Cafe the Lodge

The food was really good, fresh and flavorful, usually when you go to a dinner to eat breakfast you taste the oil and greasiness of the food. But this one is an exception, freshly made with herbs and just right amount of seasoning. The restaurant is clean and the staff are so nice and accommodating! Would definitely come back!!

Very nice place to stop for a relaxed, casual breakfast. The pancakes were deliciously light and fluffy, the scrambles eggs were perfectly soft and creamy. The dining room is open and inviting and the outdoor seating area is beautiful and serene. My wife and I look forward to exploring the full menu.

Fantastic, great atmosphere. Legendary Cuban sandwich. Cool art too!

Was coming through town and gave it a try. Breakfast for all 3 of us was absolutely amazing. Honestly one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the bagel and cheese for my sandwich was very fresh. You have to try this place out! All staff were wearing masks during COVID times and were following precautions.

Actually one of my bus stops is almost in front of the cafe. Everyone I've ever chatted with from there seemed polite. Tried a breakfast there over 2 yrs ago, if I recall was pricy.. Still appears well organized, some unusual menu choices. There was sense of politics about here that can distract from only enjoying the meal. Otherwise quite nice bldg. Its Right next to the dedicated South Side fire company. Our heros, tough job

I love this place!!!! The staff is very friendly and the food is amazing! They have a great selection of breakfast and lunch options with daily specials. Be sure to try the soup! I also enjoy all of the different rooms to eat in. The artwork adds individual character to each setting. The outside patio area is calm and beautiful. I always leave happy!

First time there. My girl and I went. I got the Lumberjack with peppers, onions, and mushrooms with hashbrowns. The food was delicious. Cooked to perfection and every bite told me how fresh the ingredients were. The presentation blew me away. It almost got me to take a pic of my plate and post it which I swore never to do. Staff was very friendly and the decor was cool. When the weather warms up will definitely be eating on the patio. Total price for 2 was $20! Great food at a great price and a worthy cause. Will definitely be back regularly. Check it out.

I absolutely love Cafe the Lodge. not only is it a good service an opportunity for the community and its support of individuals recovering from drug and alcohol addiction, but it's also a great place to get delicious food and coffee. The staff are all extremely friendly and helpful, but sometimes the service is a bit slow. If you're eating in, just be ready to wait a bit for your food and enjoy the time that you get to sit. Very European!

Nice little cafe: tasty food, pleasant service, beautiful outdoor seating with shade, pond, umbrellas.

My family and I had my Aunt's surprise birthday brunch here. All went well. We were able to reserve a back room for the event. The staff are very nice people. Their outside porch area is quite something- flowers, a fish pond, artwork, bench, etc. It would be a good place for mindfulness or yoga haha.
