Blowing through town on a vacation road trip, this is a great stop . The donuts are outstanding!…read moreThe owner and helper greeted us and offered a hot glazed donut hole while we made our selections. Always fresh, raised and cake donuts of various kinds---so many choices! Do not skip the apple fritters and the Bavarian Cream-filled donuts as they were so good! The kolaches (sausages and jalapeño, wrapped in dough, then baked) were a "down the road" snack. Love the owner as she never forgets a face and engages conversation.

Carolyn's Essenhaus is a true gem on the Kansas prairie. Located just southwest of Salina along…read moreState Highway 61, it's well worth a stop at almost any time of day. They're open from 6:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Monday, Thursday, and Friday, and until 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Saturday. They're closed on Sundays. After a long day on the road traveling from Las Cruces, New Mexico, to Salina, Kansas, we arrived around 6:00 p.m. on a Monday evening. We were more than ready for a break. We had found Carolyn's Essenhaus on Yelp, and from the photos and reviews, it looked like just the kind of place we were hoping to find. Inside, the restaurant was much larger than we expected. The dining room was filled with local artwork, charming Kansas memorabilia, comfortable tables and booths, and a classic salad bar prominently displayed in the center. Table service was friendly, warm, and welcoming--like enjoying dinner in your grandmother's kitchen. My wife ordered the chopped steak topped with cheese and grilled onions, served with green beans and sweet potato fries. I chose one of the local favorites, essentially a hearty patty melt featuring a grilled burger, grilled onions, and a thick slice of grilled ham. Both entrées were excellent, but the real star of the meal was the salad bar--especially if you appreciate an old-fashioned, homemade selection. It instantly reminded me of family potlucks with all my aunts and uncles. There was macaroni salad, cottage cheese, potato salad, broccoli raisin salad, a sweet and creamy chopped cucumber salad, and plenty of other homemade favorites. It was so good that I went back for a second small plate and happily told our server to charge me for the extra trip. To finish the meal, we couldn't resist taking two slices of their homemade coconut cream pie to go. It was every bit as delicious as the rest of the meal. Before heading out, we picked up a few of their homemade cookies from the front counter, paid what we thought was a very reasonable bill, and continued our journey with full stomachs and smiles. If your travels ever take you near Arlington, Kansas, do yourself a favor and make time for Carolyn's Essenhaus. It's the kind of place that reminds you why small-town restaurants are often the most memorable stops on any road trip.

Nestled in downtown Coldwater, KS we found a jewel, Ozzie Bakes! A very cool and trendy, sit down…read morecafe/bakery offering delightfully delicious and satisfying homemade fare! The moment you step into Ozzie's you are greeted by a Welcome sign and the smile of Sue Little. Then, you notice the delightful display of freshly made meat pies and quiches to your left and fresh, homemade donuts, banana nut bread, pie and pastries to your right. There is also a menu of breakfast items and lunch fare on trendy chalkboards to choose from. Sue, owning a lovely Australia accent, graciously explained each item in the glistening glass case. The individual portioned Shook Pie, Shepard's pie and Quiche, were equally visually amazing, making my selection difficult. I chose the Schook pie. Comfort food derived from Sue's family recipes. Delicious individually crafted pastry pie filled with chicken, a delicate cream sauce, soft hints of garlic and savory vegetables. Each bite...Perfection! My husband, Jeff, chose a freshly created BLT from the lunch menu. After taking a bite, his description, "it is incredible!' Jeff chose a slice of heated Apple pie for desert and again, he said it was "The Best, ever!" Even when I say, Ozzie's is a Jewel, I feel I am in someway slighting it...Ozzie Bakes IS THAT GOOD! I chose a homemade glazed donut for desert, only intending on eating half. I ate one donut and THEN ate another half! Quite honestly the best tasting donut I have ever experienced! Completely out-doing the homemade ones I had in Canada some years back. If you are traveling, through Coldwater, Kansas or within a hundred mile radius, 'Ozzie Bakes' is worth a stop. Come hungry, you won't be disappointed.

I grew up in this town, but I've been living out of state for the last 30 years. So when I say "I…read morecan't believe I didn't know about this place," it's mostly because I am old and it is relatively new. I'm not out of the loop, I promise. That said, they have absolutely nailed the vibe. It is a welcoming, unique, incredibly cool, and comfortable coffee shop. The coffee was exactly the high-octane wake-up call I needed, and the biscuits and gravy were spectacular. The service here is top-tier--extremely friendly, fast, polite, and professional. If you are passing through town, make a detour and check it out. And if you currently live here and haven't been yet? You have no excuse.
