Good portions, good quality, and good service. Solid neighborhood cafe with breakfast and lunch options. Coffee flights and desserts.
We came here twice within a week because the first visit was so good we had to come back. The vibe is very cozy cafe style small seating area, but it fits the atmosphere perfectly. Our first visit was on a Tuesday and we got seated right away. The first thing I noticed was how friendly and attentive the staff was. They kept things moving without making anyone feel rushed. The food came out fast and looked amazing. One of the servers recommended the Hangover Omelet, and it did not disappoint. At one point my pregnant wife accidentally spilled orange juice all over her plate, and what I'm assuming was the manager immediately came over, replaced everything, and made us feel completely comfortable about it. Super welcoming service. We came back the following Monday and it was much busier with a different staff. We had to wait a bit, which was understandable, but the manager that day came across a little cold and seemed bothered that we waited inside instead of outside (we honestly didn't notice any sign). That said, our waitress was fantastic very friendly and attentive. She recommended the weekly special wet breakfast burrito and WOW... it was incredible. Honestly, it should become a permanent menu item because I'd come back just for that. The food here is absolutely worth it and easily 5-star quality. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was the experience with the manager on the second visit. I live far from here but if I'm in the area I'll definitely come back.
Down here helping our daughter get ready for her wedding and we were all hungry for breakfast. We found this gem of a place. Prices are very reasonable and the portions are very hefty. Service is friendly and continuous without being intrusive. I got the international omelette that came with hashbrowns. The omelette was cooked perfectly. Had plenty of ingredients in it including plenty of meat. My daughter got the chorizo burrito and she loved it. My other daughter got the lemon blueberry pancakes, and she ate all of it. My wife got an omelette that was cooked to her liking. We sat outside in the summer morning and enjoyed it. We definitely would come back here if in town and had the time.
Service was good, pretty prompt on bringing out their food, the presentation was a little crazy but the food was great! Usually when I come here it's good! I can't complain! And it's a Christian cafe such a plus in this crazy world! Loved the music playing in the background!
This was a neighborhood diner. We chose to eat outside on a beautiful Saturday morning at 11:30 AM. The waitress was absolutely amazing. It was my 1st time eating here. We had a party of 4. The food was good/ not great but good. The breakfast potatoes came out burnt , so we had to send those back. My toast was incorrect. They gave me sourdough instead of white toast. The cinnamon roll was delicious. Everyone in my party enjoyed their food. Not sure if we would return ; however, it is a cute spot to go eat outside and enjoy the weather. Side note: (No toilet paper in the restroom) (Plenty of street parking)
the red hair host lady was not very nice at all , i sat at the bar top service was slow , literally took 20 mins for my drink order , my server didn't seem friendly whats so ever !!! i went to the bathroom and found this bug in the bathroom...... i told a male worker about it he ignored me and walked away from me , i am very unhappy with my experience here ! i hope the owners see my yelp and check the cameras because i noticed they have more than 20 installed
I love Cornbeef hash but the one here wasn't really to my liking. I do not like peppercorn and definitely not in my Cornbeef hash. I also like it with rice, not an option here. It was ok. I'll have to try something else when I go back. Omelette was a 3/5 goo but not great. Pancakes were 4/5. Id come back for that. The cinnamon roll was next level. 6/5, it was that good. Cold brew flight was ok. Nothing to write home about . Service was top notch. Busser, Host, Server were on it. I never set foot inside because I sat outside. I'm still salivating over that cinnamon roll and tempted to go back right now. Thank you for a good experience. See you soon.
Village Cafe on Viking Way is a quaint, classic diner. A place where you know the food is going to be good when you see that table of retired guys over in the corner solving all of the world's problems over breakfast. The California Omelet that had bacon and Ortega chilies and its delicious. The American breakfast with a nice thick slice of ham is also fantastic. Our friendly server recommended a Big County Skillet. We quickly understood why this was a popular order. The gravy came on the side, and it's great to choose how much to use and it's tasty. The Cinnamon Roll is also highly recommended. Expect a crowd, but go get a table, sit down and enjoy. Friendly staff.
The pancakes here are so light and fluffy and delicious!!! Located in the cutest, quaint downtown area. We were seated quickly in first available outside - but they had space heaters for each table so it was perfect! Our server Olivia was the sweetest and super helpful and attentive. We will be back soon!! Gingerbread chai latte was sooooo tasty! Mimosas and Bloody Marys are super reasonably priced as well!
If you're looking for a breakfast spot that not only serves delicious, healthy food but also treats you like family the moment you walk through the door -- look no further. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with genuine smiles and warm hellos. The staff here remember your name, your favorite order, and even ask how your day is going -- it's like visiting family (the kind that cooks amazing food!). The menu is packed with fresh, wholesome options -- think avocado toast done right, smoothie bowls that taste as good as they look, and hearty scrambles loaded with local veggies. And somehow, they manage to make it all feel indulgent without any guilt. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a neighborhood vibe that makes you want to linger a little longer over your coffee. It's clear the owners care deeply about community, health, and good food -- and it shows in every detail. Whether you're stopping in after a workout, grabbing a bite with friends, or just treating yourself to a solo breakfast date, this place hits the spot every time. Do yourself a favor and check it out. Places like this are rare -- and once you find it, you'll never want to let it go.
Time and time again this place amazes me! I absolutely LOVE The Village Cafe. . Wish I knew about them sooner. Go check out this cute little cafe with great customer service and great food! I promise you won't be disappointed. I will let you know that there just might be a wait when you go, but don't be discouraged... wait patiently for a delicious meal and service with a smile. I love that they are on top of everything. I've never had to wave someone down to ask for a refill nor a togo box.. So go show them some love & thank me later Oh & I can't forget ... if you go on the weekends, the Chile Verde omelette special is out of this world!!!
This little gem has become our "Sister's Hangout". The decor is constantly beautifully designed. The food is always tasty and on point. And the staff is always great, fast and friendly.

I was looking for a yummy breakfast and this place did NOT disappoint. Late Sunday, noonish, there was no wait time. It's a small place. We sat in a booth that was comfortable and clean. I liked that it was set with napkins, condiments, and creamers for coffee. You take what you need and I didn't have to be asking for the items. We ordered the American breakfast, the California omelet, the Duke, and blueberry pancakes. They were very good portions. We ended up bringing home some food. But not the blueberry pancakes that were absolutely delicious! The peach ice was very good too! We sat and immediately our drink order was taken followed by our food. I was surprised at how fast the food came out. I could see the hot steam coming from the food as well as the pancakes. This was great because I don't like cold food! The service was great! A young lady, granddaughter to the owner we serving us. She was super nice and bubbly. She came twice to ask how the food was and made sure we didn't need anything. She shared how the jams were homemade and the lady that made them. It was a good experience and all the food was delicious. Definitely coming back to this eatery. read more

Food and service were great! A must to try their pancakes! I love how they are fluffy and not overly sweet read more
Found this place by happy accident. Was being taken out to a birthday lunch and we were supposed to go to Dilly's. Dilly's is closed on Mondays. My friend said let's go to this place a couple of doors down. Lucky for me. We went in and were seated immediately. The bus guy, Rudy took our drink orders. I wanted iced tea and asked if they had any special iced teas. Rudy recommended the peach iced tea and steered me in the right direction. It was very tasty and refreshing. My friend who was taking me out for my birthday lunch was so happy, as was I, to see a beefeater sandwich on the menu. I love a good beefeater, especially if it has Ortega chili on it. One of us ordered a Reuben and one of us ordered the beefeater and we split them. We got coleslaw and french fries for the sides. The sandwiches were delicious although I took most of my Reuben half home just because I was stuffed. My friend didn't like the coleslaw, but I did. It was kind of sweet and I might have tasted a hint of pineapple. My friend noticed that the last cinnamon roll was in the case on the counter. We ordered it. Our wonderful waitress, Gina warm it up for us. It was a great finish to a great meal. There's plenty of seating inside. The restaurant is cute, the staff work well together and there's a nice vibe. read more

Everything about this place is great- the service, the quality of the food, the ambience and the cleanliness of the restaurant. Lots of great options on their menu. The homemade Chilli is delicious and their medium salsa is also really good. The burger is huge and the patty is perfectly seasoned and juicy. Our server Gina was super nice and very attentive. Great place for breakfast and lunch. P.s try a cinnamon roll! read more
