Tucked into the heart of the charming little town of Calico Rock--where Main Street still feels…read morelike a scene from a simpler time--you'll find a local gem that's well worth the detour: The Printing Press Café. This cozy spot is everything you want in a small-town café--warm, welcoming, and filled with the kind of smells that make you wish biscuits counted as a food group (and here, they just might). Housed in what was once the town's original newspaper office, the café beautifully blends history with hospitality. While you wait for your food, you can browse vintage photos and clippings that tell the story of Calico Rock's past--think of it as breakfast with a side of nostalgia. Now let's talk food--specifically the biscuits and gravy. Mercy. Fluffy, golden biscuits smothered in rich, peppery gravy that's clearly made with love (and maybe a bit of magic). It's the kind of dish that makes you close your eyes after the first bite. The rest of the menu is solid comfort food done right--generous portions, great flavor, and prices that'll make your wallet just as happy as your stomach. Add to that a staff that treats you like family (the kind you actually want to see), and you've got yourself a true small-town treasure. If you're passing through Calico Rock--or heck, even remotely nearby--make sure to stop in. The Printing Press Café isn't just a meal, it's an experience with heart, history, and heavenly gravy.

Usually, they would get a much better review but after tonight, I am rethinking my choices…read more I showed up at 6:35 to order two sandwiches. They close at 8 pm. I was blown away after walking in and seeing them removing all the utensils. What the hell are they doing putting away the utensils and hour and a half before they close? In any case, they proceeded to make my sandwiches without any utensils. I ordered shredded chicken. Both sandwiches. So, yes, they both used their hands to scoop the chicken onto the bread. I told them light mayo on my mom's sandwich, which they got right. And then I said I wanted regular mayo on my sandwich. The woman proceeded to squeeze 1/4 of the bottle of mayo onto my sandwich, LITERALLY. I looked at her like, what the hell did I do to you? She then started removing the mayo, with her finger. I stood there, in shock at the audacity. I am not sure if this is the way they act at home or on what planet this is acceptable behavior but then to be charged full price and not even given an apology for the spectacle of their actions, is just, reprehensible. I should have walked out of there, not paid for any food and just walked away but if you know Melbourne, you know there isn't many choices here. In any case, I am absolutely APPALLED at what I just witnessed and to think this is par for the course, is just unacceptable. My name is Cinamon and I want them to know that I wrote this review. As I told them I was going to. This is NOT acceptable behavior, for ANY public establishment but especially food. An hour and a half before they close? Get REAL!!! I am really hoping the people that showed up after me did not get treated this way. ABSOLUTLEY APPALLING!!!

Both were good and came out quickly. We asked for salt and pepper, we were given handfuls ( overkill). A fork was in the bag, no knife. Two containers of salad dressing, that was plenty. My e-gift card could not be used, they had no system to accept it, even though they are part of the Mileage Plus United system. This was extremely frustrating! I would go again or carry out again. It was about 8:00pm and they were cleaning one side and putting up chairs on the tables. If I were dining in, I would find that loud and annoying. Their hours were till 9:00pm. For those two annoying things I've given them a 3 star. Their food was good but nothing difficult or exceptional. Better than many fast food places.
