Loaded Omelette
Julie M.

Fast service on a Friday night and such great comfort food. We had beef manhattans and split a brownie. The waiter was funny and fast. Excellent place to listen to music on patio and stare at water for date night or treat yourself night.

Location: Cambridge City, IN I absolutely love this restaurant. Barely off I-70, it's worth the detour for breakfast or lunch. Open for dinner a few days a week... best sandwiches and fried sides anywhere. I have worked my way through most of the sandwiches, a few salads, and one or two of their entrees. Everything has been really good. Try the Lakeview burger if you dare - jalapeño's, peanut butter, and bacon works really well.

Been driving pass this place for a long time and just never gave it a chance. My go to breakfast spot just happened to be closed last Wednesday so I ended up here. What a happy accident. This place is awesome. First off it might be one of the cleanest restaurants I have ever been in. Everything was so shiny and bright. The service was fantastic as well as the food. My waitress is super nice and also gave me a menu to take home because I was inquiring about their dinner hours. They have an awesome patio out back that's right on a small lake and it also has a 21 and over bar section back there. After a fantastic experience at breakfast I am looking forward to coming back soon to try their dinner.

They actually have a full bar. Their website would never tell you that.

I am so glad I recently discovered this place! It's situated on the edge of a big lake. In warm weather its amazing because they have a beautiful outdoor bar and patio and you sit right on the water. The food is incredible and the pricing is very good. I have tried a lot of different items and have never had a bad meal. They also have live music on occasion. It's a great neighborhood restaurant/bar worth checking out. They also have a place down the street called Number ( Grill. It's also amazing.

Patty Melt Sandwich and Onion Rings

I have not eaten here since I was a kid, and I knew they had closed and reopened at some point over the years. I came to eat here one evening with a friend, and they did not disappoint. We had Shrimp Scampi as an appetizer, and it was good. I was trying to save room for my meal. I ordered the Patty Melt Sandwich and Onion Rings and Coke Zero. All of it was delicious. They had a big crowd that evening, so they did not disappoint anyone. The service was great, and the waitress was very nice. If I am ever in the neighborhood again, I would probably stop by here again.

This is the 2nd chicken leg-and the first one was just like it-see the red in it

I know the chicken was bad-after 2x trying to get it done correctly-I don't ask for another one after that-the mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans and my wings were done perfectly-good vibes in the whole place-the service was good-nice to look out and see the geese in the water

Grilled chicken sandwich

I would recommend this place. It was very clean, even the bathrooms. The food was delicious. Orded the cheddar broccoli soup, grilled chicken sandwich, and Reubens sandwich with waffle fries. The waitress was polite and keep checking on us.

Geese by the lake, view from our table inside!
Brittany R.

Great food and awesome view of the lake! Nice atmosphere and pleasant waitresses! I had the cod and French fries and my husband had the smash burger with bacon and the sweet potato fries! We strongly recommend both of these items! We will be returning to try other delicious sounding items on the menu!

Been here a couple of times over the past year or so (since it reopened). Place is nice and clean and our breakfast has always been good and service is decent. The front hostess/kids seemed a little annoyed to have to seat us (each time we were there... just not really friendly), but it's not the end of the world. The servers are better, though! You'll leave full and prices are decent.

This was my first time stopping into Lakeview since the recently opened. The remodel that they have done really brightened it up, and made it very welcoming. The service is very good, and just like the building very welcoming! I enjoyed the Cod sandwich minus the bun and it was very good. The fish was not over greasy, and was nice and crunchy. I can't wait to try out more of the menu!

Good hot food, friendly service, and pleasant atmosphere. Off the main highway but was worth the side trip. Cod fillets were very good.

Lumpy's has good food, but what this place offers beyond the food is a old fashioned atmosphere…read more You know in the movies when people in small towns go to the local diner and everyone knows everyone and strangers are welcomed like family, this place is exactly that, but real. It gives you a warm feeling watching people catching up with each other and just being friendly. And the staff is a huge part of that experience. They will make you feel like a VIP. You might even meet some of the cooks who sometimes deliver the food themselves and the owner who also has a strong presence in the restaurant. So if you are passing through town or antiquing, stop by Lumpy's to experience some small town hospitality. Maybe I'll see ya there.

The town was quiet on Saturday morning. But not at Lumpy's Cafe. The small diner that seats about…read more50 was full, with people waiting by the door for a table to open. Apparently, Lumpy's is a favorite of the locals. The staff calls the regulars by name. Everyone else is "Honey." I was "Honey." There was a table of regulars drinking coffee and talking politics and shooting the bull. It's a salt of the earth kind of local diner. A table opened up by the door after ten minutes. The menu is filled with comfort food. Most meals under $10. Nothing fancy, omelettes, burgers, sandwiches. Our server was sweet and recommended the tenderloins. The dining room is simple. Chairs and tables and a few booths. On the back wall are old photos of veterans. Local veterans being remembered by the cafe. My husband had the Big Tenderloin (which is award winning) with seasoned fries. The tenderloin was as big as his head. The meat was moist and tender and the breading seasoned well. The fries were crispy thin-cut with a few spices. He ate half the sandwich. I had the Crispy Chicken Sandwich. It was also seasoned with a crunchy breading similar to the tenderloin. The meat was moist. The cole slaw was creamy and sweet....delicious. They do a robust business in-house and carry out. If you are looking for avocado toast and and oat milk latte, this is not the place to come. If good old comfort food will suffice, then it just doesn't get better than Lumpy's.

Avoid this place like the plague. For 2 salads 1 Pepsi and a small glass of milk $35.00…read more A small milk was $4. The additional eggs was two dollars, and fifty cents, and a small pepsi was two dollars.And fifty cents. No eggs for the salad and no mushrooms for the salad. No fruit on the salad bar. No french dressing rude waitresses. And we had to pay extra ford eggs. Yet when I call them and ask them if it was a full solid bar they said, oh yes, of course. They did say that the salad bar was unlimited. What little or was. Yet, they required you to get a second small plate rather than just give you one large plate to get your food. Places like this should be shut down. Save your money go to mcdonald's at least there.They have eggs in a salad. When my wife informed them that we would not be back to have dinner here ever again. The cook basically, just shrugged your shoulders and said, whatever. It's businesses like this that give the United States a bad name.

It has nice nostalgia in the building, but the food is anything you can get anywhere, and probably…read moresome of it for less. I went because it received great reviews, but it's just ok. None of the food stood out to me, or made me want to go back. There's no wow factor. French fries are crinkle cut and bland so make sure you add seasoning. Mushroom burger was just a flavorless mushroom burger. It was ok. But not worth the 40 minute drive.

Hubby & I tried this place for the first time along with my son. We perused the menu while waiting…read moreon our soft drinks. The service was attentive & polite. The ambiance is a turn of the century brick firehouse. Hubby & I ordered the Firehouse Sampler ($34.95) with 2 sides (mac n cheese, scalloped cabbage). My son got the Pulled Pork ($14.95) with 2 sides (mac n cheese, green beans). Both of these meals needed garlic bread served with them. There were 3 made in-house bbq sauces & they were all bland. Sadly, there was no Carolina gold bbq sauce. The meat was good but a little dry. Of the 3 sides we tried, the green beans were the best. I would like to return & try something on the Handhelds menu. I need bread with my bbq meat!

Hallelujah the sweet potato casserole is back. This is a seasonal item and my personal favorite…read more Parrot with Tom's Mojo, which is pulled pork mac & cheese on sourdough bread and grilled... You have an experience that will please any pallet. I love it that they have three different barbecue sauces for you to choose from, Hot, sweet and mild. To me it lets you choose the flavors you like because one has a little more of a brown sugar taste and the other has a little more of a vinegar taste. I like to dip my sandwich. I got the visit in the evening and introduce a friend from Michigan to one of my favorite restaurants. He was so happy with a brisket. There is so much history and so many cool things to read on the walls. The decor is charming and it's an awesome place to sit and have a beer and catch up with a friend afterwards. It's my favorite for lunch and dinner in the depot district.
