Centerville Cafe - Clean plates equals Great food. Saturday's the Chicken Fried Steak is $7.99 CAN'T BEAT THAT! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Centralia, Washington

Great spot, all the right flavors, busting sounds and perfect foods. Great spot on a Sunday funday afternoon!!!

This restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside; it had a diner feel to it, to me. I was VERY impressed with how tasty their ham was. My dad had a ham steak and some eggs, toast, and hash browns. He loved his and I loved mine. I had diced ham in my eggs smothered with cheese, hashbrowns, and also sourdough toast. Yum! I usually don't get hashbrowns because they are usually greasy. These hashbrowns were not greasy at all. They were really delicious. The waiter was super friendly and kept checking on us to see how everything was going, but not too much. Overall, everything was really perfect. The bill wasn't even very much. Maybe $22 for two big breakfasts and two coffees. Very reasonable for breakfasts that are not fast food. VERY happy with my experience. DEFINITELY recommend! Thanks. read more

Centerville Cafe - Scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy and freshly brewed coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Centralia, Washington

Busy little diner. We were there on a Sunday and they were short handed but still hustling. I had bacon and eggs. Boyfriend has a stack of pancakes. Bacon and eggs were good, egg was done correctly, five slices of bacon. Pancakes were BIG. My giant boyfriend couldn't finish the whole stack which is rare. We'll go back to this place. read more

Good food at a good price and such friendly service. It's a really cute retro atmosphere and the kind of place that just gives you that warm fuzzy feeling when you're there. I wish they were open longer though because I'd love to go for dinner. read more

Awesome place and the food was phenomenal. Everyone was very happy with the food they ordered

A little gem in the heart of old town Centralia! This no frills diner is where some of the best home cooked, comfort food is made. The staff is always friendly. I think I have had a good conversation with everyone in the place including the cooks and the dishwasher. I tend to go in when it is slower as to not slow down anyone's meal. Yet on busy days when I have been there, the conversation has not slowed down that kitchen one bit! Papers are always on hand up front and kids are always welcome. Half the prices of their competitors across the street. I also think better portions and taste as well. read more

Has a great breakfast here. What I loved is that they offer a 4 oz chicken fried steak, perfect for a smaller appetite. My bf was undecided between the French toast and apple crepes. Ended up getting both and loved them. We will definitely be back. read more

Nothing fancy, just good food at a cheap price. Always friendly service. I appreciate an old school downtown breakfast diner.

OMG, great vibe and delicious food. We got the corn beef and hash (so amazing), the flat iron steak was so tender and juicy it melts in your mouth. The breakfast sausages are meaty, plump and juicy. The pancakes are huge. The staff is so warm and friendly, you feel like you're eating with family. We cannot wait to return to this adorable downtown and fabulous cafe! read more

I used to go there but they kept opening front door letting in auto exhaust and cold air I had to move several times when eating there finally gave up and no go elsewhere read more

Wow!!! This place is amazing! Small town atmosphere but big city flavor! Best crepes ever! Service was phenomenal! The lady was busy busy busy! My coffee stayed full my breakfasts is delicious! Not to mention the prices!!! I vote yes!!! read more

The wife and I visited the Centerville Cafe for breakfast and came away impressed. All of the food we ordered was very good. My wife asked that her hash browns be extra crispy and they came out perfect and much crispier than mine. The coffee is also good as well. Service was excellent. Their prices are very low and their special was priced even better. For a cheap place for good breakfast and coffee, this is the best. read more

Centerville is a cite place for breakfast. Almost vintage type soda jerk decor reminiscence of the 60's. Larry had traditional two beggs, bacon, hash browns and toast. They cooked the hashbrowns light the way he likes them. I had apple crepes. They were done pretty well. Crepes kind of perfectly Apple not too sweet just the right amount of whip cream. Coffee was great. Kind of what you expect for a small town diner. Definitely nice place to stop for a quick breakfast. read more

This is the BEST breakfast place. Don't go to Oly Club across the street! You will be missing out big time. Prices are very reasonable and all the locals go here. This is the BEST place for a GREAT breakfast. I promise. :) I usually get the ham slice, scrambled eggs, hash browns (not greasy at all) and toast. Everything is spot on and delicious and not expensive. This is a family business and the QUALITY shows. Give this place a try. You will not regret it. :) read more

A-OK is perfect for this place. Its your typical diner food with your typical diner patrons. The only thing not typical was the super friendly staff. Usually diners attract staff for life. People that hate their job. The two ladies that helped me were great. The kitchen was a little slow but that's to be expected at a place like this. They have one guy prepping cooking and apparently doing dishes. You can see right into the kitchen from the bar. This place obviously has a lot of regulars. Since they seem to all know each other. Overall if you are passing through town and looking for an old fashion american diner meal this is your place! read more

Very good breakfast. Taco omelette was excellent. Chicken peppers onions and good amount of cheese. Eggs with sausage patties and hash browns was good but I'm sure the patties were frozen and not homemade but good nonetheless. Sourdough toast was good and crunchy. Server was friendly and pleasant. Nice clean restaurant. Would definitely eat here again. read more

Second time I have visited this cafe. They have a great breakfast selection. I got the chicken fried steak today and I am excited to eat it. The atmosphere is very nice, the staff is so helpful. It's a small quiet place that makes great food for a great price! I will for sure come back. read more

A great hometown diner! Hidden gem! The wait staff is attentive and very friendly! The best thing I noticed is that the waiter knew everyone's name! He was sweet and was on top of it! I wish we could go every Saturday to be greeted with such great service! Not to mention the awesome chicken fries steak deal is a no brainer! Real eggs no substitutes! (I only give 4 stars because I have been once and only for breakfast--but this place was amazing first time around!) the bathrooms were clean and so was the atmosphere it's not an overly packed with nonsense on the wall! Just local pictures of what the town used to look like and typical diner style interior. You can tell their main focus is on the customers, good/prompt service, and cleanliness. Your coffee cup will never be empty they're so attentive! And this was with just one waiter and a full house! AMAZING! read more

LOVE this place! Best EVERYTHING! Biscuits and gravy are a must because the biscuits are made from scratch and to die for! They are also huge, so I myself just get a half order. Country fried steak is also delicious and we never miss out on it on Saturdays! Staff is gracious, funny, warm, and inviting! Do not miss this place! read more

So... It's an experience. It's a small town diner. It's just ok, though, nothing special. My husband had the corned beef hash, definitely canned. I had chicken fried steak and it was fine. Good gravy. Boring hash browns. I think it's fun because it's a locals place. However, I wouldn't go back. read more

If you want an amazing breakfast with happy, friendly, welcoming atmosphere...this is it! Food is absolutely delicious. Country fried steak is HIGHLY recommended! 11oz of course :) read more

Excellent place to get a bite to eat. Recommended in the morning especially! Centerville has a hometown feel to it. The staff are very friendly and make you feel like you are visiting with friends. The food is also excellent. Every time I have breakfast here it is exactly what I imagine it to be via the menu. Service is always quick and is refreshingly personal compared to other establishments in the area! In all, a great place to for regulars and tourists alike. Word of caution: it can be hard to get a table at some points during the day because it is so popular! read more

Cheese omelet with hash browns and toast so good and worth it. Definitely come here if you get a chance. read more

Hmm, These Yelp reviews kinda steered us wrong. I think if you know what to expect, then it's better than the fairytale you paint in your head after reading these reviews. The service was great. Our server was nice enough and very accommodating when we asked for an extra bowl, napkins, etc. The food is cheap and diner-ish. Smaller portions and less quality ingredients are probably why the prices are pretty low. The coffee was watered down. The food just looked depressing and it kinda tasted that way, too. Everyone in the restaurant was over 65. We drove here for breakfast to take a break from GWL and I kinda wish we just went to Burger Claim for breakfast since it was much closer. read more

My favorite place in town. The food is great, but it's the people that make Centerville awesome. Locally owned and it shows. Coming in for breakfast here kind of feels like coming home for the holidays. There is nowhere I would rather go for breakfast. read more

Ate here today for the first time after staying at the Olympic Club hotel right across the street. We had absolutely amazing kind service and it was great to see a home style small town cafe where everyone at the door where regulars and they knew them by their first name. We had a party of five and were seated right away at a great spot by the window. Food came out timely, I had the breakfast sandwich and it was fabulous, and everyone else in my party had good things to say about their food as well. Our servers name was George and he was lovely. Overall an absolutely amazing experience if we're ever in this part of town again we will absolutely be back. read more

Very relaxed environment. A place where locals come to eat and catch up on the latest. A much older crowd here. The service is the best and the food is great. If you're visiting or passing through and looking to eat local, check this place out. read more

Food is great. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Atmosphere leave a lot to be desired in this hole-in-the-wall cafe.

Nice little breakfast and lunch restaurant in downtown Centralia. The place was clean, friendly, and prices appropriately. The wait staff was great and our coffee cups were never empty. The plates were full and the presentation was perfect. We will be sure to come back again! read more

This is a great little old school cafe. They have a lunch counter and great service! Every time we have been there the food was amazing!
