Minnesota Nice Cafe - Omelettes with hash browns and pancakes - Cafes Near Me - Bemidji, Minnesota

Cute diner, busy on a Sunday morning Went here to stop for some breakfast on the way back to the cities. Arrived around 10:20 on a Sunday morning and had to wait about 20 minutes. Waitstaff was very friendly. Two coffees (pay for the cup and you get a pitcher for the table), corned beef eggs Benedict, and country spuds with blueberry pancakes came out to about $51 with tax and tip. Not too bad for price. Loved that they bring the story of the diner to the table. You can read about its history while you wait for your food. read more

This place gets BUSY, so busy. Be prepared to wait a bit if you go at the high traffic time. That's a good sign right? Good service, good food, it is worth the wait. read more

I came here not WONCE, but TWYCE! My buddies joined me. First time, went for the the special, chicken fried steak. That was so good I am serious I went back the second time and was bummed it wasn't there even though I was excited to see Annie who was our waitress and the reason we came back. She is awesome, but don't challenge her to a roller blade contest she will beat you. I didn't challenge her because I know I will get embarrassed. The second time I was bummed about the whole chicken fried steak thing so my boy Gavin, the waiter, he's the man, super cool, super chill, the ultimate dude, told me to ball out with the Ruben. Think I missed an e in Reuben. He even brought me the 1000 island dressing to dip it into. I don't usually like Rebens, but I like this one. Also had to get it because my boy told me to. I'm a dog for that. This place is awesome. read more

Everything about this place screams nice. Food, staff and price. Love it!!!! This place makes me wish I lived in Minnesota!

Great place for Breakfast. We arrived on a Friday morning and were immediately seated and greeted by our server. We ordered 3 traditional breakfasts, an eggs benedict and an order of French toast. All were tasty and served hot. Large portions almost impossible to finish. Great food, excellent service. We will definitely be back again. read more

Great local breakfast spot. Was really busy on a Saturday morning. But my husband and I were seated within 10 minutes. Had a great breakfast and coffee to go with it. Toasty warm inside even in the waiting area despite it being -10 outside. Will be a regular here for sure. read more

I have gone for breakfast twice now on trips to Minnesota. They have breakfast dialed in. Crisp hashbrowns, tasty sausage with eggs and a hot carafe of coffee. I may also have a pancake. Service was attentive and quick. Ambience is that of having breakfast at a friend's house and the waitress and host make you feel right at home. read more

We were in the area for a few days and we found this gem of a place. We came for three days straight and had a fabulous breakfast every time!! Service was always quick and pleasant!! Thank you for our great meals!! read more

We had already made plans to eat breakfast here the day after a wedding we were attending and imagine our surprise when we learned they were the caterer! The food at the wedding was really good so we were looking forward to breakfast the next day. The service at the restaurant was great, our server was very friendly and the restaurant is spotlessly clean! We had the veggie omelet, eggs Benedict, wild rice omelet and a breakfast sandwich - all the food was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. read more

Was craving a breakfast out on the town and was slightly disappointed with our time here. Community was great, but food was lackluster. We ordered the original pancakes and cinnamon French toast. Both were bland and didn't have any flavor! Hoping to come back again one day and have a different outcome! read more

Each of us had different food (group of four) and three of us really enjoyed the meal. The nice rice bowl was very disappointing, though. There was little rice in it. It was mostly cabbage. The flavor was pretty bland. The pancake and French toast options were all quite good. The drinks were good as well. The service was pretty good, especially given it was quite busy. read more

The best thing about this place is the variety of breakfast dishes. The food is okay but it's hard to screw up breakfast. However, if you're planning on eating here, it's wise to call and make sure you actually talk to someone! Unless you follow them on Facebook, you'll have no idea when they close. The message on their answering machine will not mention that they are closed, but actually suggests that they are open and unable to answer the phone. When I brought this to the attention of the owner, he was very inconsiderate and non apologetic, which tells me a lot about the way the business is run. I believe he feigns interest in his customers, especially in review responses, but in reality could care less. read more

Love this spot. Great service. Food is solid. Comfortable and good spot for comfort breakfast

Very popular on a Saturday morning but was seated in about 10-15 min. Reasonable coffee but nice touch bringing a carafe for the table. House made corned beef hash is not to be missed. Waitress suggested wildrice-cranberry toast and was a great choice read more

Where to start 1. Food quality: food came out 1:15 minutes after we sat down on a Friday morning 2. Food came out staggerd about an hour from start to finish we received French toast an hour before the last hot item came to the table. I don't mind if items come out hot when done but an hour from first to last item is very unprofessional. 3. Ordered potato pancakes received circular hashbrowns swimming in butter in the shape of a pancake with no batter at all. Could not eat were totally gross. 4. Ordered American fries there must have been at least a 1/2 to 3/4 cup of oil on the plate and potato's too. Could barely eat any. 5. Ordered French toast that was cold as well. 6. Food came out in varying degrees of warmth from cold eggs to right off the griddle. 7. Asked for apple sauce she said yes we have that received the equivalent of pie filling to put on potato pancakes. Asked for sour cream too never came. 8. Oh did I mention other people came after us ordered and ate and left before we got our food. 9. Told sever about all of the short comings and oopsies...no adjustment to our bill and no no apologies. She said: "I'll tell the kitchen." Who cares take care of your customers! 10. Won't be back. Very disappointing. Would give zero stars if possible read more

Small town local place that has absolutely perfect breakfast foods! Great service even though they were super busy.

Had the wild rice paleo bowl scrambled eggs with pancakes and rhubarb strawberry compote. Compote was perfect not overly sweet or puckish tart. Pancakes were delicious and better than my from scratch buttermilk recipe. Eggs Benedict or pancakes/waffles enjoyed by the others in our party of 9. Attentive service. Busy expect a wait to be seated on the weekends read more

We were in Bamidji for a wedding and had breakfast here was wonderful food wonderful staff. Prices are reasonable portion are good I had four meat omelette and my wife had wild rice omelette, excellent read more

Our first and last time to this joint! The two young ladies were pleasant! I ordered the caramel apple French toast.... they left the skin on their apples creating tough to chew didn't see or taste Carmel... the bread tasted like it was a few days old and stale. The very large woman waitress came over and I told her I didn't care for the stale toast or the apple skin it was hard to swallow she asked me if I wanted it remade and I declined. my husbands breakfast was lukewarm at best but he ate it... the bacon was mostly fat! the big lady brought our check and I asked her if she was going to take my breakfast off the bill since I had only a few bites she remarked No! I'm not! I then told her to go ahead and make it this time to go! I figured my husband will eat it tomorrow..... next thing we know this very large man comes over and said Im not going to remake it for you!!! I will comp your meal and he took off in a huff! how rude of both of these people! We wanted to pay for husbands meal and my drink but the man said no! Their prices are extremely high and the food was not worth it! Not sure why they're NOT MN Nice!!! We've recently relocated here and these are the first people not nice!! read more

Wonderful Ruben Sandwich...probably the best I've had!! Service was awesome even tho they were very busy. Nancy J

What a really great sandwich? Look no further it's here! I had the Chicken Avocado Sandwich on Cranberry wild rice bread! It is the best! The staff is very Minnesota nice! It's well worth the stop if you are in Bemidji! They are only open until 2:00. So don't miss out!! read more

We were told about this place by the front desk team member at our hotel. Wow- what a great recommendation! We went for lunch. My husband had the Greek burger and he said it was delicious- unique flavor combination with the feta, peppers and olives. I had the breakfast sandwich with red potatoes. Both the sandwich and potatoes were terrific! Exceptionally nice staff. Clean and appropriate Covid precautions being taken. I highly recommend this place but make sure you are hungry as the portions are big and fairly priced. Enjoy! read more

We stopped in on a busy Saturday morning and were lucky to get a seat right away. We ordered a breakfast platter and an omelette and both were excellent. Highly recommend the wild rice omelette! read more

I was in search for a Saturday breakfast while in town for work. After looking on here at a few different places I choose to visit here. I was so glad that I made this my choice. I was looking for something a little more healthy then your normal eggs, bacon, and pancakes. I ordered the yogurt parfait that came with a pumpkin muffin and I also ordered the oatmeal with brown sugar and raisins and I added the baked apples. It was amazing and the wait staff was on point. You could tell they were focused on customer service. Thanks Minnesota Nice Cafe for such a wonderful experience!! read more

Attended a wedding in Bemidji recently and wanted a local breakfast. When I found Minnesota Nice I knew we had to find it. It is very very Minnesota Nice and a fabulous breakfast menu which I could not wait to try. My husband had the blueberry pancakes and I opted for the Paleo- Ish Skillet with Wild Rice Pancakes. I loved the spinach with wild rice, green peppers, onions, tomatoes and topped with three eggs! Deliciously fresh and great way to start a big day but Impossible to finish with the incredible wild rice pancakes. I sure wish a satellite Minnesota Nice Cafe was in my town in Nevada!! read more

Great service and food was really good will huge portions! I would recommend for anytime your hungry for home cooked flavor.

Excellent Food and Service. I always go there when I am in Bemidji. The food is delish and service is great.

What a find!! This is a classic little family run cafe with incredible breakfast foods. You can even buy real maple syrup- this place is authentic! I had the breakfast wrap and it was seriously delicious. I won't be able to top that meal for the rest of my trip. My friend had the corned beef omelette, and said it was great. I did sample some of her pancakes and regretted not ordering some for myself. This little spot is definitely worth visiting when in Bemidji! read more
