Owl Cafe

Nice, clean, & friendly diner. Had the ham & cheese omelet with a side hashbrowns. The portions are pretty decent here. When I got there it was 15 minutes before opening & the cook graciously opened the door & let me in early. Enjoyed the local vibe & the bathroom was clean & inviting just like the diner itself. Good experience & worth checking out for a morning meal.

It is a simple diner, competently done. The menu fits on one normal sized page, I believe everything is cooked on a single grill. If you want fancy go somewhere else, but if you are looking for good quality simple food, in Platteville then, this is the place. The staff have not changed in years, or maybe decades, they figured out how to run the place and have stuck to what they know works. I believe they are family, that helps with retention.

Find your way here for endless coffee and an egg sausage and cheese breakfast sandwich on sourdough that is absolutely incredible. Skip the chains and have a real breakfast!

Great little diner. The food is always amazing. I would highly suggest visiting this business.

Best sit down I found in Platteville area, not a lot of choices since COVID19, but this one survived. If it is packed, there may be a good wait, only 2 people run it, food is plentiful and hot, coffee doesn't go empty. Had western omelet and hashbrowns, added photo.

Foods some of the best I've ever had but I can't eat here as much due to the cold treatment I get whenever I ask them to put it in a box because I don't like eating in public. Sad because I love the food but I don't like the hassle it takes whenever I go in. I don't mind paying cash only. Hell I'll even pay for the boxes but it just seems to me they have a preferential clientele.

Large portions, great food, wonderful atmosphere, only downside is limited seating and the place gets packed!

Very good little spot to try. Best fried chicken and chicken strips. Delicious dessert- but seems to sell out fast.

Looking for a bite to eat near downtown, and walked past the Owl Cafe. It was fairly busy, with older-than-college-age people, so I figured it must be OK. Limited menu, but everything looked good. I had a burger and waffle fries with water to drink (cost less than a fast food meal). Food was great, with the burger cooked exactly how I would make it at home (fresh beef, nice sear, definitely not a food service patty). The owners were super friendly, even if some of the locals looked at me as if I was the first outsider to come in for a while... I enjoyed listening to fish stories and the small town chit chat that I grew up with. I will be back.

Best breakfast in the Universe. My friends and I got there just before they stopped changed to a lunchtime menu. They did our breakfasts to perfection.
