I visited Schoolhouse Seven Café on Saturday morning and ordered a brown sugar and cinnamon chai…read morelatte with oat milk, and it was delicious. The space itself is what appears to be an old schoolhouse, and it's incredibly warm and welcoming inside. There's a great mix of seating on the first floor, including community seating near a fireplace, smaller tables, and larger tables for groups. I noticed there's also an upstairs area that I didn't explore, but even just the main level felt homey and comfortable. It's definitely a spot I'd come back to for getting out of the house to work, bringing a laptop, or even meeting friends for a casual coffee date. The vibe is very cozy and inviting, and the staff was friendly and kind. The menu is thoughtfully curated, not overwhelming, but still offers a nice variety of syrups and flavors. My only small wish is that there were more loose-leaf tea options beyond black and green tea, but that didn't take away from the experience. Overall, this was a fantastic visit and a café I'd happily return to.

There are many things to like about this place. They go hardcore for their concept (school themed…read morefor the one room schoolhouse), which is a definite win. And at least for the holiday season, the interior looks incredibly cozy and inviting. If you have nowhere to go for a few hours, it would be a nice place to hang out and chat with friends. However, the coffee is fine, not spectacular. And the wait on the Tuesday morning I stopped by was about 25 minutes. Maybe it was quicker in the drive thru, but then you'd miss out on the decorations. Overall, it's a cute enough place to stop by on a day off for a leisurely morning, but I don't know that I would make a special trip.

A few weeks ago, I invited my best friend out to breakfast for her birthday. I was leaving for…read moreFlorida that evening, but her birthday fell on that specific day. Since I would miss the activities planned for later that week, we both carved out some time to have a small celebration with just the two of us. It was one of those moments that is good for the soul. Every good story needs a great setting. And the context of our story took place at Lincoln Square in Fortville. It was the perfect middle point between our two homes, so it seemed only natural. I had never been to this location. The birthday girl ordered the decadent Banana Bread French Toast. It is topped with fresh banana slices, pecans, caramel sauce and cinnamon whipped butter! I mean, Jesus, take the wheel! I went with a classic Western omelet. You can tell a lot about a place by how they cook the classics. And Lincoln Square did it right. Plus, my omelet came with hash browns and my choice of toast, pancakes, a biscuit or French toast. I felt like it was my final meal before walking the Green Mile! Everything was delicious. We went a little late for most breakfast crowds, so the diner wasn't very busy. Either way, we had great service and the staff were all very kind. I had the feeling that even if they had been busy, you would still be given excellent service with a smile. Like my coffee mug reminded me, every sip counts. I feel like that is a mantra Lincoln Square holds dear. Side note: I am new Yelper, and I am still trying to get a hang of this taking picture of everything deal. How do you guys do it? Do you ask permission first? I took some pictures of the restaurant and the outdoor signage before going inside. Yet, before I could even get to the front door, the manager came outside to meet me and asked if everything was alright. I explained I was working on a Yelp review, and he was very kind. But it got my heart racing. Can someone educate me on the proper Yelp photo etiquette, please?? TIA

This discovery was a recommendation from a friend who said this was the place for biscuits and…read moregravy since 1989. It is a nice sized place with a kitchen counter for singels to dine at if they are busy. Seemed like a good amount of locals enjoying a late Monday breakfast. It's large spacouce, and I can see it being slammed on the weekend. Their coffee cups are nice and large, which I sure saves the staff. The coffee itself is great. The only drawback is that the creamers were prepacked. That is common but my one note for improvement if the owners are on social. The staff is aaa freindly, good recommendations. And engaged.

My husband and I went to Waffle House for lunch. This was my first time eating at a Waffle House…read morerestaurant and I am not looking forward to returning. This restaurant was small, cramped, and dirty. When we entered there were several tables and booths available but they all had food on the table or on the floor, so we sat at the counter. I ordered the chocolate chip waffle while my husband ordered the sausage, egg and cheese hashbrown bowl. The food was very standard. There was nothing special about this Waffle House. The servers were very business-like and not particularly friendly. I hope that this experience is not indicative of other locations.

However, once we found out this one was less than 10 minutes away, we were quick to go check! It's definitely not as big as a normal location (at least it doesn't feel that way). However, it doesn't seem to stop the crew in there from getting folks in, served with a smile, served some great food, and on their way. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in. It took only a few minutes before a few seats opened up at the bar top and began enjoying our breakfast. Will definitely be back!

This place has been a hit with my "21+" family due to the great food, great location, and usually good service. Minors are not allowed. Our most recent visit yesterday had less than awesome service but maybe she was having a bad day. The building is old with lots of wood paneling ... very comfy. There are several other wonderful restaurants in Fortville which is great for me as I have several choices. I never would have guessed that this tiny suburb would have such epic cuisine!
