My wife and I stopped here after viewing dozens of eagles at Coville Park, just outside of Red Wing. The place we were going to go was closed, so we crossed the street to find the Red Wing Café. This is one of those places that you discover by happy accident and are thrilled that luck made it possible. It's also one of those places that I wished was in MY neighborhood in Minneapolis so I could be a regular. The place was warm and cozy, even in February. Although it was packed, we scored a table. It has all day breakfasts and my wife ordered the pecan Belgian waffle. I was more than amazed that it was served with a bottle of pure maple syrup from a place in nearby Wisconsin. Real maple syrup is usually an upcharge in most restaurants these days. It was all the crispy and gooey goodness that you could hope for. All of the breakfasts at the tables around us looked great, so I started to regret my choice of the hot turkey sandwich I ordered with fries (as a substitute for the mashed potatoes). My regret turned to joy because this was one of the best hot turkey sandwiches I've had, and believe me, I've had many! The turkey slices was thickly carved, juicy, and fresh. The gravy, which is usually the downfall, was absolutely wonderful. Not too salty and perfectly flavored. My mouth is watering as I'm typing this! The fries were hot and crispy. Even the coffee was great. I know where we are eating the next time we visit Red Wing. read more

Red Wing Cafe - A warm cozy place on a cold winter day. - Cafes Near Me - Red Wing, Minnesota

I'm always fair in my reviews, but... WOW. I'm still laughing at how unbelievably awful this experience was. We decided to stop in for a late lunch and try somewhere new. I ordered the French toast. It arrived barely warm, and after almost finishing the first slice... I found a hair. The other meal went like this: "I'll have the soup, salad, and bread." "What kind of soup?" we asked. "The soup of the day," the server replied. We looked at each other and thought, Okay... surprise soup. "So what are the bread choices?" (Thinking breadsticks, garlic toast, something...) "It's like toast." "Okay... wheat toast then." The meal arrived: Soup was cold and looked like Campbell's Chunky Soup. Salad was warm, consisting of iceberg lettuce and a quarter slice of tomato. Wheat toast was cold. Crackers were stale. Needless to say, neither of us finished our meals. I politely pointed out the hair to the server. Her response? "Oh... do you want me to have them make another one?" Ummm... no. Then came the bill: about $24. Nothing was taken off. No discount. No real apology until I mentioned paying full price for a meal with a hair in it. Then, to top it all off, they asked if we wanted a to-go box. For what,, the hair!! At that point, all we could do was laugh. It was honestly one of the most unbelievable dining experiences I've ever had. read more

Red Wing Cafe - Yeah! This is the receipt - Cafes Near Me - Red Wing, Minnesota

See all

Local restaurants are awesome! Our waitress had a very strong MN accent that made you feel you were "Up North." [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was busy but has plenty of seating for large and small groups.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food tastes great! Only wish would be for the portion sizes to be a little bigger. The French toast was done perfectly and tasted great. read more

Giant menu, but maybe too big. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seemed "home towny" when we sat down, but turned out to be mostly visitors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Hawaiian chix sandwich lacked flavor, pineapple straight from the can and almost raw bacon with a very lackluster cheese. Friend got the GCwBacon and said the same (only her bacon was cooked) The staff takes the home kitchen vibe a little too far, loudly communicating across the room (ok yelling across the room) Also, fairly high prices for a side street cafe. Overall...would not go back read more

Food was ok. Omelet looked like scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon mixed in. Did not resemble an omelet at all. Service very very slow. Noticed people did not get their whole order at one time. Parts now and then. Ugh! Will not dine here again! read more

We tried Red Wing Cafe and had a great time! The food took a while but was 100% worth the wait, the waitress was so kind, and the atmosphere was very cool. It reminded me of an antique store turned into restaurant. I had the breakfast burrito and it was very good! read more

Good food and great customer service! A lot of food and great prices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Friendly staff.

Similar to another small town restaurant review I just did, this place is similarly just ok. Nothing awful. Nothing great. Typical small town diner. Staff was nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I chose the counter area, as it was empty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm a fan of canned corned beef hash, so when I saw they had a benedict containing said item, I had to have it. This could have been so much better, if they did the following. They should have toasted the english muffin just a tad. It didn't seem like it was toasted at all. They could have added more corned beef hash. And, they needed to use about half as much hollandaise as they did. The meal was drowning in it (see pic). In this case, less is more. The eggs were good. Hash browns were just ok, too. Some portions were colder than the others. I also did order a pancake. That was actually the best part of the meal. Not your typical buttermilk. It was a good size, too. And a cup of ok coffee topped off the meal. read more

We were looking forward to visiting and having breakfast here. We got seated promptly after walking in the door. We decided what we wanted and ordered. 35 minutes and no food yet. 45 minutes later and no food. 50 minutes later and no food. When I asked a server to check on our food, the server informed us that there was only one cook and our food was "next." We waited another 10 minutes for our food. When we finally received our food, I was not impressed. The food was mediocre, at best. Hashbrowns were cold and had no flavoring. I don't think we'll be back. read more
