Plainfield Family Restaurant

Don’t come here unless you want the most basic things on the menu. They NEVER have gyro meat, and the last time I couldn’t even get a simple croissant sandwich. Also, the waitresses here, at least in the evening, are super unprofessional and talk about too much gossip for the whole place to hear them.
Super disappointed because their breakfast crêpes with hollandaise are really good, but haven’t had a good experience since.

This unassuming little family-​friendly place is comfortably situated near absolutely nothing – not even an intersection! Yet it still seems to fill the parking lot on Saturday mornings, with its smartly prepared menu, a bit more creative than one might usually expect to see in a family restaurant. And some fairly healthy options too. The rye french toast with healthy dollops of yogurt is memorable. And the yogurt ain’t none of that gelatinous Yoplait stuff; it’s the real deal. Chances are, the apparently Middle Eastern family that runs this establishment knows yogurt well. But they also apparently know bacon, which is a little surprising for a conservative Muslim family! I guess they recognize you have to accommodate the culture. Bright, clean and friendly, this place isn’t going to move mountains but it can sure fill the bellies comfortably enough.
