Looked like some sort of tiny gas station soy Pattie and a regular old Walmart bun, not even a warm or grilled bun. This thing shouldn't have been more than $3.00. I get they aren't a burger place but it's definitely the worst I've had from a mom and pop home style restaurant. Pie was amazing as usual otherwise they'd have gotten 1 star. They've got to get rid of the cheap burger meat though. That was awful. If I had more time I would've complained but I had to get back to work.

I tried the quiche which had great flavor, although it was a bit chewy. The chicken salad croissant trio hit the spot for a light lunch. I decided to make it a true sampler by trying one of each of the three flavors of chicken salad. The Waldorf chicken salad was my favorite and I'd probably have that again with a cup of soup since I didn't get to try any this visit. The ambiance and the server were the real stars of my visit to Bloom Cafe. I'd come back to celebrate a special occasion any time.

This place!! What to say... I've been driving by it for years. So, we had to stop today. We were…read morejust out for a fun drive to see fall leaves, but I can't lie, my pet name for wifey is Bonny and we just had to make a day date with this place being the center of it. When we first drove up, it was almost shocking, in the best way! It was incredibly crowded! It was a Saturday, early in the day, but it was still, for such a small building, bustling with peeps! Also, it was in the middle of a construction zone, but was still crowded. This gave us high hopes. We also discovered it was one of five, so, they have expanded into a small chain. Things were looking promising. Cute little establishment. Much bigger inside than it looked. It wasn't overly crowded inside, though, even with all the cars parked outside. The Bonnie Cafe is famous (locally, anyway) for their buffets. We were pleased to go, BUT, the breakfast buffet ended at 10:30! That's a warning, if you want breakfast, be early. We were not. So, we did the lunch buffet. The salad part of the buffet was standard. It was good. Nothing unexpected, so that's what you want in a buffet. *Wifey here - actually my salad was quite delicious. And everything was very fresh and it had some extras like pickled onions and peppers and shredded, roasted chicken that you do not usually see on a standard salad bar. The meal part of the buffet was really tasty. There were bbq ribs! On a buffet!!! As well as fried shrimp! Not jumbo, but not the small ones. The corn COULD HAVE used a bit more pepper, but it was good, nonetheless. The green beans were just ok, as they were a bit over cooked for me (not uncommon for a buffet). The beans had diced ham, and they were very good, also. The meatloaf was very nice (even though I thought there was a bit too much ketchup) but I definitely do not fancy ketchup! *Wifey here - I do not usually eat meat loaf but I tried a piece and it was quite good. Don't let Mr. Ketchup Hater Pants scare you off! The corn was also good and pepper could be added at the table - which I did aplenty because I have an unhealthy love of pepper people just don't understand. Aaahemmm, back to the regularly scheduled review: Dessert was (for me) chocolate cake with a coconut crème icing. It was good. They had an ice cream machine with chocolate, vanilla AND twist, so that's a big winner! *Wifey again - dessert was part of the buffet and the cake slices all looked great! I had banana - yum! Honey loves ice cream so he was like a kid in a candy store (or ice cream store, I guess) ice cream always makes him happy. I was way too full for that. *Wifey's overall review - great little place. Above average buffet foods. All of their foods really seem to be lovingly prepared by a cute little grandma. It definitely draws a crowd and was well worth the drive! We will have to hit the breakfast buffet next time. Who knows, maybe tomorrow. It's only two hours away. Grumpy Old Guy's final verdict: It was a long time getting here, but it was well worth it. It's pretty obvious that this place cares about the food and the customers. And, PS, the staff were very warm and friendly, too! We got to enjoy being served by Tonya, she was delightful!
