Good food always a crowded place. Always think if the place is full must be good food. Always a good place for breakfast. That's for sure.

Downtowner Cafe - B.E.L.T. Sandwich - Cafes Near Me - Atlantic, Iowa

Walked into the Downtowner around 8am on Saturday and the place was filled, which after talking to the waitress was normal. I just needed to put in an order to go for my mom and I before she put me to work at her office, helping her organize. She sent me on a mission for snapple diet peach tea (from the grocery store) and breakfast from here. She told me she wanted the omelette with gravy on it. So with my mission started I grabbed the tea from hyvee then headed to the downtowner. So the downtowner is on chesnut, which is like Atlantics main street area. Its cute, chic, and has the old buildings all along the street. It was easy to find parking, most everything on chestnut is closed at 8am. So it was easy to tell where the downtowner was if you didnt know where to find it. The downtowner is on the main floor of an apartment building. This apartment building looks like a 1920s hotel. The building has been taken care of and still looks like it has all of the accents. Right in the doorway of the downtowner is their daily special, and their coffee bean rug. A waitress came right up to me and asked what I would like. I told her I needed a minute though. I had never been there before but my mom had. It took me all of 4 minutes to decide and the waitress was right there to take my order. She said it would be about 15 minutes because the hashbrowns take longer. My mom wanted the downtowner omelette and I ordered the vegetatarian omelette. Both come with a side of hashbrowns and toast. We both got cheese on our hashbrowns. I told her I would wait outside the door since it was busy and there was a bench that looks like it was a church pew at one time. It took exactly 15 minutes to cook and put everything together and the waitress brought it right out to me. I paid and the total was around $18 so worth it and very comparable to Palmers breakfast on Ingersoll. The waitress even added jelly packets to the order which I was grateful for since I forgot to grab them from a table on my way out. My only dislike is that they buttered both sets of toast after they had cooled down so the butter did not really melt on it. The downtowner is also one of the few places in town that caters. If you want good food. Order from here for catering. The service staff is great, friendly, and on time. My mom has had the downtowner and hyvee both cater, and the downtowner won hands down, and I dont just mean for taste or quality of food read more

Had a great breakfast hash browns were perfect great place to bring family and friends.

Always friendly service, I love their coffee and my husband and I both drink enough of it to know what's good. Very tasty dinner specials daily and the menu selection is good for a diner. I love their eggs Benedict it is my go to for breakfast and theirs is the best. Amazing pies if you can save room for dessert and they tell me they are made there and the meringue is amazing on them so I'm not surprised. All in all it is a great little diner with friendly service and excellent food. if your lucky to catch the owner she is a great little breath of fresh air and has something to be proud of. Yum is the best compliment there is! read more

Wonderful staff! Good food! We love the location inside the Whitney, and we eat here for breakfast and lunch. Delightful!

I wasn't a big fan of the food. The hash browns tasted like whatever they we're cooked on, same with the bacon. The coffee tastes like it's brewed with stagnant hose water. The waitress was friendly, but things definitely move at a small town pace here. Not my favorite breakfast experience. read more

In town to visit family. Trying to stay away from fast food places. Looking for something simple and this fit the bill. Less than $10 per person and breakfast included coffee and refills. Would absolutely visit again. read more
