They have a great variety of grilled cheese sandwiches. Great appetizers too! I was there on open mic night. My great nephew was playing. Lots of talented locals. The placed was packed. Get there early . Stay for the talent. read more

The place is a cozy place where you can enjoy the bands playing music while enjoying there food and everyone is so social able-bodied

Friendly people, great food, and a chance at live music or outdoor dining. We stopped in on Sunday where they only serve breakfast until 1:30. No music for us this day. The place had fun artwork on the walls and outdoor tables. Back to the food: I tried the Hippie Hash and a side of French toast. My daughter tried the southern slam, but put the gravy on the side. Everything was well prepared and very tasty. We will definitely keep this place in mind anytime we can make it to Goshen. read more

Plain Folk Cafe - Biscuits and gravy with bacon, I had to have a bite before the picture. Oops, sorry. - Cafes Near Me - Pleasant Plain, Ohio

We've had breakfast and dinner here. Our experiences have all been positive. The food and service have been worth going back for.

Very pleased! The menu was just big enough to offer a variety and small enough for them to be good at what they do! The beer selection was good and the food was really good. Great service! My only complaint was the live music is just too much for the size of the restaurant. We will definitely be back! read more

We always get great food and service when we visit for breakfast on Sundays. Love the atmosphere

Just plain cozy with good food and good service. Take your time and enjoy yourselves.

Good and music, what could be better? Great food and people. Nice atmosphere too. We will be back soon.

This is a great-food, great-atmosphere, and great-entertainment place that was a pleasant surprise for us. We went on open-mic night and that was a great surprise. Grilled cheese - a million types - and dessert to die for. That is what we all ordered and not one of use left a crumb on the plate b read more

I was craving some home cooked comfort food for breakfast. This place fixed my craving. Their homemade gravy was so good that I had to go up and get more. Prices are good, service was great, and food was phenomenal! read more

Good food and great atmosphere. It is rather convenient for my wife and I to go to this restaurant, we live about a mile from it. Great wraps and sandwiches. All seem to be homemade. Very nice people that own and run the business. You won't be let down and make sure to get the soft pretzels with beer cheese! read more

Great place with good food and live music!! Have been there a few times. Never disappointed read more

I have been wanting to visit this place for a long time, so I was excited to finally make it there! It's very quaint and everyone is so friendly! My boyfriend and I decided to try it out since they have an extensive menu with multiple gluten free options. We both got one of their grilled cheese sandwiches on gluten free bread and they were amazing! The sandwiches are a little small, so if you're hungry, you might want to add soup or chili as a side. But they were very tasty and we would totally go back! read more

Driven past this place many times. Decided to try it for lunch on Saturday. It was not too crowded but there was a steady flow of patrons. The menu is varied all kinds of sandwiches and salads and appetizers. We started off with a cup of chili. It was delicious. We then got sandwiches with chips and pasta salad as our sides.My panini was great as was my husband's club sandwich. We will be back. read more

Ordered breakfast to go! Portion sizes are great! We usually go to First Watch, but the food is better here, and the price is cheaper as well. We just found our new favorite breakfast spot. Support Local! read more

Always good, breakfast is worth the trip. Love the laid back, family style atmosphere. Owners seem to always be glad you stopped in. These types of restaurants are what is missing in a lot of small towns. read more

Amazing food & owners! Worth the drive! I love that it's in an old school house, very 70s vibe with the decor! Loved it!

Wife has been trying to get me here for 3 years. Can't believe I haven't gone until 2 weeks ago. Have now been every Saturday morning for breakfast. The food is awesome. All homemade and fresh. Love the atmosphere. Still haven't been for lunch/dinner but it's going to happen eventually. read more

Great food, chill atmosphere, family friendly and they even sell art from local artist! They have a playground out back to entertain the kids while parents get to enjoy the music & delish food! read more

Awesome breakfast. I highly recommend the Hippie Hash or Southern Stack. Friendly folks and great atmosphere.

Just not the same under new ownership. We've gone ack twice and both times something's been wrong. Last time we were served rotten fruit. This time it was burned hash browns. I asked to have them replaced, and they brought more burned home fries. There are too many other good breakfast places...give this one a skip. read more

Absolutely love this place! Amazing chicken salad, soups are delicious and my family eats breakfast here every weekend! I wish I lived closer so I could join them! Highly recommend hippie hash on the breakfast side, but everything I've tried has been delicious AND extremely affordable. read more

This used to be a two-room schoolhouse built in 1913 (The Pleasant Plain Public School). Very old and historical. They serve fresh-brewed gourmet coffee, have a nice craft beer selection, cafe menu, and live entertainment. When we went on a Saturday night, it was Bluegrass. Which is not too loud. We were able to find seating at the booth. You order your drinks and food at the counter. They keep a tab running/open. The servers bring your food out to you. They call you by your name, so you must stay alert. We started off with the hummus as an appetizer which comes with Tortilla chips, panini bread and veggies (zucchini, carrots and celery). Very delicious. I got the Turkey BLT on Panini (very delicious, it was not soggy) and as my sides Kettle chips and pasta salad (slight tangy and seasoned just right). Loved my meal. My husband got Southwestern Chicken Salad- Mixed greens with grilled onions, peppers, black beans, and corn; and garnished with sour cream, spoonful of salsa, and served with tortilla chips. There are other items on menu that I want to try (menu selection is very simple and not overwhelming). Love the decor- Vinyls and Vintage items (has a hippy vibe). I felt very welcomed. Great place to chill out and get comfortable. Restaruant clean and staff very friendly. Bathroom small yet clean. I can't wait until it gets warm. You can enjoy outdoor seating and I heard there is a playground behind the restaurant for kids. Also known for displaying Volkswagen Bus in the front. Great experience and looking forward to coming back. read more

I had a great breakfast at Plain Folk. Omelet, toast, hash browns. Simple yet tasty. The Resteraunt is filled with nice employees. It's a warm , quirky space that is delightful, nostalgic and comfortable. I have only had breakfast here and will certainly go back. Give this spot a try. read more

Great ambiance and experience. Super friendly and welcoming staff. Clean and casual. Good variety of good foods. Say they specialize in grilled cheeses, though they are really just all kinds of regular sandwiches just focused on starting with the cheese, which I respect as a cheese lover. The Fat Tire cheese dip with 3 smaller soft pretzels was great. Cute crinkled panini "fries" (my description) was a cute add on to the tasty cheesy broccoli soup special. I had a good cranberry and almond salad to lighten up all the delicious cheese. Hubby got tasty soup too and club panini which he enjoyed. GOOD KIDS MENU options INCLUDE A FRUIT CUP option instead of chips as a side. Milk for the kids too and mine enjoyed the cheese quesadilla. Bathrooms were fine and stocked though nothing fancy and women's needs a hook for purses. NO CHANGING TABLE either which is fine for a music venue but not as helpful for families out for breakfast or lunch. Nice modern PLAYGROUND and cute OUTDOOR SEATINGwould have kept me there for hours enjoying a beer or cider if weather had been warmer. Eating in an old two room school house was a great unique experience in an adorable small town. Highly recommend! read more

Great food, casual dining ! Hippie style, Music on weekends, open mic Thursday night and good food. You'll place your order at the counter, then it will be brought to you! Fun friendly atmosphere read more

Plain Folk Cafe is one of my favorite spots of all time! The restaurant is always spotless, and the workers are amazing. I usually go here a few times a month after volunteering at Circle Tail, which is a few minutes away. The chili is the best that I have ever had in my life, and I LOVE the 5pull grilled cheese! If it's band night, get there early and find your spot! This place is popular and they fill up fast, staff will take care of you just the same even if they're slammed! Love it! read more

EXCELLENT. Played great folk music the entire time. We got nachos, soup, a grilled cheese (the "Marley" was incredible) and a club sandwich. Super friendly staff, fast service, cheap food, good beer. Will be returning. read more

I've been here twice and I love it! The food is amazing, the price is great, and the people are awesome. If it's your first time, the people are awesome about explaining the menu and how ordering works. The one band I've heard play was pretty meh, but that's not their fault. read more

Plain Folk Cafe is a great place to go to just sit down with friends and family and enjoy a night out. The entertainment is great and is fun to watch and listen to. The breakfast there is good because you can tell that a lot of love went into it. I like the Hippie Hash and the omelets and also their homemade jams. read more

I went here for their annual Thanksgiving Eve (I go every year!) and they now have GLUTEN FREE BREAD! Also the chili is gluten free too! Just had to let all my GF friends know you can eat here! I did not have a reaction and they showed me the seasoning they use so I could verify it was GF. read more

As soon as I walked inside I was greeted by the nicest and most helpful woman. She explained the process, took my order, and explained they were running a bit behind as they adjust to the changes they made. I sat outside on the back deck, enjoyed the sun, listened to the folk music they had playing, and it didn't really seem as long as she said. The grilled cheese I ordered was hot and gooey...perfect! I love this little spot, so homey and comfortable. Wish it was closer, I would be there all the time. read more

I stopped in here for a breakfast with a group of folks. A pretty eclectic place with a lot of Grateful Dead memorabilia and icons on display. Coffee and drinks are self serve. Good breakfast menu with very reasonable prices. I had the Hippie Hash which had a nice mix of all my favorite breakfast foods plus some fresh peppers and onions. A couple people with me had pancakes and French toast that looked great. It's out of the way but worth checking out. Staff and everyone were very friendly and they had shirts and such on sale. The building is a former 2-room schoolhouse. read more
