Hometown Charm Cafe

Sumner WA. Excited to try this downtown place. Looked quaint. Not a lot of seating so I was seated at the counter. Asked about the CFS because that's my go to, but not made in house so no thanks on processed CFS. Three strip bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast. Pretty simple. Potatoes were spot on and crispy like I wanted. Eggs over easy were good but I think cooked in grease and not butter. Real drawbacks:Bacon came out cold. Sent back to kitchen to warm up although I think they would have just given me another order but I can't eat 6 thick strips of bacon. Still came back only warm. The price of the coffee is ridiculously expensive for drip. Starbucks doesn't charge that much for a grande. Unlimited pours but come on $5.25? What irked me more was she charged the couple after me the cost of one coffee between the two of them. WTF? Why wasn't mine 1/2 price because I was alone? Price gouging. Lastly the almost dollar surcharge for using my corporate credit card. For 17.25 for two eggs, bacon, browns and toast, and a $5.25 cup of coffee, the dollar you charged me to offset the card company fees was just plain tacky and greedy. Your food is not that high end for the prices you charge and charging me the absurd amount for a cup of coffee and the service charge for paying with card is pure greed. I won't be back because the cost lacked value for my money. Come on, almost $30 for food and tip for breakfast for 1?? Does that even seem legit for cafe food?

Found my familys new go-to breakfast place! The biscuits and gravy was amazing! My whole family loved what they ordered! I cant wait to come back and try the other items on the menu

One of my friends recommended that we try Hometown Charm Cafe for a brunch date.I arrived in a group of 5 around 12:30 PM on a Sunday and it was a 40 minute wait.It's layout and decor is quaint. It's in an older building, and immediately upon entering is a snug waiting area that is separated from the rest of the restaurant by walls, a small booth with a staff member taking calls, and a small staircase leading upstairs. Just behind this is a mini bar and then an open view into the kitchen. It was completely packed with people sardined on a vintage couch and groups waiting outside. The hostess was busily taking calls and managing an old fashioned pen and paper list for reservations and the waitlist. My group of 5 was seated by the large bay windows on the main floor. I wish I had explored what was upstairs. The bathrooms in the back were tucked near the broom closet.The menu is fairly short but there was lots of freedom to customize your meal. The prices are kind of high for a diner.My table ordered the cinnamon rolls, the southwestern omelet, the Big Chicken chicken fried steak meals, and the special of the day French toast breakfast. The cinnamon roll was the star of the show. It was huge. It was well made and hard not to swallow whole. I would go back for the cinnamon roll alone. The French toast was made of regular sliced bread and topped with partially frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones. Most of the signature meals use size/quantity as their main hosting feature. So if you know what you like and want a lot of it, this is the place to go. Also, they had some impressively thick bacon, which is hard to come by at diners.The staff were all super friendly and quick to get back to us. Staff members were immediate to acknowledge us when we stepped in and even quicker to have us brought waters and served. I was nervous that arriving at 12:30 and then being seated within an hour of their close would be inconvenient to staff, but no one expressed annoyance or rushed us out. Overall, this location is a super safe bet for breakfast. It is down to earth but with lots of personality. It feels like a fun excursion but you don't need to be in your Sunday's finest here.

Hometown Charm Café is a must do if you're in the Sumner area. This sweet little spot is great for dates, girlfriend time or just snagging something deliciously filling while perusing the many adorable shops in Sumner. We love their sandwiches and the hash bowls. The service is fast and friendly. Be sure to snag a giant cinnamon roll on your way out for snacking later.

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. It's extremely over priced for the food. Drinks are separate for kids meals, all 7 of our meals were cold. The sign said "parties of 6 have an automatic 20% gratuity, one check is preferred" and we had 5 of us on one check and 2 on another because we were paying separately and we were both charged the 20% gratuity. Even though it was two checks. Had the sign said "tables" over 6, sure but it said parties and there was nothing mentioned when we asked for two checks in the VERY beginning. Mentioning that would have been nice. But $110 for 2 adult meals and 3 kids meals is INSANE, especially since it was cold. I don't think we will be back. We love supporting small businesses and restaurants but that's insane.

Wonderful charming restaurant that has great food and service. I really need to try one of the cinnamon rolls because they look amazing! Great place to eat breakfast and lunch.

Hometown Charm is the place to go if you want to eat great food, be around wonderful people, and just feel seen. They have such a great staff and their attention to detail is AMAZING. I ordered 17 breakfast meals for a work event and they made everything item with love and precision. Every order was correct. Their GF pancakes are the best we have EVER eaten. Not rubbery or gritty as most GF things are. Thank you to April and the staff for making our food.

Baked goods were great. Service pretty good. Main dishes - pastrami sandwich, and breakfast food were so so.Very limited offerings open here in Bonney Lake on the holiday day of memorial day.

Cute lil spot for breakfast. Would love to try for lunch. Clean, friendly staff. Both upstairs and main level seating. Reasonably priced. We ordered the senior omelette and the regular chicken fried steak with home fries. Good flavor, decent portion. Not many restaurants can baste eggs the way we like them (whites done) they did perfect! Will come back.

Amazing customer service- every single person was so kind and so considerate to whatever i needed! My tea and cinnamon roll were also delicious
