The bar has limited seating. The inside is nice and clean. Our waitress was very attentive. They had Daily specials that included corned beef sandwich, surf and turf and rainbow trout. Their menu also has a lot to offer. We ordered burgers. Over all the muffuletta burger was decent. The burger was a bit dry and over cooked. Very greasy. The spicy Mayo is indeed spicy which I liked. The bbq bacon burger was good but the burger was dry and over cooked. The onion rings were great and the corn chowder was excellent. I would return and try other menu items for sure.

I appreciate the effort they put into their daily specials- love the homemade bread options (worth it), especially when combined with their chicken salad. Their omelettes and eggs are great- it's a very relaxed country breakfast/lunch place with just the sort of food you would hope to find in a local establishment.

Someone is always there eating and it can get a little crowded on Friday and Saturday nights. Police often stop in to eat. Did I mention the incredible homemade pies, either full or by the slice? Blueberry and peanut butter pies are my favorites! We stop by or get take-out regularly and our friends all enjoy it too. Staff is always friendly and the food is ready quickly.

Bacon and cheese omelettes, crispy hash browns and tasty flavored pancakes. I'm not sure what they add to the pancakes but the taste reminds me of being in Grandma's kitchen. Service was very good, attentive and friendly and the prices are comparable to local diners. This restaurant is located directly off the Wauseon Turnpike exit so convenient for travelers as well as locals. There was just two of us but a group was seated and plenty of room for small and larger parties. We will need to stop back for some of the dinners soon.

The comparisons with (the previous occupant of this location) Mayberry Diner, are inevitable…read more TL;DR: Marigold Cafe (MC) is very similar to Mayberry Diner (OG) but the food is better. Atmosphere: MC is comfortable and clean...maybe it's a half click up from Mayberry, but it's comparable. Service: Very good. Friendly and accommodating of special orders. Wait time was minimal. I liked the "pay at the table" mechanism. Price: Maybe MC is a little more expensive than Mayberry, but not much more, considering inflation. Bottom line: If you like Mayberry Diner, but you want just a little more, Marigold Cafe is for you. 5 stars!
