Kite & Key Cafe on Franklin

This is one of my favorite "mom and pop" places in Evansville. Ms. Jenny is absolutely amazing in the coffee shop. Her customer service is definitely why I keep coming back. I have had everything on the menu, and this place has never disappointed. My favorite however is the farmhouse breakfast

Kite & Key is as innovative with their homey mom & pop casual breakfast diner as Benjamin Franklin was for their namesake.

A concise yet rich menu offers a choice collection of breakfast items done well.

I enjoyed their traditional Eggs Ben(edict) while my mother had a delicious omelet. The two dishes we ordered were both obviously prepared with love. They nailed the hollandaise sauce on mine and kept her omelet light and fluffy. I tried their chorizo and potato soup of the day and found myself pleasantly surprised by it as well.

If you are looking for a place to stop in for breakfast - give them a try!

Been here several times in the past few years. It's mine and my wife's breakfast place for our breakfast dates. Food ranging from bacon and eggs to a chicken sandwich. Whole menu all day which is cool.

Problem with that, is the corned beef hash and eggs is my go-to so I don't try too much else. I'm hooked! Nice little cozy Cafe seats about 40-50. Coffee bar available as well. On nice warmer days we sit on the patio and enjoy the weather.

Waiter today went above and beyond running the front room like it's nothing. I have never had a bad experience here which is why I will keep coming back.

Their coffee bar around back is pretty happening. They take online orders also. Loved their chai latte.
It was easier to find seating outside instead of in the restaurant as it is a little small. Otherwise, I think it is fair on price to quantity.

Food is good for dine in. Carry out left much to be desired. Such as the rest of my meal that I paid for. Eggs Benedict was missing the sauce and the French toast was completely missing. Gave me the syrup for the meal but no meal. Terrible experience. The lady who checked me out was extremely friendly and a great conversationist but I guess that distracted from giving my whole meal.
What is supposed to be Traditional Eggs Benedict is pictured.

Absolutely wonderful! The food was delicious. The service was pleasant. The atmosphere was amazing. And the owner even came out from the back to sit with us and connect. Definitely a new favorite! #ShopLocal

Very good first time there today we had a group of 4 they were busy it's a very small place but man was there food so good! I enjoyed the country Ben which is a poached egg on top of biscuits and gravy with German potatoes our whole party enjoyed the German potatoes they were some of the best we have ever had! I can't wait to go back for breakfast!

Took my wife to Kite & Key for our anniversary (she wanted breakfast). The food was very good, wait time was short. I had the crepes and sausage, she had the Rise and Shine. Portions were generous, food tasted great. We definitely will come back.

The food is always GOOD. They were super busy today to it took longer than normal to get our food but it came out very hot and fresh.
The amount of time it took today was the oddity so it'll continue to be one of my favorite places.
Definitely give it a try if you haven't been!

Long-time customer here. Dined in for breakfast on Thursday 3.30.23 and we must say that the place has gone significantly downhill within the last 6months. I’ve seen mention of a new owner on here although I cannot confirm but would make sense. Waitress had attitude when she brought one of our orders wrong we were simply told that we didn’t have to eat it. We will not be back! Huge thumbs down and it looks like they’re losing customers fast. 😬
