What a lovely breakfast spot! Fun, upbeat vibe and great decor. Makes you feel at home and relaxed. Good was plentiful and main breakfast dishes very tasty and no problem adding or taking away ingredients when ordering. Have to say tho, the biscuits, tho huge were somewhat dry and flavorless. Kind of reminded me of Bisquick drop biscuits. We'd go back to try more breakfast options. Great place to gather. Mimosas too!
We were in town for a wedding and ended up eating here for breakfast two days in a row! The interior was an adorable farmhouse style, very bright and inviting. The mimosas were TO DIE FOR get the blueberry lavender, you won't regret it! and everything we ate was incredible. I had the Chicken Fried Chicken the first time, and it was huge. The meat was juicy and the gravy was delicious smothered over the biscuit. And cheesy grits on the side? Yes Please! Our server, Madalyn, was an absolute doll and she took great care of us. She was so kind and welcoming we had to go back and see her again! I got the French Toast Extreme the second day and holy cow it was awesome thank you Madalyn and the Southern Cafe for such a filling, delicious, and lovely breakfast experience. We are looking for another reason to come to St Charles just so we can try more of this spectacular menu!
We came in at around 12 on a Saturday as a party of 6. We were sat upstairs at a 12 person table. The waitress was busy and was good, but kept walking away when we were asking for something. I don't blame her, it was loud. The kitchen was jamming so things were moving a bit slow, but the food was really good. The mimosas are also really good, but are $10 a pop the price isn't listed on the half menu there wasn't a flavor we didn't like. The biscuits are good, the country gravy even better. The nasty biscuit was a nice mix and a huge serving. The coffee was good ol diner coffee. The building itself is unique and a fun vibe. The floors can be very slippery but the tile is very pretty. The bathrooms need some help. They look pretty at glance but the door for the stalls is just a piece of wood that locks into another piece of wood with a bolt there's no catch plate for it the soap dispenser was broke , and the roll of paper towels was just sitting on the counter, with the mirror leaning against the wall. It was just weird, and was not super clean. I'm not sure how the men's room was. Parking: The parking lot for this place is a shared parking lot, but the parking lot is poorly planned and you can have trouble finding parking near the restaurant at peak hours. It shares a lot with a drive through which caused a couple close calls.
Please understand that these are only my pinions, but I have been to MANY breakfast spots so I’ve seen everything! First the good points: -The decor has a sweet country vide. White wash and white paint with country charm items hanging in the wall. -Portions are HUGE Two people could easily eat from one plate. Even the silver dollar pancakes the table next to us had were ENORMOUS -Mimosa’s had lots of choices of flavors Not So Good: -Food lacked much flavor. -The pancakes while huge, but were doughy and not that good -The biscuits were dry and crumbly -The sausage gravy had pieces of gristle that you couldn’t chew. Overall is was a cute place, but we were disappointed.
We were very pleased with the service and value/quality of food both times we have been here! The coffee was decent, but a little overpriced for the quality of it. The iced teas are amazing! The food came out super fast and hot! Great flavor and taste! The nasty biscuit has the chicken in it and the breading on it, is just amazing! This is definitely a must see!
Yummy! We enjoyed our breakfast. Everything came out exactly the way we ordered it. Food was warm/hot upon making it to our table. The spinach and feta omelette was tasty - added tomatoes. Fruit was fresh. Biscuit was warm. The chicken fried chicken was packed with flavor, served hot, and plenty to bring home. Coffee was flavorful and also hot. Thoroughly impressed. I’d like to come back soon.
Friendly waitstaff and delicious food. The restaurant was not too busy and had lots of room for sit in service. They serve really good coffee of varying types and are fully equipped as a cafe. I had the dark raspberry chocolate coffee and it was fantastic. They have "eggs your way" on the menu so some things you may see in the pictures are not on the menu and do not have a name.
Come hungry. The food is great and the portions massive. The staff is hit or miss. Two times we were there we they waitstaff was amazing, friendly and very professional. The other time I think our waiter was new and the couple of times we asked one of the other waiters for something they were totally hands off.
Definitely a go to for breakfast from now on! When all the others want you to wait for 45 minutes for uninspired eggs, why not get some biscuits and gravy, stuffed with a chicken breast? Good food, served hot and a lot. Will be back!Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: No
Excellent food and great atmosphere. Clean, and multi-level seating breaks up noise level and adds a level of intimacy/privacy to your experience. Pics are biscuits and gravy and a stacked and loaded Greek bread french toast.Food: 5/5
