Looking for a place to grab a bite that reminds you of Perkins but isn't? The Village Inn is the place to go. The menu is extensive. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, there are plenty of options at a good value. I ordered the grilled fish with rice and broccoli. It was just as you'd expect--good, but not outstanding. Like Perkins, a trip to the Village Inn offers plenty of choices, decent food, experienced wait staff, reasonable prices, and no surprises. What's not to like? read more

Village Inn - Grilled fish with rice and broccoli. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Moorhead, Minnesota

do not go here at 5pm on a weekday unless you have 2 hours to kill. they gave us our drinks as we were being seated. our server took our order and never saw her again until an hour and half later and by that time we were ready to leave without ever getting our food. I like this restaurant but can not handle how dysfunctional they are sometimes if they are busy. the only time I can get decent service is during an off hour when im the only one there. unreal. read more

Went to Village Inn 3 times in the last week while staying at a nearby hotel. Breakfasts were great, but the service was exceptional! The last day I was there I was asking if they could do one of the eggs benedict with ham and one with avocado, and the server suggested I could also get crazy and have ham and avocado on BOTH! My folks also love free pie Wednesdays. read more

A CLASSIC, frequently patronized spot by staff at my office in Moorhead. Rarely did you NOT find someone unable to resist their pies, and the rest of the menu always have pleased a crowd! The staff, for lack of better description possibly, always kind of that "classic," Minnesota-Nice type great caring and service that can be lost in some service workers- it seems a MUST for the lovely ambiance- casual and pleasing and typically QUICK (especially facing a lunch hour time limit for our ladies lunching from the office ha) read more

Food and service were great! The turkey is so juicy and flavorful, ofc the pancakes are great.

Incredibly fast, great and friendly service, reasonably priced and good. Highly recommend

The food was amazing friendly staff, and the cooks were on point. Highly recommend this place for good food and great service.

There is great service at Moorhead's Village Inn and I'm really happy it's open evenings again. Waitstaff upbeat and likeable. I love the turkey avacado club sandwich. They make perfect over-easy eggs, too. People clearly come for the pies and Pie Wednesday is a treat. read more

Yes yes yes!! The food is so delicious the strawberry crepe is too die for!! I would highly recommend to family and friends

I am surprised that this place gets reviewed poorly. It has always been a great place for me and my family to go out to eat. It's nothing too fancy, but it's somewhat akin to Perkins. However the service is always great and quick. I don't recall ever waiting too long, even when it's packed. The food itself is pretty decent. Nothing mind blowing but it's still good for the price and the time we wait for it. All in all this has been a favorite of mine for breakfast dates. Don't let the 2 and below star reviews fool you. read more

Very good and quick meal! Good coffee and omelettes! Very prompt service too! Will come back

I love Village Inn. Good food, good service! Their strawberry crepes are the best but I love their pancakes too! I'm a breakfast person so I can only comment on those types of foods. read more

I have been coming to this place for special events for the last couple years. The food was burnt and I found blueberry in my chocolate chip pancakes. It felt like there's was only 2 waiters for the whole restaurant, the servers forgot my hash browns and straws. The surroundings were very loud, there was a family that was talking really loudly. Other than those things the food is great. read more

The food was great, the service was good. But the waitress did no know the food. I asked if the rice pilaf had any pasta or wheat products in it and she said no, just rice. Well, like most restaurant rice pilaf, this did, indeed have pasta in it. I cannot eat wheat products, so I had to toss half of my dinner. I've tried repeatedly to contact the manager to bring it to their attention. It's an important fact that they need to be aware of. The phone is constantly busy. I'm guessing they don't even take phone calls. read more

A nice general family restaurant. clean, quiet.., moderate price; I especially like the half- price pecan and lemon merengue pie on Wednesda... I called ahead on the hours and phone answered immediately; I found the waitress efficient and nice to visit with a bit. I'm glad Covid is over, you can find help, and hopefully soon you'll be able to be open after 7 pm. we miss the Village Inn in Fargo, which is nearer to our home. read more

Service....waiter had dirty clothes. He did not refill water the whole time. The Egg serving was small. The fruit was preripe in the yogurt granola. The wait was long. The turkey sausage was like leather. The huevos rancharos had hash browns like a cookie. The flour tortilla was dried out and broke apart. Tables were dirty. Guy in next table complained due to a wire bread tie in his pancake. The to go pie we ordered came back on a plate. Need I say more. read more

So today I ordered village inn with a friend from DoorDash they gave us expired butter the bacon looked weird the pancakes we ordered were good but I'm not sure if I would order from here again but you never know if it wasn't a good day for them. read more

Village Inn - Butter - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Moorhead, Minnesota

We were told 40 minutes until our table was ready. We went and sat in the car for 20 minutes because the lobby was full and it was cold outside. Went back in and they said they called our name and we didn't show so they moved us to the bottom of the list. When we told them it had only been 20 minutes, they said sorry, that's the way it works. We online had 3 in our party. Unacceptable. read more

I bring my family here often and I love the environment, super cozy and friendly staff. They are always busy on the weekends but it's worth the wait. read more

Love going to breakfast at village inn! The food is always hot and the service is great.

Party of three. One egg and pancakes with extra butter, one eggs Benedict with extra hollandaise sauce, and one open-faced beef sandwich. Food arrives, no extra butter for the pancakes, my beef sandwich and French fries and one eggs Benedict minus the hash browns that come with but accompanied by an extra English muffin and the requested extra hollandaise. The server assumed that since my husband requested that the English muffin on the bottom of the eggs Benedict be buttered, that he didn't want the hash browns. She took away the extra English muffin and about 10 minutes later brought the hash browns. I had the beef sandwich. The menu description made it sound just like it would be a hot beef sandwich. Bread, beef, gravy and mashed potatoes. Nope, I got a couple of slices of beef on grilled bread with a dollop of brown gravy and French fries. The server came by once after taking our orders to ask if I wanted beef or turkey. She came by again to ask if I wanted mashed potatoes. By this point, she has been to our table 5 or 6 times. I had to ask for the extra butter, again. She brings it right out. It's about a teaspoon of butter in a little cup, not nearly enough for one pancake. The server proceeds to tell us that she spoke to the manager and the cook and everything has been taken care of. One would think that she meant that maybe something was deducted off the bill. Nope, don't really know what she meant by that statement. Our server was very friendly but she must have been new. I know she wasn't having a bad day as she told us her day had been good so far. read more

It's a nice quiet place to eat and it's clean. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing. The food was good and the TVs were nice to watch.

As always the food was great and usually the waiters/waitresses' are awesome but not tonight. If you get Tanner plan to ask another waiter/waitress for re-fills on your drinks, you're empty dishes to pile up on your table and the extra topping you asked for when you ordered your meal is forgotten then your told they'll bring it out in a bit but it never appears. (that could be the cooks fault) I always leave a tip no matter what, however I'll leaving the minimum with service like this. read more

Just wanted a ham and cheese omelette, not toast or pancakes or anything else just the omelette please. "Sorry but we have to charge you for the hash browns and pancakes". Really??? I can't just have an omelette without paying for a ton of stuff I'm not going to eat?? Food wasn't bad but you couldn't deduct a buck or two because I didn't want to eat a huge meal for breakfast? So I paid $12 for an omelette. Find a good local place and go there instead. read more

This place is not known for crepes, i ordered one and the whole thing tastes like it was a couple of days old. Yuck, try ihop this is where you can enjoy a delicious crepe. read more

Stay away. It's disgusting. The table smelled like musty mop water and my "music star" omelet resembled what was left of the Big Bopper after the plane crash. This is the type of place that I stay in to see how bad it could possibly be. It was worse than I imagined. It was in the same parking lot as the hotel I stayed in so I have it a shot for breakfast. I mean, who screws up breakfast? Well this place does. Yuck. Nasty don't do it. I took one for the team to help YOU! read more

Wifi overloaded so I couldn't get on. Plastic in the salad. Gave the star I did because it's pretty hard to mess up strawberry rhubarb pie. So 1 out of 5 if your looking for ok pie. read more

Probably a 1.5 star experience. I stopped to pickup a pie. Manager almost seemed put out to answer any questions about the pies much less sell one to me. Will I return to this location? Probably not. What is it about the poor service in the upper Midwest? read more

The only reason why I'm giving a 2 star review is the waitress we had. It wasn't even her section but after seeing us sit there for more than 10 minutes without anyone even taking our drink order she decided to help us. Even the manager walking around ignored us. Then my soda was flat, completely flat. It took almost 40 minutes to get our food and at that point we were not expecting much. Good thing too because the food was fair at best. Very disappointing. read more

Wen't there for early Veteran Days breakfast. Great service and great food and very clean.

I eat here often, especially when I was in college. They have the best combo for breakfast that isn't at any other family restaurants. Everyone who has been my server has seemed decent, and I haven't had any issues with this restaurant. read more

Always a bit wary of a new place since dh must eat gluten free. They were quite helpful and willing to make changes to the items included in his breakfast to make it a safe experience. Food wasn't spectacular but it was good. Service from our server, Shawn, was very good. read more

Horrible service. We sat on the chairs, which are up against the booths on the entry area. And waited 20 minutes to be sat at the empty booth behind us. Our server didn't even talk to us until our food was brought to us, someone else ended up getting us drinks and ordered our food cause we had to stop someone after waiting for 15 minutes. e burnt coffee. The server even said that nobody likes it when they order it. Why is it on the menu then?!? Go to the one in Fargo instead, much better service! read more

American food with generous portions and breakfast is served all day. They also sell pies. This place is pretty similar to Perkins. The decor is very cute and must have been recently updated. read more

We stopped in around 6pm for dinner, 2 adults and 2 kids. We were seated quickly in a comfortable booth near the window. We have eaten at several Village Inns before however it had been several months. Upon reviewing the menu we noticed that it looks like they have slimmed down their dinner selections which was disappointing. We ended up getting chicken finger dinners and both kids got Mac n Cheese. The food was OK, it came fairly quickly and was warm. The service on the other hand left a lot to be desired. We asked for additional sauce for our chicken right when it was delivered since they are skimpy on sauce quantity, the waitress never came back and checked on us until we were almost done and never brought the sauce, when we asked for it again she shrugged her shoulders with a "deal with it" attitude. She did eventually bring the sauce, but so much later we didn't finish our food. Now the reason people come here THE PIE! I would love to review the pie however they were "sold out" of every type of pie that we found interesting. Lastly the bathrooms were quite gross. The entire inside had been remodeled except somehow they forgot the bathrooms. Not only were they outdated and didn't match the decor of the restaurant but they were actually very dirty. Overall one of the more disappointing visits I've had in a while. read more

Ugh!!AVOID these places. The food taste processed and old, if your lucky you'll get a server that actually likes their job, watch out for hostesses they ones we've had are unfriendly and rude.The last few times we've eaten there we've asked to be seated in a booth and we've been told they can't. Only to find they seated other customers in the seats we had requested. We won't be going to Village Inn anytime soon. No body likes being treated like they're an inconvenience. read more

Very good food and friendly staff. Love free pie Wednesday. Would highly recommend the All World Double Cheesburger.

Terrible. Took 20 minutes to get our food. When it came, finally, it was luke-warm at best. Eggs way over done, and the gravy had about a half inch skin on it. Don't eat here. read more
