That wasn't the case, the restaurant was packed. They serve breakfast all day and they serve many ethnic dishes like stuffed cabbage, pierogi, chicken paprikas and a co pretty good meatloaf. The portions were giant. With my meatloaf dinner I got 4 slices of meatloaf, mashed potatoes and a vegetable. You had you choice of soup or salad. I choose soup and had beef and barley. They also had chicken noodle. I will say if you are a noodle lover that is the soup for you, there was a mountain of noodles on each bowl. You also had a choice of the bread or rolls. I ended up taking 1/2 of my dinner home. It was so much food. The waitress we had was very nice and very attentive. We will definitely come back again.

Been here a few times, just now getting around to a review. Came in at 12:30 on a Friday afternoon…read morefor lunch. Was seated at a booth that was just vacated by the previous party. Outside of the bar, there wasn't an open seat in the joint. Was promptly served a Diet Pepsi and ordered the chicken Parmesan. The waitress was very friendly, fast and attentive. The chicken parm was a perfect size for lunch, and the whole meal was a bargain at $15. The chicken itself was very good, nice and crispy, though not overly cheesy or saucy. The side of spaghetti complemented it well, but the red sauce was more of a tomato topping than a spaghetti sauce. I'm not sure a side of sauce would have changed things, just very thick and not very saucy. The flavor was okay, and on par for a diner. Also got a side of the cucumber salad which was outstanding! Leaving was a bit challenging. There were several old biddies at the cash register selecting bakery items like kids in a candy store. Maybe they were there by design, as I ended up getting a raspberry coffee cake they had on the counter (which was very good). The place is cash only and I needed to make change to tip my waitress. By the time I got back to my table, there was someone already sitting there enjoying her coffee. Since there were only 2 waitresses, it wasn't hard to make sure my server got her just deserves for a job well done. The place was as crowded when I left at 1:00 as it was when I arrived. Also, I'm 60 years old and had to be the youngest in the place by about 20 years!

This is the best restaurant in the area and it's very reasonably priced. Seriously, the "Europa…read morePastry" is to die for. I've had most of the non-seafood entrees, and they're all stellar. The Brisket in cherry gravy is one of my all time favorites, very tender meat with a flavorful (but not overpowering) gravy. The Russian Schnitzel is my fiance's go to, the breading is crisp and tasty, the mushroom sauce is great, and the potatoes are probably the crispiest non- potato chip potatoes I've ever had. The stuffed cabbage is also very tasty and well-seasoned. For how good the entrees are, the appetizers are even better. Seriously, the Europa Pastry (brie, nuts, and berries in a puff pastry) is the best thing I've ever eaten, and we get it every time we go. The beef filled potato pancakes are pillowy and delicious, the chicken blinis are creamy and well seasoned, and the marinated herring is delightfully salty and tender (without being overly "fishy"). There have been numerous times we've just ordered a bunch of appetizers instead of entrees, they're all that good. All the desserts we've tried are excellent (and homemade), but the Napoleon is what we always come back to. Layers of buttery puff pastry with a delicious raspberry syrup (for FOUR DOLLARS!) It's also the only thing light enough to eat after all the other food. There's something at Europa for everyone, and the staff will make you feel right at home. A 10/10 if there ever was one.

Our friends enjoyed their meals but the menu options were few and far between for my taste. I ordered a tapa of the brie, pear and fig and I swear it was the same bread they drop off for the table with a morsel of pear divided among the 4 slices. Pitiful presentation.

My wife had the chicken schnitzel, perfectly prepared (not greasy) with mashed potatoes and vegetable medley. Finished with palacinke (Croatian crepes) filled with rose hip jam.

It's also much larger than I expected and has a lovely patio out front with lots of tables. They have a large food menu with typical cafe eats as well as dinner entrees. I came for lunch on a Friday and got a tiramisu iced coffee (very good), as well as a mushroom crepe. The crepe could have been a little hotter, but it was tasty and the drink was good. Can't wait to go back to try more drinks and pastries.

I arrived and met 3 friends here on a weekday morning in May 2026 to work. We (2 guys and 2 ladies)…read moreall work remote so it was fun to meetup. We all visited Cafe Blanc for the first time and loved our experience especially the large (free) parking lot. We sat on the 2nd level towards the back. QUICK REVIEW (read this if you don't want to read this whole review): Try the potato pancakes. Great food and service. Slightly more elevated cafe. Busy during peak morning/afternoon hours and most likely less busy in the evenings. I have not been in the evening yet. Free parking lot and free wifi. FOOD - there are lots of food options to choose from for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have sandwiches, salads, pizza, and pastries. I arrived around 10:20am so I wanted breakfast. I read that the croissants are okay but I haven't tried them. I ordered the potato pancakes, blueberry hibiscus tea (hot) as a dine-in order plus a slice of almond cake as a takeout order. The potato pancakes ($19) was delicious. It comes with 3 thick potato pancakes topped an egg on the center and with bacon bits spread all over. The potato pancakes also come with sour cream on the side which I didn't realize so I moved that to the side of my plate because I don't like or eat sour cream. I would order the potato pancakes again as a savory breakfast item but $19 is a little steep for the price. The blueberry hibiscus tea ($4) was a refreshing drink served on a mug. If you enjoy the combination of white tea leaves, rose hips, natural blueberry, and hibiscus then this tea is for you. I also ordered an almond cake slice ($6) but to go. The almond cake is a light and tasty cake with sliced/shaved almonds on top. SERVICE -- Friendly. Me and one of the shorter female employee had a nice laugh when I went down later in the day to order an almond cake. They started getting busy when I arrived after 10am on a weekday but I was able to walk right up to the front counter to order. The buzzer handed to me buzzed probably within 15-20 mins and I went down to get my order. I believe the tea that I ordered was ready first. Overall, I'll definitely be back. Prices are higher than a traditional cafe. The plus is that there is free wifi so it's a perfect spot to work on your laptop. The tables are big and the chairs are comfortable. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 99/250 total reviews in 2026 - 940 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 May 2026

The entrance was painted with a colorful mural, which took us into the bar. The restaurant had tables and booths but was a small area. We were lucky to have reservations because we were told at the bar there was a wait for seating. We did get seated immediately and were greeted by Sara M and she quickly brought our drinks. We tried the chicken paprikas, which had a lot of sour cream and dumplings that were thick and doughy. The yuengling bettered haddock dinner with fries was cooked perfect. The lobster bisque was served hot and was thick with lots of pieces of seafood. We ended with a piece of cherry pie that was served ice cold and was not homemade. The menu was large and diverse and we hope to try some of the Weekly Specials. Prices were average and some dinners offered a small plate at a lower price. Worth a try.

I wasn't sure where I wanted to go to breakfast this morning because the City of Willoughby (in…read moretheir infinite wisdom) decided to block off the entirety of downtown for a festival. So no one could reach the downtown businesses. So on my way home I came across "Cafe Europa and Bistro" in the Pineridge shopping plaza. It's a small storefront in the middle of the plaza, run by a European family - husband, wife, and son. When I walked in I was a bit surprised that the place was entirely empty because the parking lot was nearly full. The son greeted me warmly and told me to choose any table. He brought me water (spring water) and a menu. We chatted a little. I read the short, very to the point, breakfast menu. And settled on the "Healthy Breakfast". The young man was exceedingly friendly and kept up a running conversation the entire time. His mother was in the kitchen preparing my breakfast. And the entire thing took on a surreal feeling as if I was in the kitchen of their home as a guest. A marvelously fresh breakfast appeared very shortly thereafter and I began my breakfast, as the running conversation (admittedly a bit one sided) continued. An oversized mug of excellent coffee appeared quickly that really was excellent. Time flew by and before I knew it I was reading to leave. The young man asked if I would like a ginger shot, on the house before I left. I thanked him but said no. I paid my $16 bill and after a few pleasantries, departed. All in all it was an unusual experience. Excellent food, good service, nice people... but maybe a little too personal... maybe? I don't know. It was just different. I guess I would just say you should give it a try and see what you think.

Loved the staff! They were friendly with a great sense of humor while delivering impeccable service.read more

There were a bunch of regulars sitting at the counter and chatting it up with the servers. We grabbed a table and were greeted right away. The server checked on us often but didn't smother us. We also witnessed a lot of folks coming in to grab to-go orders. The menu is very simple and straightforward. They serve breakfast all day and lunch service begins at 11am. We both had breakfast. Between us, we had scrambled eggs with cheese, eggs fried over-medium, bacon, French toast, pancakes and potatoes. Everything was decent. I wished that the cheese had been cooked into the scrambled eggs and allowed to melt, but that was okay. Also, the texture of the breakfast potatoes were like mashed potatoes that had been smashed and burned on the flattop grill. We weren't a fan of those. Overall, the place was cute and quaint and the staff was friendly. Everything was priced very reasonably as well. Also, anywhere you can find the locals at is usually a good sign!
