Great place for breakfast and awesome staff

Comfort food. Good comfort food. Good comfort food with a Southern flair. Breakfast anytime. Biscuits and gravy, Eggs cooked just right. Lots of choices. Spot-on friendly customer service. It was as if we stepped back in time . . . into a 1970s cafe. Our first visit was happenstance . . . a recommendation from a local person. . . . we definitely will be back the next time we are in this neck-of-the-woods. Might even be worth a special trip. Thanks Peoria Cafe.

I went in on a Friday for lunch, I HAD to try the fish fry after reading all these great reviews about it. Im sad to say that I was dissapointed with the fish fry. The batter was good, but the fish didnt taste so good. The place was extremely busy, so it might just be me that didnt enjoy it; I might return and try out some breakfast, hopefully that is a little better.
(2)Diane G.
The food is amazing and the service is fantastic. We originally tried the place for their fish fry....it is the best I have had in a long time. Big pieces and lots of it. We then tried the breakfast, again amazing. The work omlette has so much stuff in it the you forget your eating eggs, the biscuits and gravy are just like my grandfather used to make. Good ice tea and great coffee. Friday thru Sunday it is pretty packed but we have never had to wait more than five minutes or a table. The staff is friendly and they all work to make the experience great

You won't find many places like this is AZ. The staff is friendly and the food is great! My favorite is the chicken quesadilla. Friday fish fry is by far the busiest night of the week because the fish is soooo good. People line out the door to get the fish here; it's amazing. They also have free wifi and takeout! Great service and friendly people. :)

I went in today fr a Togo order... I saw the waitress grab a biscuit with her bare hands and proceed to split it with her HANDS ! Eeeeeeew! All I could think about was what was on her hands and what she touched before she split the biscuit WITH HER HANDS!! On top of that they forgot my syrup and butter. The food was decent but nothing special.
(2)Kirsten Z.
Eggs are bad other food is pretty good. This place is nothing special, they try and are friendly but the eggs are gross, as is the coffee. Home Fries and such are pretty decent. The atmosphere is nice and homey and very country. Seats are comfortable and no real complaints. But for the most part the food is bad. I will not return intentionally
(2)Denise O.
Had the ribeye with Home fries the potatoes were terrible I asked for the steak medium well it was well over done yeah only thing that was good was the eggs and the toast so I don't recommend this place
(1)Michelle S.
The food here is so fresh and they literally bring it out 5 minutes after you order it! Love the great service too!
(5)Daren C.
Fish Fry Fridays! Cam with the whole famdamily. There was like 12 of us. 95% all got the fish. The staff was efficient, effective and did a good job. The fish was served with fries and soggy cole slaw. While both were good (not great) the fish was perfect. Perfectly breaded and fried. Unless you can seriously pack it in, You DO NOT need the all you can eat. None of us could have eaten another bite.
(4)Dave F.
Eating a "works omelette" with hash browns right now. Its great. Older crowd, so you know its the place for breakfast. Definitely recommend, cute atmosphere.
(5)Joe M.
I have been coming here for a little over a year now. The food is good and the staff is even better.
(5)Leah E.
I have been wanting to try this place for awhile, and it did not disappoint! The chorizo and eggs were so flavorful, loved the fresh made salsa that came with it too! My son had the mickey pancake and it was so cute, tasty too! My husband had the italian sausage omelet, which was very good also. It was pretty packed when we walked in, however were seated right away. We have been looking for a great breakfast spot near our home, and we finally found one that can stand up! Yes! This is a scary thing... I am pretty sure we will be regulars!
(4)Brian H.
Like eating at a truck stop
(2)Coty S.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting this place to be as good as it was. I was pleasantly surprised. The food. Every piece of my food was cooked perfectly. Bacon, eggs, toast, everything. While this may not seem a big deal, but we had a big party with us, and our whole table got their food at the same time. It all looked good. Service. The lady was nice and stopped by often with drinks. Good on her. Price. Great price for better quality food than some other breakfasts chains I've been to. Overall, will come back for sure. -Coty
(5)Scott W.
This place is definitely on my going to breakfast short list. Not very often convenient for me but a very nice place. Food is always good. In addition to the daily specials they have a pretty good creamed chipped beef which is something you cannot find every where. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The place has that comfortable local feel to it you cannot get in a chain.
(4)JEANNE C.
Great Mom and Pop place. Ample food at a great price and tastes like home cooking. We like to go for breakfast, but also went for friday fish fry. It's all good.
(4)Felicia P.
Slightly crappy start to this little adventure...walking in my phone got (what the "man-friend" likes to call) "Glendale custom" aka-I dropped in walking in and shattered the screen. I have insurance and its only a phone so I got over it quick. We walked in and were greeted by an incredibly sweet older lady who later explained she stopped in for a meal one day and next thing she knew she had a hostess job in her spare time. THEN-if that wasn't charming enough we look out the window and see an older John Deere tractor with a grandpa and his grandson just driving to breakfast. Literally they could have served me dog food at this point but the charm had already won me over. And yet-the food was oober yummy. Very home cooked feel. Made me a bit homesick. The staff was awesomely friendly and the atmosphere was fun and light. Very small town feel. Being a small town girl I fell in love. Will be back, hopefully driving in on a John Deere.
(5)Joanna W.
No fancy decor or fancy creative anything-infused dishes here. Just what you'd expect from a family style restaurant: kids meals that are more than enough food plus a drink for 3.49; thick french fries that are crisy on the outside and fluffy inside, and a Friday night fish fry that trumps Long John Silver. I really liked the coleslaw. Mike's clam chowder was lumpy and won't be ordered again. The kids liked their meals except the picky one who refused to eat the hot dog after she heard they don't sell many. "I've had some better hot dogs from a gas station," she said. The wait staff was quite friendly and attentive. The prices are good and the food is predictable - so if you're in the area and need a place to sit and chat, this cafe fits the bill. By the way, they have some of the freshest iced tea I've had in a long time. And I'm really picky about my iced tea, if you haven't noticed.
(3)Al G.
WOW WHAT A PLACE. Had lunch for the first today I had a 1/2 lb bacon cheeseburger with fry's. It was the best Berger I haven't eaten in years. Thick juicy and jest dam Good.. The fry's were crisp and hot very good. My wife had the open face Hot Beef Sandwich. And could not eat it all. She is lets say a bit picky when it comes to her hot beef and said this is very very good. She brought what she could not finish home. We will be going back for breakfast this weekend. I suggest you give it a try. And will will be doing the fish fry on Friday night. We will let you know how it is.
(5)Matt R.
Great clean coffee shop. Prices good food very good service very good. Burger may be the best in town, really. Hand patted patties very good.
(5)Priscilla A.
Labor Day was a busy day to have my first breakfast here but it was worth the hour or so wait. I got the two egg breakfast with hash browns and biscuit and gravy, side of crispy bacon. It was worth the wait. The servers were all super friendly and apologized for the wait with a free bowl of menudo. Coffee was always full. All in all great place but probably not on a holiday.
(4)Jason G.
This is a local cafe and is pretty crowded on the weekend for breakfast. It's what you want to look for when you're not from the area and want to have a good, authentic local dining experience. The breakfast is relatively basic and the food pretty good. The portions are quite large, perhaps to compensate for the quality and taste but overall it's a good value.
(3)Daniel T.
1 st time for fish fry. Really good and plenty with single serving. Cinnamon flavor in batter. Very busy, but nice. I'll be coming back for breakfast..
(4)Sarah C.
Love love love this place!!! My friend Ann and I have become Sunday morning regulars and we love the food and atmosphere! Sitting at the counter is our favorite, so we can visit with our favorite waitress, Angelica! ....and the price is right!! Their pancakes are larger than their plates, hope you have a huge appetite and everything else is mighty tasty, nothing disappoints me here!
(5)Sam I.
Fairly tasty, very casual, friendly dining experience. Interestingly, one half of the dining area shares the floor space with the open floor kitchen and I was able to watch my food be prepared. Food was quite tasty. I had the french toast special. My over medium eggs were cooked perfectly, but the home-fries were slices of potatoes grilled on one side and reminded me more of hash-browns. In all fairness the waitress asked if I wanted them deep fried and I said no, but I guess that's how I have been getting them at other places and didn't realize it. Fyi they don't serve waffles, but I liked that their menu didn't have a million choices. Too many menu options is often the sign of desperation and bad food.
(4)Shelby E.
Najet and staff are great. We have never had a bad experience and have been going for years. Breakfast and Friday fish fry. Not being a huge fish fan, I always get something else no matter what it is its great. There bread pudding is amazing.
(5)Jay B.
On my first visit I thouroghly enjoyed this place. From the food to the staff, everything was great and makes you want to come back to explore more. With a vast menu covering everything breakfast and beoynd, there was bound to be a return trip. On my return trip in my waitress was so rude it's turned me off from eating again inside this establishment. When asked if I could do a substitution (due to an allergy) she looked at me as if I was an idiot and rudely asked, "well like what? what do you want me to do?". She was unable to comprehend that I had asked her a question and then proceeded to say "that's not something we do. Well wait, I'm new, let me check...", so ordering something different became an immediate choice. If you don't know something, don't be rude, just ask. From now on I will order out from this place which I have done with success several times since my first visit. The friendliness of the other staff and food still gives hope for this place, but in the end the actions of one representing a whole diminish the brightness that was.
(3)Sarah R.
This is our local spot for breakfast or brunch. They also do lunch items but we haven't really tried that yet. Have never had a problem parking, there is an outside patio but if you go during the weekday there are often smokers out there so we stay inside. The service is consistently top notch and the staff exhibits great team work. We usually order one of the specials, my favorites are "the city" and the monte cristo sandwich. My friend got the steak and eggs on sunday and was happy with it. The coffee was great and always full! The only downside is the checks/ bill have to be taken to the pay station by the entrance and if it's a weekend crowd, the area gets kinda tight. NOT a big deal but it's a factual situation and some people aren't so patient.
(4)Briana K.
Eat local, folks. Seriously though. This place makes me feel at home every darn time I walk in the door. And the food is so good. So so so good. And $7.99 for breakfast that covers the entire plate? crazy. We're talking chicken fried steak. Thats a heck of a deal. If you live in peoria try this place out. Just make sure you get there early because they close at 2. There's always a crowd but I've never once had to wait. Staff is always friendly!
(5)Matt S.
Peoria Cafe has a small town diner feel. Good food, decent price, and friendly service.
(4)Bea B.
Well I have to say today will be the last time we eat at the Peoria Cafe. The eggs weren't cooked to order, hash browns weren't even cooked, very cold. I watched the kitchen from were i was sitting and noticed that they dont take the time with their orders. To busy to cook food the way it is ordered, dont send it out. Really need to slow down and cook the food better. And i also noticed the waitress eating bacon and licking her fingers then going over and picking up the toast and putting the butter on. Never washed her hands after eating. Good Bye Peoria Cafe. Beatrice.
(1)Kev C.
Went back for fish fry Friday again. Even better the second time. The fish was better, the coleslaw was better, the tartar sauce was on point. Am I going back next Friday? Yuppppppp.
(5)M M.
Stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday morning. They were very busy but service and food was excellent. Serving portions are huge and well worth the price. This place is a must do if your hungry for a quality comfort food.
(5)Shawna T.
Always amazing food. They treat us like we are family. The staff care about our needs and know just how we like items. Always fast and friendly. Love the oatmeal and biscuits and gravy. Coffee is always refreshed ands hot. Make sure to stop in and try the cowboy breakfast. Yummmmmm!
(5)Carla D.
This place is perfect. The waitresses are on queue. The food is more than I expected. Big portions and a wide variety. EVEN For those who are watching their calorie intake.
(5)Steven P.
Really great staff, great breakfast and lunch, well worth the trip and the prices are awesome.
(5)Chelsea W.
Breakfast food is just ok, it is not very flavorful. But the biscuits are homemade and very fresh! The service is very slow and not nice. We sat on the patio for 10 minutes before anyone came out to see us. Another waitress barely gave us the time of day, we probably saw her 2 times the whole meal.
(2)Brady M.
The food here is always good and the service is great. It has certainly grown since the last time we were here some six years back. I only wish they had a larger hot sauce selection, all they had was some red sauce in a oil dispenser. The pancakes were big and tasted good, the turkey club was tasty. I didn't like the French fries so I'll make sure to ask for onion rings next time. And the sausage patties were kinda salty. Ultimately, this is a really nice place to come with friends or family.
(5)Lynn B.
Basic breakfast you can get anywhere. They didn't serve real butter, the biscuits were dense, and coffee weak. Atmosphere is nice and staff was great. I will not be bookmarking this one though
(3)Brandon E.
My Friday Night Fish Fry to go place. The fish is beer battered and cooked right with huge servings. I opt for the fries which were nice and crisp bt a touch of salt after frying would bring out some flavor. The cole slaw lacks any flavor and is cabbage swimming in tasteless mayo, not very appetizing but the fish is the star and keeps me coming back almost every Friday. As busy as this place is the teamwork of the servers makes everyone feel at home and are very efficient. I highly recommend the Friday Night Fish Fry, just pass on the Cole Slaw.
(4)Nazia T.
Great, fast service, the server kept the coffee topped. Best raisin toast, ask for corn beef hash well done and it's perfect.
(5)Gina M.
Prompt & friendly service, good prices, tasty food, everything I want in a little cafe. I had their croissant breakfast sandwich; loved it! If/When I'm back in the area, I'd like to try their bacon cheeseburger.
(5)Becky S.
Three words: FISH FRY FRIDAY. Have you ever been to a backwoods bar in Wisconsin that has an all-you-can-eat fish fry on a Friday night for practically nothing? If you answered "no" to that question, then I invite you to experience the Peoria Cafe. It's the next best thing, right here in Arizona! What you will get is reasonable prices, friendly service, and a good, old-fashioned Friday night fish fry. The downside is that they only serve until 8 (?!?!) and I don't think they serve alcohol; everyone knows that a truly awesome fish fry is complimented by a brandy old-fashioned and/or a microbrew. I would give a few points for their delicious home-made ranch dressing. My advice: pre-drink and head over to the Peoria cafe for a great fried fish dinner!
(4)F S.
I have dined here every Saturday morning for the past two months. I won't eat breakfast from anywhere else. The portions are so huge I have enough for my breakfast on Sunday as well. The staff is wonderful. I will certainly eat here again. I order an omelette with bacon, ham, and sausage, home fries, cinnamon raisin toast, and coffee.
(5)Kristin H.
Came here with my friend for breakfast. We were seated immediately, had drinks delivered right away and our order was taken within about 5 minutes. Our food came out incredibly quickly as well. The eggs were a perfect over medium and the bacon was delicious. Some places undercook their bacon and it's chewy but the bacon here was crispy (not burned). All of the servers worked together so we had three different people give us drinks, take our order and refill our beverages. I thought that was great though and they really works as a team to make sure we were taken care of properly. I will definitely go back when I visit Peoria again soon!

Date: February 2012, a Sunday morning around 9AM Ordered: 1 - Fried Zucchini 2 - Steak and Eggs 1 - Ice Tea 1 - Coffee Total: $25 to $30 ************* Fried Zucchini - Tasted like fish. Other than the fish oil it was fried in, this was a good deal. The zucchini was cut in quarters lengthwise and you received about 8 pieces, accompanied with ranch. I am willing to give them a second chance on this dish. Steak and Eggs - This was a steak just didn't taste right; either it was old or very poor quality. I ordered my steak medium, and it was served well done, not a speck of pink. The eggs were cooked correctly. The hash browns and toast that this was served with were both on the verge of burnt. ************* Atmosphere: Spacious. This café is large; they have 3 sections, one outside on a gated patio. There was a group of "regulars" sitting at the counter Service: The waitress was satisfactory. ************* Will I be back? Maybe... only if I am craving zucchini and am willing to take a chance. But then again, Brothers Restaurant is across the street and they are great. P.S. Currently there is a great deal of construction going on there.
(2)Kristin V.
I would not recommend eating at the Peoria Cafe. I ordered two pancakes and bacon for my breakfast. The bacon was nice and crispy like I ordered, however the pancakes were tasteless. When I poured the syrup onto my plate from the container sitting on the table, to my surprise a large fly came out in the syrup! Disgusting! The rest of my friends refused to eat after seeing this. The waitress took the plate and the syrup from the table and apologized. We all left and will not be returning to the Peoria Cafe. The back door was open and there were also bugs flying around. I'm not sure if you can attach a picture to this, but I will if I can.
(1)Mark H.
I dined at this restaurant for the Friday Fish Fry. The food was fine and reasonable. My problem was with the staff. Upon getting ready to leave I asked for a to-go box. Our table had NO reorders or seconds. We simply wanted to take with us that which was originally served. Again, we would not expect to take home leftovers if we had ordered seconds or utilized the ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT menu. We originally ordered a single serve and an all you can eat plate (not utilized). Mgmt. would not oblige us and refused a to-go container. They were not pleasant to us. NEVER AGAIN. Why would they publicly argue with customers ?
(1)Ryan S.
I have to say. My employee has been wanting me to try their fish fry here. OMG. Some of the best fish fry I've ever tasted. They know their doing here. The bread pudding words can't even describe. Your taste buds will be all over the place. That's how delicious this was. I will be back for sure.
(5)Sprinkles M.
Went in for the Friday night fish fry. This is your typically Midwestern style fish fry. Service was very friendly & fast. Had ordered the cup of clam chowder to start off with but it seemed to be a bowl size although on the bill it was deemed cup size. Chowder didn't have much flavor to it at all. Just thick, white & creamy with a few pieces of clams. Not impressed have had much better. Before I could even complete eating my bowl of chowder my Friday night fish fry single serve ($7.99) arrived. It had 4 large pieces of fish with french fries (could have ordered baked potato or mashed) with a side of cole slaw & a roll. Fish was very fresh tasting & the batter was not greasy at all but the batter lacked flavor. Points for batter not being greasy as most places have greasy batter fried fish. Cole slaw lacked flavor as well. Seemed that it was just thinned out mayonnaise with cabbage. Tarter sauce could have used some thinning out as it was just mayonnaise with relish in it. Fries were soggy & cold & lacked salt. Salt wouldn't stick to them since they were cold. Didn't try the rolls since I already had enough starch on my plate they were soft though when I did touch one. Although this review seems rather negative I am giving Peoria Cafe 3 stars based on service & the fact that the fish tasted extremely fresh, was not greasy & such a large portion. THe batter just needed a bit of seasoning & since I wenmt there primarily for the fish I think I would go back for the fish again but next time I would get a baked potato.
(3)Vladimir V.
Great food, great prices and great service... gotta come back for the fish fry friday...
(3)Heather J.
Friday fish fries are a must! The staff is always incredibly friendly and the food is always fast and delicious. A great place for kids, they have mickey mouse pancakes that are adorable. They need better bathrooms but that is minor issue with the great food that they have!
(4)Fulla A.
Becky S. gave me exactly what I was hoping for: a good AYCE fish fry review reminiscent of what can be found in my former domicile of Wisconsin. Thanks! The AYCE fish fry is $10.99 with drinks costing $1.95. However, unless you have a bottomless stomach stick with the cheaper single-plate option because the portions are HUGE!! Both include your choice of potato and small bowl of coleslaw. The coleslaw was primarily just mayo, cabbage, and shredded carrot so I chose not to waste calories by eating it. Celery seed, minced onion, and lemon juice would definitely brighten it up. The fish, however, is a real winner and after inquiring to our lovely waitress Emily on the difference between AYCE and their regular fish fry, she said the initial portion for AYCE is the same as the single-plate. Whoa! Now I'm a big guy (6'6", 275) and I could barely finish off my own plate, so next time I'll know to skip the AYCE and go regular fish fry instead. The tartar sauce had plenty of relish but could benefit from a little more lemony tartness (personal preference.) Of course, there's also malt vinegar on each table for diners who fancy that over tartar sauce ... Peoria Cafe is your typical hometown style cafe with a loud, open atmosphere. Almost as good as Byler's in Black Canyon City but a whole lot closer drive. I'll definitely be back when I crave a Wisconsin-style Friday night fish fry!

Nothing fancy here, just basic diner/cafe food, but they do it well. Our breakfasts were cooked perfectly and the waitstaff is very friendly.
(4)Allan B.
Nice mom and pop place. Daily specials, etc. Good, friendly service and decent food.
(4)Bradley S.
I have been visiting the Peoria Cafe off and on over the last 20 years or so covering several different owners often with differing levels of food quality and service. The current owner, who is very hands on and can be seen in the kitchen as well as on the floor, apparently "gets it", and it shows. Good food with a good value. As mentioned previously, this 'locals" cafe sits within a newly remodeled strip mall. The cafe interior itself has been remodeled and upgraded over the last couple of years in segments. The staff is a good mix of of long time and new employees. Everyone is friendly. I had breakfast at the cafe this morning for the second time in the last week after a long layoff which had nothing to do with the cafe or it's food and more to the fact that I don't eat breakfast out as much now that I'm retired. The reason for my re-visit, I wanted to enjoy their new Mexican Omelette which is principally a mix of chorizo, steak and cheese. My second sampling of this omelette was as good as the first. Ordered: Mexican Omelette Iced Tea Total $11.00 If you want to enjoy a breakfast at a reasonable price, give the Peoria Cafe a try.
(4)Greg W.
We paid our first visit to the Peoria Cafe tonight and came away extremely satisfied with our meal and our service!! The owner's daughter took great care of us and paid special attention to our questions and requests! The food (fish fry) was excellent and a great value! We will be going back again real soon and will spread the word to our friends and neighbors about our fantastic experience!
(5)Erika G.
I really like this place! The pancakes are great, the people are friendly and prices are reasonable. Nothing fancy, no gimmicks, simple and good!
(4)samantha G.
so we finally stopped in for breakfast.... I say finally because we drive by this lace at least three times a week. The whole plaza it sits in has been remolded, and we discovered that the cafe has been too - it looks great. I wouldn't call the cafe 'cozy', but I will take new and clean over dingy and outdated any time. Breakfast was only slightly above average, but taking the service and the price into consideration earns the cafe four starts. If you want fast and satisfactory food and a moderate price, this is a good option to place on your rotation. I don't think we would swing by for dinner - not our style, but we WILL be back for breakfast. I suspect we will be stopping by for lunch at some point too.
(4)William C.
This is my new favorite weekend breakfast spot! They have great specials and the service is great. I've only had breakfast at this place, so I'm not sure how their lunch/dinner options fare.
(5)Alicia B.
My mom wanted 'fish fry' for her birthday. We're from the Lake Erie region and like a light, mild fish, lightly breaded. I called around and found that Peoria Café had their fish fry Fridays. The place was packed, but they sat us right away and were very efficient. We weren't sure, after reading the reviews about how big the portions were, if we should order the fish dinner for $7.99 or the all you can eat (think it was $10.99). The waitress said the $7.99 is a big portion, usually enough... so start with that, and if you want more, then I can bump you up to the all you can eat price. Very nice that you don't have to start at the higher price only to later find out it was more than enough food... which it was! The $7.99 meal is plenty! The fish was very good. Lightly breaded, not greasy, not fishy, light, flaky, meaty. Very nice. Comes with cole slaw (not the best ever, but definitely decent - we ate it all... it's a bit heavy on the mayo). Also includes choice of potato - baked, fries or mashed. Mashed may have been instant, it's been a while since we ate here, but I remember being unimpressed. Again, not bad, certainly edible, but not 'blow you away.' Fries were the same thing... so I've gotten the baked potato each time since. It also comes with rolls, but sometimes when we go, we have to ask for them... they are happy to bring them when we ask. The fish is why you should go and why you will more than likely return. IT's very good at a great price. The sides are fine. The service has always been super friendly and it's definitely a 'neighborhood' place. Everyone leaving on Friday night said 'see you tomorrow' - apparently they go there for breakfast too. A lot of waitstaff called customers by name. Cute.
(4)Sean M.
It's hard finding places like this on the west side. Actually I mean anywhere. A real mom and pop sort of place that might not be prom worthy but for a real breakfast that makes you feel like a real truck drivin', gun tootin' American. Anyways, good prices and a damn good breakfast sandwich.
(5)Craig K.
The family and I decided to give the Friday Night Fish Fry a try. I don't regret it... It was good. The service was a tad on the slow side but they were pretty busy. I'd like to see what they have to offer for breakfasts now...
(4)Kelly F.
Was in the area visiting family and decided to stop in for breakfast. There was really nothing special about it, it was they typical breakfast and not that great. I got the denver omelet and hash browns with a biscuit. My omelet was really good. The veggies and ham were cut up into big chunks, which I prefer over them being diced, eggs were cooked perfectly and there was plenty of cheese. The hash browns were the typical hash browns, however, I felt the portion was way too big. I think I had more hash browns than I did omelet. My biscuit was dry and very, very dense. My husband and I are pancake freaks and we always get a side of pancakes to share with our breakfast. I'm assuming the pancakes were over stirred, they were pretty chewy and tough. My daughter got the breakfast burrito and said it was o.k. Probably won't return as its on the other side of town from where I live and we were not very impressed with the food.
(2)Cherlyn E.
Friendly service and great food for breakfast. This was our first time here and we will be back. Our waitress was so nice and friendly. The entire place makes you feel welcome.
(4)Chris M.
We arrived at 8:10 for breakfast and had to leave by 9AM for an appointment. Place was really busy. We were seated quickly and a server asked what we would like to drink. They didn't know we were in a bit of a hurry so all of the service is prompt! The husband was going to meet us there so we ordered a coffee for him. After looking over a lengthy menu, our waitress arrived, asked if we knew what we wanted, saw the coffee and vacant chair and asked if she should wait. I told her we needed to order so we did - Croissant breakfast sandwich, she happily offered to change my French toast to regular wheat instead of Texas style toast (+1egg, 2bacon), and the 2-meal (2 eggs, 2bacon, 2cakes). As soon as she walked away, the husband arrived. She saw him sit down, came over after giving him a few minutes and took his order (cornbeefhash, eggs and hash browns I think). We were served our food barely 10 minutes later - including the husband's late order and everything was cooked correctly and tasted great. Coffee refills are offered generously. Love the syrup in the mustard dispenser - no gooey mess! The waitress checked on us and we really had a very nice family breakfast. Two noteworthy reasons for the 5 stars - I never worried we wouldn't be able to finish before we had to leave...the service is so terrific! And when it was clear to our waitress that we were finished eating but my iced tea was low, she offered me a refill, which I accepted and then asked me if I wanted it in a to-go cup!!! This is a first for me and a very welcome service enhancement. On a hot Saturday morning in Peoria, with errands ahead of me, of course I would like some iced tea to join me. The cup was really big too! Don't overlook Peoria Café. Especially if you're a local. We need to take care of our small, home-grown businesses, especially in this part of the city. You won't regret your decision to eat here.

This is a nice local cafe. I had never been here before so decided to check it out. I ordered Mike's special plate which is thinly sliced steak with green peppers and onion with a side of refried beans. Amazing. Hubby ordered San Francisco burger and loved every bite. This would be a great place for breakfast. Prices are fair portions are huge. Great place We will be coming back for sure.
