Oh Kokomo. Your breakfast places make me so darn happy. Frittatas was some much needed reapitenfrom…read morethe chaos that was the BMV. My son and I, fresh from a driver's license renewal that took about five million years, slide into our chairs and ordered biscuits and gravy (for the table) and two skillets; mine veggie and his meat lovers. I got pancakes and he got toast. We split them because both were delicious. The skillets were tasty and they give you any hot sauce you desire. The breakfast was out quick, the coffee was hot, and our waitress was wonderful. If you ever find yourself in Kokomo, find your way to Frittatas!

Frittatas Restaurant is a cozy, quaint restaurant that is perfect for comfort food. They offer an…read moreextensive menu of breakfast and lunch options, and the service was excellent--especially considering that the restaurant was completely full. There was a 45 minute wait, but it was definitely worth the wait. I also appreciated that we could wait in the covered patio area instead of being squeezed into the restaurant. I loved the chocolate chip pancakes--the portion size is HUGE, yet reasonably priced! The omelettes were also a big hit at my table; my dad customized his own omelette, but they also have some specialty omelettes on the menu. I definitely recommend adding a side of hash browns to your order! Frittatas really hit the spot--it was the perfect place to enjoy a family brunch.

Hand breaded, fried to perfection. The heat fibally broke here, so I sat outdoors and enjoyed the breeze and the views. This quaint place is rustic, on a lake where you can rent kayaks, get bait and tackle, etc. They serve breakfast all day, as well. They serve canned drinks and bottled water. No ice is available. Staff are friendly. An older gentleman was wiping all the outside tables. Very relaxing lunch. I would come back, maybe to try breakfast.

My stop was at breakfast and I ordered my usual mushroom omelette. It was a delicious three egg omelette prepared with my cheese selection - American. Don't you judge me! It came with a huge homemade biscuit. I added a single pancake because the menu said that it was the largest, fluffiest pancake that I had ever seen. They weren't kidding. I'm not sure how you can even get a pancake this thick and it still be so light and fluffy on the inside. It was heaven. Served with warm syrup. It was as big as my head. ... and I have a big, German head.

The restaurant was a lot more kitschy than I was expecting, which I loved. Our waitress had a wonderful energy. She was very knowledgeable about the menu. The menu had several unique items. I ordered a Scottish soda called IRN BRU. I love trying food and drinks from around the world. It tasted like an Orange Crush soda. Our waitress said they were known for their Cauliflower soup. It was cold outside so soup sounded perfect. I also got a pepper jack grilled cheese. The soup came in a huge bowl. The combo of the soup and grilled cheese was very filling. My friends ordered the sticky pudding. I had a bite and it was delicious. I cant believe it's taken me so long to eat here. I throughly enjoyed it and cant wait for my next road trip.

It's a few minutes off the highway, but certainly doesn't feel like you're in Gas City, IN. It looks like they added on an outdoor space recently. Nothing too extravagant, but nice enough for lunch. A nice younger man took care of us on the patio. The menu was quite eclectic and unique. The tortilla chips and cold bean dip was a great way to start. Both our soups were fantastic....cheddar cheese for one and leek soup the other. Fish and chips hit the spot and apparently a fan favorite. My wife had the club sandwich of GF bread.

They still have the goofy hours closing at three. It felt dark & dingy. Pieces of trash on floor runners as walked to our seats. Pieces of napkin? The cloth seats of the booths are stained. Although it's always been overpriced, it's gone up even more, and it's just not pleasant now. Three women at the front hostess desk didn't acknowledge my party right away, and when one did, she seemed annoyed we were there. Our server wasn't any more welcoming nor friendly. Worse, actually. I received a large mug of decaf. No non-dairy options and given bowl of individual cups of half-and-half. While it proved to actually be devoid of caffeine, the coffee didn't taste good at all. Not sure what brand they must be using. No refills offered for our table, but I couldn't even finish this cup. $3.00 for this crap. Soft drinks are nearly $4, juice almost $3 and $4 depending on the size... Everything here is extremely overpriced. The portion of hash browns I was given was huge, but they were not good either. I normally have trouble with undercooked hash browns with no color when I go out. These were overcooked and too crunchy to get on a fork. Greasy. Rye toast okay. I'm sure real dairy butter. I didn't bother to ask... I'm glad they offer mushrooms. However, I could tell they came from a can. I also like that tomato juice is an option, but I didn't get that this time. Rye bread is a welcomed sight. Given checks before we were finished. No drink refills offered. I was never brought the straw the server said she owed me. She only had one on hand. You must take your check up front to pay. As annoyed as they seemed to have us come in the doors, you'd think they would have checked us out sooner. My two sides ala carte with coffee came to over $11 before tip. Not pictured, a lady at my table paid even more for a fountain drink and their granola and yogurt parfait with fruit. It looked good, but good Lord. $12 and change?? Just really unenthusiastic attitudes. Food quality and atmosphere went WAYYY down. I feel like I need a shower and to put my clothes in the wash from feeling greasy and having that oily smell cling to my shirt which was fresh when I went in. I don't know how this place is still in business other than the fact that it's one of the only restaurant options in this awful little town, so you don't have much choice if you want to go somewhere to sit down...

The space itself is what appears to be an old schoolhouse, and it's incredibly warm and welcoming inside. There's a great mix of seating on the first floor, including community seating near a fireplace, smaller tables, and larger tables for groups. I noticed there's also an upstairs area that I didn't explore, but even just the main level felt homey and comfortable. It's definitely a spot I'd come back to for getting out of the house to work, bringing a laptop, or even meeting friends for a casual coffee date. The vibe is very cozy and inviting, and the staff was friendly and kind. The menu is thoughtfully curated, not overwhelming, but still offers a nice variety of syrups and flavors. My only small wish is that there were more loose-leaf tea options beyond black and green tea, but that didn't take away from the experience. Overall, this was a fantastic visit and a café I'd happily return to.

And at least for the holiday season, the interior looks incredibly cozy and inviting. If you have nowhere to go for a few hours, it would be a nice place to hang out and chat with friends. However, the coffee is fine, not spectacular. And the wait on the Tuesday morning I stopped by was about 25 minutes. Maybe it was quicker in the drive thru, but then you'd miss out on the decorations.
