Harry Potter would not be disappointed here!…read more The Ettlin's Cafe was probably one of the cutest spots I've been in a while for its own unique reasons! This cafe is found in a quiet spot in the town of New Prague. The restaurant gives off small town vibes but their special drink flights are spectacular! Now, of course we chose to visit this place for their Harry Potter themed drinks and I am so glad we did. This cafe actually creates 4 themed drink flights! 3 unique coffee flights - Harry Potter, Star Wars, & Peanuts, and 1 boozy Harry Potter themed flight. The presentation of these flights were gorgeous! Each one comes out in a beautiful wooden deco box with different themed Harry Potter stickers on the sides; as well a fun character toy brought to your table - we had both the Sorting Hat and Dobby. The booze flight also arrives with one drink aflame! There is a drink designed per-house. Majority of theme were delicious. The one set on fire did have a bit of an off-putting taste to it due to the flammable component drizzled over top. Besides this, the drinks were very nice. Not a fan of any of the themed flights? Don't worry, they have a regular mimosa flight for muggles as well On to the food. I chose to order the #3 From the Hen (2 eggs, choice of meat, hash browns, and toast). The food was absolutely delicious and extremely filling. Let me put you on one really quick.... The sausage is out of this world, the best I have had in years! I had a moment to sing my praises to the owner and he clued me in that they actually get their breakfast sausage from a local butcher near by! This all makes sense. The sausage was HUGE great flavor, thick and juicy in texture. It reminded me of a true German sausage. I would come back for that breakfast alone! All love to small businesses supporting small businesses! Overall really enjoyed my time here! If you haven't been out to try Ettlin's I might suggest adding it to your list!

Never heard of zelnicky? It's a type of cracker made with sauerkraut. Another customer told me they taste great with a glass of beer. I took his word for it and I suppose they do since the taste great if you like sauerkraut. Once my friend arrived, she chose a cronut to go along with her coffee. She had never tried one before and she raved how good it was! Before leaving, I bought a half dozen. She wasn't kidding...if you are in the New Prague area I'd highly suggest stopping in for pretty epic donuts but especially for cronuts! Wonderful bakery and coffee meet up place. Busy, diner counter and tables in a small town bakery. I highly recommend Lau's. Enjoy :)

There were lots of things I wanted to try on the menu and opted for the southwest bowl. It had a bit too many crunchy noodles on the top but other than that, it was really good and a nice refreshing summer dinner. Huge fresh avocado was a plus. Loved the glass my Sauvignon Blanc was served in. There was one server for all the tables and she did a great job. Impressive that she took our 8 drink orders without taking notes and got them all right. Great stop.

Highly recommend the half sandwich and soup- the beer cheese soup is the best I've had, so comforting every time. Everything is pretty affordable too, especially the large scoops of ice cream! There's a reason this place is beloved in Northfield and always full. From the cute handmade ice cream labels and the local artwork, to the photos on the bulletin board from around the world and cozy booths, and the ole/carl/townie tip jars, this place is the best and I always crave it when I'm away from Northfield!

The service was incredibly kind and welcoming, with the warmth you'd expect from a small-town business. The ambiance was exceptional--from the charming storefront to the inviting interior. They even had toys available for families with young kids, which was a thoughtful touch that didn't go unnoticed. And the food absolutely won me over. Every bite was packed with flavor, and everything was so tender it practically melted apart. It felt fresh, carefully prepared, and in a completely different league than the typical sandwich chains. Places like Subway simply can't replicate this experience. My only criticism would be the cleanliness of a few surfaces. The counter where I signed my receipt and our table were both noticeably sticky and seemed like they could have used a quick wipe-down. It was an area that stood out but certainly wasn't enough to keep me from coming back! Overall fabulous!!

Chef Pedro took our order (bonus points) and we had a lovely conversation about New Orleans. The menu here has a lot of New Orleans food intertwined. Based on where Pedro previously worked in New Orleans, he has an outstanding culinary background. I was going to order the Muffaletta, which can be served hot or cold, but they were out. When I heard why, I was impressed. In New Orleans, the gold standard of bread is Leidenheimer. Minnesota doesn't have the same bread (Trung Nam Bakery is the closest substitute). Pedro uses Leidenheimer for his Muffalettas. Pedro also makes his own olive salad. I am looking forward to trying a Muffaletta. My husband ordered the Zambon Dip and really enjoyed it. I had the Herb Brooks Focaccia. It was great. Big portions. What is really funny is I knew the North Stars as I worked at the Met Center. Fun memorabilia too. On street parking and some tables outside. What we used to call a neighborhood joint. Stop in and say hi to Pedro. Now I just wish he would make Gumbo with some okra and filé.
