Just ordered from Coolidge Cafe and it was delicious.  This cafe will definitely be a hit in my family

The food was delivered fast. The order was prepared perfectly. We received exactly what we ordered and nothing was wrong

Catfish , grits and eggs

Very huge portions, warm friendly inviting atmosphere. It can busy extremely busy depending the time you visit. The staff is very polite. You can tell the customers are loyal repeat patrons. Pricing is normal but you get more for your money. Omelettes are gigantic as everything is....it all looks good. Taste does very a little depending on what you get. They went through a recent remodel, everything looks great.

My husband wasn't excited about trying this new spot out, it seemed a bit rough from the outside and looked a bit old and and dated inside as well. Zina is waiting on us. Tables are blocked off for social distancing. They have a 60% for their health violations. Zina hasn't come to our table yet, she might be doing the register too. No one has come for over 3 minutes at all, what's up that? She came a few seconds later, apologized for coming to our table late. Asked if we were ready. Ordered a vegetarian omelet with cheddar and hash browns and a side of rye. The bread options are white, wheat and rye here. I wanted a biscuit sandwich with eggs, fried well, cheddar cheese, turkey sausage and turkey bacon, well done and a side of hash browns well done with green peppers and onions. The biscuit was made to order and looked and tasted decent. The turkey sausage were links and there were two nicely crispy turkey bacon strips too. The biscuit was okay, a bit dry, but decent. The hash browns were perfectly crispy, not burned, just the way I like them. The food was out within minutes, it seemed. Food service is quite quick here. The veggie omelet was average, per my husband, the hash browns were average as well. They do use canned mushrooms for their veggie omelet, not fresh, as they had the look and rubbery feel of canned mushrooms. The line for carry out gets busy, then again it's lunchtime now. There are 8 people waiting for their food in line and now we are waiting again for our bill. All the waitstaff are focused on orders and pickups now. Food is waiting to be taken to guests, but there's no one to take it out yet. I finally had to go up to the counter and wait for Zina to hand me the bill and then I had to wait in line again to cash out. One couple left after they ordered their food and nothing was coming out. That food was still waiting to be taken out after I cashed out. I would be livid if that was my food I saw just sitting there getting cold. The service was unbelievably slow and frustrating today. It felt like I had to keep asking for someone to pay attention to us at all. The only plus was they did a good job of crisping up my hash browns today.

Greek Salad

We stopped in with our family relative who just wanted a simple diner experience. Coolidge Cafe is more than that! The recent remodeling makes this clean, cool and airy interior even more inviting. Though a large screen TVs are powered, they're muted for easy conversation. Comfortable booth and table seating is available. Did I mention how pleasant everyone was? From the hostess at the register who welcomed us, to the attentive server and her assistant who bussed our meal - smiled, spoke with kindness, and made every patron feel seen. We ordered breakfast items, and I had a Greek Salad. Wow!! Portions are large. The salad was fresh and beautifully plated. The tasty dressing was placed in covered containers on the side. The grilled pita bread was warm, crispy and tasted lightly-seasoned delicious. We will return. We will bring out of towners. Kudos to the Chef, the wonderful staff and the Management.

I had no idea I'd have such a fabulous breakfast at this café. I had two huge pieces of catfish with grits, scrambled eggs, and toast. My friend's He-Man breakfast was plentiful also with bacon, sausage, ham, two eggs, grits, and toast. Both of us enjoyed our meal and agreed that we had to return.

Dining in and delivery has proved to be delicious, quaint and quality with staff and menu. Fresh…read morejuices are always a healthy, welcomed option for someone that doesn't drink, "Pop"... hehe Everything I've had has kept my interests and I'll keep coming back for more. Well done, OWL be seeing you!

This place was Wow!!!! We have been wanting to try this place for so long, but it never worked out…read moreuntil this weekend, and yes, we will be back with the rest of the fam! The people working here were so friendly and personable with literally everyone that walked in the door. The service was top notch. It is also the most adorable place giving vibes of Lamy's food counter at Henry Ford Museum. I loved all of the options on the menu and it was so hard just picking a couple items to try. We had chicken tacos. They were so good and so fresh, I loved the sauce on top. Honestly, I am not sure if it was cheese or a sour cream type mixture, but it was creamy and flavorful. I also had the torta which was absolutely incredible. It had the same chicken as the taco. The chicken was slow cooked or stewed and shredded and was so flavorful, like a homecooked chef's kiss. The bread was fresh. I loved the sauce poured over it, making it a dipped and soaked sandwich. The carrots and cilantro, sliced radishes and sliced fresh jalapenos added a level of crunch, freshness and deeper flavor profile. I would want to get this every time. We also tried their delicious "curly" fries, which were like julienned shoestring fries fired fresh. It seemed like every dish was made fresh and right in front of you. So worth it, plus the prices are great. I would love to try their fried chicken plate, their breakfast sandwiches, and their other desserts. We talked to the man behind the counter who seemed like maybe a manager. He gave us their famous chocolate chip cookie to try. It was fresh baked and delicious. I would love to take home more of those. It looked so simple but was better than many bakeries specializing in cookies alone. He also gave us an second order of fries to take home with my leftovers, just top notch kindness and service. This man told us that OWL owns other restaurants and we would probably like them. I am open to trying more of their group but I do want to return here. This is one of those diners you would find being profiled for best kept secret or gourmet home cooked foods under the guise of fast food.
