The yoke was broken as requested and cooked perfectly. Bacon was crunchy. I was happy. Another, at our table ordered Hoover Gravy on their homemade biscuits. The biscuit was huge and beautiful. The gravy was cold. A little disappointing, but would order again asking the waitress to be sure the gravy was hot. It's a great, locally owned meeting spot. I'll be back.

I was in Lincolnton earlier this week because Bean Brothers across the street had road salt and I needed to get the ice off of my driveway. Picked up a 50 lb bag and another later on in the week. Each time I ate across the street at Lincoln Cafe and each time I had the Country Breakfast. Each time was closer to noon but the serve Breakfast all day. Place was very busy, but service was great and efficient, and they kept the restaurant moving. A County Breakfast or at least for me was 2 eggs, Pork Chop, they have other options as well), Hashbrown and Biscuit. Ordered Black Coffee and it was nice and fresh and no hint of being burned. A bit out of the way but still only like a mile from the Court House Square. Next time I'm going to explore the menu more and try some other items. I would have no problem recommending this place to anyone looking for a great way to start the day.

It's a favorite of the locals and the lunch menu runs heavy on Dogs and Burgers. It's a local favorite with a good lunchtime crowd and it appears to be a favorite with the Firefighters. I went a long time ago when I was active in politics because we had some functions at the Court House and it was just a short walk over but that was something like 40 years ago. A review by a fellow Yelper, Sam J. reminded me of this place so I decided to give them a try. Their hours are limited from 5am till 2 pm and not open on the weekend. With this in mind, tried on two occasions to hit this window only to find them closed both times. The first was a Monday and there was a big funeral in town with a massive Funeral Courtage with most of the Fire Department Equipment in the Courtage. Someone suggested they were closed for this. The following was the next week on a Friday and closed again. Did find that evening that they had a Facebook page and they had posted that they were going to be closed that day. I never refer to Facebook when I am looking for Restaurant Hours or Menu. Bottom line is consider calling first like I did on Wednesday. Walked in and got in line to order at the counter. Took a few minutes but I ordered the #2 Combo with is two dogs all the way (minus Coleslaw - in NC, coleslaw goes on everything) a bag of Chips and choice of drinks which in my case was a 7-UP. Gave me a cup of ice, my 7-Up and bag of chips plus a numbered tent for my table. Found a table and sat down and waited. Took a while but eventually my number was called, and I went back to the Counter to pick up my lunch which was in a Brown Bag. Went to back to my table and proceeded to lunch. The two dogs were excellent with generous amounts of delicious Chile but a bit on the dry side. Copious amounts on Onions as well. The Dogs themselves were some of the best I have had. Nice and plump with great snap and flavor. In other words, the Dogs were great and at $3.25 for the Combo, price cannot be beat. Service is good but since everything is made to order, not instantious so you have to be patient. It is worth the wait however. Ambience is casual and it's more of a hole in the wall but often those are the hidden gems with great food and prices. That's the reason they have been here since 1957.

( I said hour not 15 minutes, I'm not an ass... ok I am, but not this time). Before closing. The staff were happy, attentive, and actually glad we came in. Felt like they were the owners. They may have been, I don't know the owners. ( unlike every other ass..) We had our puppy ( she is an ass) so we sat outside and the woman behind the bar kept coming out to make sure we were taken care of. The food was well seasoned, well cooked, and the food we took to go was cooked perfectly! My only complaint is the sweet potato fries that we ate as an appetizer were under cooked. I know, I'm just being picky to make this a balanced review. Plus the cherry cider was so good my wife had to drive us home. Well done!!! 5 stars. We will be back!

Two things were recommended the western burger or something and the mushroom Swiss. Being a mushroom Swiss fan I opted for it. The combo with two sides and the burger was like almost $14 and though I thought it included a drink it did not and my bill came to like $18.40 after tax or something. Real talk the fries were warm but not hot or fresh, the onion rings were very over cooked in my opinion (no onion at all the entire thing was crispy) and the burger was so so definitely not best in Denver as claimed. Overall I'm kind of disappointed to spend almost $20 before tip for this meal.
