Rosie's Cafe

Easy to find location with a welcoming entryway was a great way to start my initiation to a well loved local cafe. My friend and I enjoyed the cozy, quiet booth where we were seated. And unknowingly, close to the coffee pots area! Lucky choice!It's really cute that they serve their coffee in mismatched mugs with cute quotes on them. Better still? They serve GREAT COFFEE!My friend and I chose the same entree. Two eggs, hash browns, toast and bacon. It was WONDERFUL bacon! I know, some of you would argue "all bacon is wonderful". But as a certified Bacon Admiration Society member (yeah, I just made that up...) this is exceptionally delicious. I ordered my eggs over easy. It's obvious this was not the cook's first effort since my eggs were perfectly cooked. The hash browns should have been ordered "crispy" to tick the win box for me. But they sufficed. Our server for this first effort was Betty. Well dressed, manager on duty, "knows her stuff" - - which in my estimation - - is a good thing!!I look forward to returning soon. Oh - - and their breakfast menu is vast!

The outside of the restaurant was clean but needs some repairs. The inside was clean but outdated decor. The service was quick and they were very nice. I found a hair in my drink. I ordered the American breakfast with my eggs over easy. I did not receive my toast until I asked for it. My egg whites were still snotty but my yoke was hard and already broken open when I received them. They precooked my eggs and they looked better but my whites were still snotty and very underdone. My daughter ordered the pancake breakfast and said her pancakes tasted funny. I was hoping this would be better but it wasn't.

Breakfast, The Most Important Meal of the Day!I do not know how I missed Rosie's Cafe during their over 20 year history. It is right across the parking lot from what had once been one of my favorite BBQs, and right down Highway 40 from one of my top three Italian restaurants. I know I have been past it over a thousand times!On the recommendation of an old friend, I stopped in for breakfast (it is one of the "breakfast" places that have now become all the rage), and was immediately impressed. While the parking lot appeared full, along with the parking spots along the street, I still found a handy spot. Noticing that almost every table was filled, a server was on the spot to point out a couple of empty ones. Slipping into a well worn but very comfortable booth, another server with a coffee pot in hand asked if I cared for coffee. Yes, I said, and a cup appeared in his other hand and was served quickly. That was when I realized that Rosie's has a very loyal customer base. A friendly server showed up and asked if I needed a menu. As I said "yes" she informed me on the special of the day: "2 bone-in pork chops, eggs, and hash browns for $9.75. Pork chops so tender you can cut them with a fork!" Hmmm, replying that I did not believe I was that hungry, she said, "We've got to go boxes." My fate sealed, chops were my destiny. Within minutes my order was delivered with a statement that mine was the last one left, eyeing the clock I saw that it was only 8:15 am - guess this was a popular option. She was right! I am not sure why a knife was served along with my order, I do not think I have ever had pork chops that tender! Their flavor was great and everything else was prepared perfectly. Presentation exceeded the "local diner feel" of the place and was equal to anywhere in town.Looking around at the other customers I could tell from all the smiles that my impressions were not unique. Rosie's has the "vibe" and product that all the recent additions to the "breakfast restaurants" in town strive to achieve, but seldom do. It is truly the "needle in the haystack" of that niche in the market. I did not have the stomach capacity to try their "famous" pecan waffles, but that leaves yet another reason to return. If you have missed Rosie's in the past, you do owe it to yourself to slip by for an honest-to-goodness breakfast. I know that I plan to be back.

Was pleasantly suprised the food was pretty good and fast. Service was very good. And they have good coffee. What more could a gal ask for? It could use a bit of an update. Some of the booth seats are not in good shape

Celebrated a birthday today and no better place to do it than Rosie's Cafe. The minute we walked inside, my mother was excited to see all of the country home styled decor and furnishings. We ordered a veggie burger which looked and tasted just like a hamburger and was delicious. I had the club sandwich with fresh potato salad made up that day. Another ordered the open faced pot roast sandwich. We topped things off with slices of fresh pies including chocolate, lemon, and coconut cream. Sharon and Jeff took great care of our table, and Rosie came out with them to sing the good 'ol happy birthday song. Love this place!

First time here and the food was great! Service was fast and with a smile. Then as I'm leaving I asked about all the smiley face decor and when I asked about a certain one to buy, the lady gave it to me! She said, "it was given to me so I'm giving it to you." She had no idea what it meant to me. As it was my best friends birthday who passed away 3 years ago and she loved smiley faces. It was the kindest thing ever from a stranger. I asked if I could hug her and she obliged. Highly recommend!

Rosie is no longer in business. She called up lock the doors. Seems like there's their turning it into a Mexican joint.

If you are looking for home-cooked family style food like your grandma made, this is the place. One of my father's favorite places to go. The owner is friendly and the food is good.

The first thing i want to point out in my review is our waitress Jillian. She was cute as a button with her big brown eyes and sweet girl smile. She was patient, knowledgeable and just exuded a great positive energy. She definitely was the star of my review. Good job Jillian!!! Stay sweet and humble.Now, onto the restaurant review:We stopped in on a Sunday morning for breakfast. We were seated promptly and there were several other patrons eating. The place is small, with booths and a few tables. The decor is pretty dated, but seemed clean. We ordered coffee, a small oj, a sausage omelette with crispy hashbrowns, wheat toast, and a chocolate chip pancake with two scrambled eggs and one sausage patty. We asked for honey for the pancake.About the food:My omelette was fine: plenty of sausage and cheese. The hashbrowns were crispy and pretty good. The toast was buttered well. The OJ was a very small serving (which Jillian, our waitress warned me of), but was plenty for me...it was a bit bitter, but i still drank most of it.My husbands eggs were ordered as scrambled...they were slimy. ugh. His pancake was pretty flavorless (even with chocolate chips), but it was huge. It was also overcooked. The honey was corn syrup and honey mix. meh. The butter is the vegetable oil kind. also meh.The coffee was fine. You can even ask for flavored creamer.The staff seemed to be mostly family, and were all pleasant.We likely won't return here to eat, due to less than average food for a $32 bill, but it was nice to try somewhere new.

Great food and service!! The everything omelette was very good and the staff are very kind and helpful!
