size and a well cooked burger. The only issue was that it took a while longer for the adult food to come out, so the kids were all done eating by the time we got our food. We got the Scarlett Salmon, Cubano, wild Mahi, Swedish stew, and pot roast sandwich. The salmon had a nice crust to it, but unfortunately for me, that also meant it was pretty salty. The couscous, watermelon radish, and chimichurri that accompanied were all very tasty though and the chimichurri did have a good kick of spice to it. The Cubano had good flavor and the horseradish mustard was a great accompaniment. The pot roast sandwich had decent flavor but was a little dry. The Mahi was the more successful fish entree and the Swedish stew also got great reviews. For dessert we couldn't make a decision, so we got the dessert trio which was a triple chocolate fudge cake, orange blossom and raspberry cake, and passion fruit panna cotta. The chocolate cake was a little dry for me, the raspberry cake was moist with a nice summer flavor, and the Panna cotta was the standout. A perfect light option to end the meal, and it came in a pretty cup. Overall they did have decent food and portion sizes were pretty good given their higher prices. The highlights are the beautiful outdoor patio and the friendliness of the servers.
