Simple Pleasures Catering

So this place is not fancy inside at all, and needs new chairs or the chairs painted.Please do not let the decor fool you, as the food was delicious!This restaurant was recommended to me the last time I was in Lincoln. Today I drove from my town 25 minutes each way to finally check it out for myself.The Ranch dressing was fabulous, the ice tea came in a huge jug, the blackberry pie was yummy. It is rare I give a restaurant 5 stars. I was sitting near the kitchen; and everything coming out looked so good.The young man waiting on me was very patient with me, as I got carried away and needed to go items.I will be back with friends.Thank you for making me like Lincoln now, as it has been growing on me slowly.Maria

I'll give them more than 5 stars.Amazing food , super friendly service.Steak sandwich is just sooo good, perfectly cooked meat, the biggest steak sandwich i have ever had.

Great food great service. Food is very reasonable. Love this place. Rib eye steak sandwich is my favorite. Only $16.

A great little cafe in downtown Lincoln, and well worth a stop for breakfast or lunch. The place definitely has charm, and that old Gold Country atmosphere. Brick walls, heavy wood detailing and memorabilia prevails.From what I ate, and the reviews, I'd say what they have beyond atmosphere is good food.We came for breakfast and sat in the back courtyard. Not exactly a garden wonderland yet comfortable enough. Your surrounded by back of store commerical establishments, a large parking lot, and a park off to one side.There's good enough comfortable seating indoors, nicely segmented front to back from it just being one large room. Plus, some outdoor dining on the sidewalk out front.I had a breakfast sandwich and it was delcious! You get to customize it as you like with a choice of bread, meat and cheese. I had mine with sourdough, sausage and swiss cheese, and it was perfect.Nicely toasted the bread was wholesome, lots of perfectly cooked egg, with just a bit of soft yolk, delicious sausage and lots of melted cheese. It was quite filling and satisfying. Plus, the cost is reasonable for the quality.I washed it down with a latte, that was offered hot or cold. A big mug with frothy coffee did hit the mark.Service was very friendly and accommodating.I will be back to try other things. They have a catering business,.too, and I suspect I know who I am heading to for my next party!Sorry, no photos... didn't have my phone!Next time

I was in Lincoln today taking care of some business, and this place was right next to where I had parked my car. So, I decided to check it out. It is a nice space, and they are doing a good job of keeping the tables distanced. I was greeted right away, and taken to my seat. I decided to have the Black German. Hot pastrami, sauerkraut, melted swiss cheese, on dark rye. It normally comes with mayo, but I asked them to swap out the mayo with thousand island dressing, and pretty much make it a reuben. The sandwich was delicious, except for a couple of small things. I wish they could have used a little bit more dressing, and the pastrami was pretty much cold in the middle. I didn't send it back, because it was still good, and I had to get going. The sandwich also comes with your choice of potato salad, macaroni salad, or a side salad. I had the side salad with a delicious honey mustard dressing. In addition to the lettuce, it also came with cheese, sunflower seeds, and alfalfa sprouts. Lunch and ice tea came out to a total of $14 before tip. Pretty reasonable. Thanks for the meal.

Love this little café. We were in Lincoln visiting the area and stumbled on this café in downtown Lincoln, located in a historic building. We were seated on the back patio. Mr. B was in need of coffee as we had been driving for several hours. The coffee was great and the saying on the mugs puts a smile on your face, see photos.We ordered the Missy Melt to split with a side of potato salad. The sandwich was big, so we were glad we split it. The sandwich has turkey, black forest ham with melted swiss and American cheese on dark rye. We added avocado. The sandwich was delicious. The cheese was perfectly melted, the avocado fresh and creamy. The turkey and ham was high quality and so fresh. The potato salad was creamy and fresh. We loved this place. The service was excellent, food came out fast and everyone was so very friendly.

Someone told me about this little restaurant that has been in Lincoln for many years. Their sandwich was simple but delicious! The potato salad was really good too. I would definitely go back there again.

Quant little place AND VERY POPULAR. Went there with brother; my first time. I ordered a tuna melt with fries and iced tea with mint. Brother ordered the steak sandwich and fries and a black iced tea. To go, I ordered a slice of carrot cake and a mixed berry pie. My tuna melt was OK. The fries were crispy and delicious. But my brother's steak sandwich was the BOMB! He even gave me a bite's worth and OMG! The steak was oh so tender and flavorable. I know what I'm ordering next time for sure. His iced black tea really tasted like black tea and I loved my iced tea with a hint of refreshing mint. Definitely will reorder this again. Or maybe the iced black tea.As for the carrot cake? Good, but not something I'd reorder. And then there was the mixed berry pie. From the flakey crust to the various fruits in the pie itself -- DIVINE! Must have more. I can't wait to take Darling Husband there for lunch. He'll be ordering the steak sandwich, too, just like me.

Great place! Atmosphere! Friendly service! In the best part of Lincoln! Ribeye sandwich is bomb!

Absolutely awesome experience here came in just before closing and they gave us zero fuss at all and provided an absolutely exceptional level of service. Thank you so much, Ashley. Food was great and service was even better highly recommend
