Corner Café

2 words. Swisher Slammer. This place has the biggest yummiest breakfast we’ve ever had!! Definitely one to share! As you can see, it makes my little girl very happy to go there 🤣😋

Don’t blink, because you probably missed it! This café is right on the corner of and Street across from sheets in downtown Parkersburg and right by Matheny motors. If you have ever been to pointe Park you’ve passed right by this gem! Though it has a modern look this particular spot is chock-full of history and it’s written all over their walls. The food is everything you would expect from home town café… dependable and delicious! He probably also never heard of this place because they don’t advertise a lot and they don’t have to they’re local following is pretty large with loyal customers.

This is the kind of place you go and order “over medium eggs” and they know exactly how to cook them every single time, perfectly. Their BLTs are incredible and their homemade pies are unbelievable.

Pay special attention to the specials menu because every one of them is exactly as stated: special.

Today we came for breakfast, as always, literally everything was perfect… and again, as always, everything came out quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend their loaded potatoes.

I have included photos of the store hours as well as the menu. As a bonus I’ve included some of the photos of the building and its historic evolution! So cool!

The menu and the waitstaff are at odds with one another. If the menu says you can pick 2 or three… the waitstaff will tell you that you can only pick 1 or 2 and force the other option upon you. Our waitress was very very sporadic and would not let us speak without her interrupting us. The food was fast but bland. Overall it was a frustrating ‘meh’ experience.

My bacon was burnt & harder than a rock I ordered hash browns they gave me home fries. By the time they corrected the potatoes the eggs were cold . Gave us no forks. Dads sausage patties were burnt. The biscuits were good. Not likely I'll go back

Very limited parking. NO ONE wearing gloves in kitchen. Floor was very filthy. Disappointed that home fries are deep fried & very greasy. Service was great. Reminded me of a greasy truck stop. Will not be back

Food was great, service was great, everything was perfect! The server was really nice & she knows what she’s doing. We’ll definitely come back again for breakfast! :)

Cannot say enough good things about this place! It is our new go-to spot.
Fred, the owner, and his partner, Jodie, are wonderful hosts and try to accommodate each guest and make sure they have a pleasant experience.
The food is terrific homestyle cooking. The wait staff is pleasant and attentive. Those folks work hard and never seem to stop.
Shout out to the kitchen staff, especially Allan's delicious take on chicken livers and Ms. Tammy's home made rolls. 😋

Breakfast foods are delicious!!! The dining area is a little cramped. Server was great!

Service was quick, although waitress got our order mixed up and it wasn't that busy. Restaraunt is fairly new will check back again.

Never knew this restaurant was in Parkersburg. Plenty of parking, nice roomy interior. Very pleasant staff, good food, nice selection. Friendly atmosphere
