It feels like you somehow wandered into a slightly spooky Disney bayou attraction that also happens to serve brunch. Decorated to the nines and immersive, it is both a meal and an experience. We went for an early Sunday breakfast and were seated quickly. By the time we left around 9 there were still a handful of open tables, but I would guess reservations are smart from 9:30 on. I started with a cortado made with Evan's Brothers beans. They also offer a chicory blend if that is your thing. Our waitress was attentive, answered all of our questions, and was great about a few modifications we asked for. They do have some gluten free and vegetarian options, though not a huge amount of gluten free. We started with the beignets and they were excellent. Perfect portion for two with a couple topping options. I would go back just for those. I ordered their take on eggs Benedict and my husband had the classic breakfast plate. Both were really flavorful, but the seasoned potatoes were a standout. Portions are generous, we ended up getting two more portions out of the leftovers. Overall, a really fun and memorable brunch spot. I am looking forward to going back for one of the events when they have live music.

When my family and I were first looking to relocate to north Idaho, our real estate agent…read morerecommended this place rather emphatically. It has since become a semi regular place for us when we're looking for breakfast or lunch of the sort that ends up being just about the only meal we'll eat that day. I can't recommend it from experience, but Green Eggs & Ham is what really put Hoot Owl on the map. But for my money, it doesn't get much better than their Ranch Burger. Breakfast or lunch, that's my go to along with an endless cup of coffee and tall glass of ice water. Whoever decided to mix ranch dressing and barbecue sauce deserves and Nobel effing Peace Prize. My wife has tried a number of their omelette and scramble offerings and never been disappointed. And then there's the cinnamon rolls. Brace yourself because it's literally the size of your face. Dripping in frosting and served with roughly half a cube of whipped butter, the cinnamon roll is an event unto itself, and definitely a prime item for sharing with the table. The atmosphere is very cozy and...Rural. It feels like something out of a period film; very down to earth and eclectic with lots of owl knickknacks all over the place. If you've a bad back or bad posture, I'd recommend a table over a booth as the booths are a little short in the seat and very straight backed. Parking is usually not bad, even when they're busy (which is often), but it's in a dirt lot that shares its real estate with a drive through coffee shack. Lots of potholes at the entrance, so depending upon your vehicle, get ready to slalom a bit. The restaurant offers free WiFi to guests and is relatively kid friendly with plenty of high chairs, decks of cards at the table, etc. Service has always been friendly and expedient. They recently started tacking on a 3% surcharge for card transactions, but if you pay cash you get a discount...Of 3%. Heh. Anyway, if you're in the area and you want a big meal at a decent price, this place is fantastic. Forgot to mention prices, but a half pound specialty burger with fries ranges $13-$16, and similar pricing on other entree menu items. Get you some.

Absolutely beautiful day [Friday morning], today and my Wife and I decided a quick drive to…read moreCocolalla and have a bite to eat; which meant "The View Cafe". Ever since, moving here to 'The Panhandle', we've enjoyed stopping by, for what's always, an excellent meal - And this time they didn't fail [breakfast, today]. The food is always fresh - nicely prepared - generous proportions [either breakfast or lunch] - tasty... Simply, put GOOD fare. The Staff is always pleasant - nice - accommodating - AND attentive. Today's fare [for me] over easy eggs, 'lil pigs, country-fries, and sourdough [dark]. My Wife's choice traditional eggs-benedict, with country-fries - And as always excellent. All topped off with ice water and good coffee. One thing we noticed [from our last visit], is they've added afew more tables, increasing their seating capacity. The Restaurant and bathrooms is always neat - clean - ordered... In times coming here, either with friends [in from outta-towne], or Family, we've never been disappointed with "The View". UNDERSTANDING, is we've learned, on Sunday's it will nearly always, always be busy [as with so many places, here in No. Idaho], and also during the 'tourist-season', it can get abit hectic here, too. And 'occasionally', we've had to wait abit, for a table during these times - But, no biggy in my book... It is worth the wait. - Thank you "The View", for another nice meal. Ed & Diane

Abhorrent and rude service. Worst I've experienced in a long time. Here's why (and sounds like this…read moreis pretty common and consistent of late): - Gave our table away even though we called ahead and were assured that there would be room for our party - Manager unapologetically told us to "just wait outside" even though it was very cold and we have young children in our party - As they were getting our table together, manager loudly explained to a departing guest "sorry, but THEY refuse to move" referencing the fact that we were waiting in the foyer (and we had clearly moved to the side to make sure they could get out. - When we explained to the manager that what she was was very rude she was unapologetic and indignant, saying "well you're being a fire hazard" We decided to leave without eating. Worst service. Stay away unless you'd like to be treated as if they're doing you a favor for serving you.
