Fabulous internet cafe in Ely. I spent time here one morning while my female cousins were getting…read moremassages at Pebble Spa and again later in the week when we all were doing laundry at Ely Speed Wash across the street. My first visit I enjoyed a house baked scone and the second visit I tried one of their breakfast burritos. Both were good choices, but if I had to repeat, I'd go with another scone. On their menu, they also offer quiche, muffins and a variety of danish. The coffee is self-serve once you order and they give you two regular and one decaf to choose from. If you add sugar to your coffee, they had the real thing, plus raw sugar and a rainbow of artificial sugars to choose from. I got a grin that the ice cream they offer was a small town company back home in Illinois. They serve, Prairie Farms. Which is based in, Carlinville, Illinois. It was nice to see that they support a farmer owned company. Front Porch does have a fabulous porch that almost wraps around the entire building. It is great for relaxing on a beautiful day. Pets are welcome with well behaved owners. Only thing that disappointed me was, I did not visit them on a Monday. Monday is the day, Seniors get a 10% discount and we all like to save. Staff was what you'd expect from a small town coffee shop, it was extremely friendly. Everyone knew each other, yet they made out-of-town folks feel welcomed as well.

In addition to the delicious hot and cold specialty drinks, LCC offers a variety of pastries for you to grab and go. My experience was a black drip coffee and a blueberry scone. Both were so good, I stopped by on my way out of Ely, for one more fix. With everyone in our group being from IL and one being a graduate of U of I, we were impressed that the owner was a graduate of U of I, too.

I had the mango chicken salad with poppy seed dressing. It was absolutely excellent, but the mangoes were dried. I get this is Virginia, fresh mangoes are hard to come by.

Everyone else had a wrap - they are big enough that unless you are really starving I'd order a half. This is our new go-to place every time we pass through!

The meal came with 3 huge buttermilk, fluffy pancakes and 3 strips of bacon. So good. Husband had the Hole in One breakfast and it was a hole in one. Eggs, bacon, toast, and hash browns. Both our meals were served steaming hot. Staff was wonderful. There was even a local gentleman that told us about the formation of the lake from a mine. We sat inside but wished we would have sat on their patio. So beautiful.

The food is…read morerather good compared to the competition (and exceeded by expectations given it's a "resort restaurant"). The service is friendly and efficient. I recommend this above the other options in the area for sure and I commend the owners for keeping quality and experience high while effectively having guests be "captive". FOOD: I've had the burger and their salad. The burger was simple yet very much met my desires. It had a well chosen bun, good tasting patty, and perfectly crispy bacon. Truly simple yet perfect. The salad was beyond the normal level of restaurant salads. The protein on it (chicken) was flavorful and not a skimpy portion. This was an enjoyable salad (not a status earned lightly). I really do appreciate the ownership here for their food choice and the chefs for their execution of it. SERVICE: friendly, efficient. Nothing too much to say here. AMBIANCE: casual yet not too informal. Perfect for anything (friends, vacation vibes, or a nice date night)! I do highly recommend this option and will be back when I'm next in the area.

My husband and I stopped in to Cascade Restaurant 2 separate times during our weekend trip up to Lutsen. The restaurant was conveniently located 5 minutes from our lodging- Thomsonite Inn. When you first enter, you grab a menu, sit wherever is open, and order at the register which is a different set-up but worked well for them. Our 1st visit, I ordered the seafood chowder and fried chicken dinner which were both phenomenal. Every spoonful of the chowder was filled with clams and fish. The portion size of the extra crispy fried chicken fed me for 2 nights. I left there so satisfied! When we came back for breakfast, I had another delicious meal of the avocado toast with balsamic glaze. I would definitely come back here for the delicious food next time we road trip up North again.

We were told they were at full capacity with a 45 min wait but then our kind server moved around a few tables for us and got us in. Very considerate.

(Wait was surprisingly short, pleasantly surprised.) Food was good! I had a house salad because I wasn't feeling like anything big, but it was a great salad. Side note- spent about an hour admiring this fish with my dad and heatedly debating what type of fish it is. Only to notice after all this time there was a title under it Came for the food, stayed for the fish

Now for the service. I believe her name is Jessie? She is a server there with dark hair, usually wears a bandana or beanie with hair in side ponies. She is so rude! I am always a nice person and she has visibly rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and made my interactions with her very uncomfortable and unprofessional. I do not know how the owner has kept her on all these years. I cannot be the only one who has thought of her as being very rude. She is rude in resteraunt and when I pick up orders as well!
