Awesome food, friendly staff .. and they make good coffee. Always clean inside . Fun building design. Good parking

We love Cubby Cafe. The food is always great, but I think it's the people that also make the difference. The staff is very friendly and they always take care of their customers. I don't think there is a brunch place around that compares. read more

Loved it! We came here with family that has been eating here for years. We all ordered breakfast. My wife and I shared the Corned Beef Hash Skillet. We asked for no peppers and that's how it came out. Chris was our server. She was great! My wife's aunt was with us and knows Chris. This is a new location for the Cubby Cafe. The old location burned down. The inside is spacious and clean, albeit noisy when full. We'll be back in the area next year and I look forward to eating here again. read more

Cubby Cafe - Corned Beef Hash Skillet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Illinois

First time at Cubby Cafe, not my last. I was in the area to have lunch with a buddy and he suggested Cubby Cafe. This place to me, is the quintessential small town restaurant. Busy, with locals. Nice atmosphere. Great food. Good portions. Had their Signature American Bomber. Was not disappointed. Would order again in a heartbeat. We all go to restaurants for the food. But atmosphere is important also. Staff was very friendly. Obviously knew my buddy. But there were obviously other locals/regulars in there and staff seemed just as friendly with them. Just a very comfortable feel to the place. read more

If you are hungry and want a great food for your money, highly recommend this breakfast joint. They are super quick and if you show up and have to wait, you won't wait for long. Great staff too! read more

Went there late this morning. Food is good, but portions are getting smaller. Often have to wait for a table. Today was pretty much asked to leave after our meal so another party could be seated. Thought that was rude! read more

This was my first time at the Cubby Cafe since their move to a stand-alone building. I'm glad to say that the food is as good, if not better than I remember it. We hadn't had breakfast and I was famished on our way back to IL from WI on a typical weekday afternoon. I don't remember the exact name of the dish, but it was hashbrowns mixed with bacon and sausage, covered in sausage gravy with an over-easy egg on top, just for good measure. Here's what made this mid-day breakfast memorable. The hashbrowns were really crispy. I love them like that. The bacon and sausage were plentiful, but not over the top and neither one was ridiculously salty. The gravy (of biscuits and gravy fame) was right on the money. It wasn't too thick or thin, had good seasoning and plenty of sausage chunks. In addition, the egg was just right over easy, and the side of pancakes rounded the entire meal out. On top of all that, the coffee was really good and served in the classic thick-walled diner coffee mug, which was great. I strongly recommend The Cubby Cafe for breakfast, any time of the day. We'll be back the next time we're in that neck of the woods. read more

(OPEN SINCE April 23') I have been wanting a place to open locally where it would compete with simple cafe in lake geneva. The cubby cafe has ALOT GOING FOR IT. Despite it being open for such a short time the quality is good. A few observations 1.FAST SERVICE. (They were never rude to me despite needing my table for a large party) 2. Clean and new. (Good ambience and VERY BUSY) 3.VERY nice staff and attentive without being pushy despite being really busy 4. The FOOD VERY GOOD...nothing out of the ordinary but cooked well and not overdone. 5. Right on the bike trail..LOVE THIS 6. Ample parking. Very nice that they are connected through the back to tryon grove road for an easy exit. 7. For warmer weather they have a small patio which is available for outdoor seating. (See point #5) I got a platter with scrambled eggs and corned beef hash as well sausage with orange juice.. This place is my new go to. Improvements?...add items as an add on like goat cheese and instead of toast have options like corn or flour tortillas. Also add almond or oatmilk as an alternative to cream. read more

My husband had the bomber burger. We had to share them because both of the meals were so good, sides of sweet potato fries and waffle. Fries were excellent as well. read more

We frequent the Cubby cafe weekly and just think the waitresses are the best. The food is great also.....only one complaint and lots of people say this....the cook does NOT pay attention to the orders on the hash brown potatoes...majority of the people ask for them to be browned and they constantly come out white and raw looking even though they are warm. Please try to accommodate your customers. Other wise it would have been a 5 star rating...... Thanks!!!! read more

Everything was great! Just like they were before, so glad they are back. Stop in for a wonderful breakfast or lunch, you won't regret it.

Tried this place for the first time Friday and it did not disappoint. It's a nice, bright and friendly atmosphere. Our waitress was super nice and attentive. I ordered the apple bread French toast and it was delish! Their coffee was really good too. read more

The food and the service were top notch. The portion sizes were fantastic'!! The only small critique I have is that because it is a smaller room, it is definitely louder than most restaurants. read more
