Callie’s Cafe

Came here hoping for a bit more than I got. The service was terrible, extremely slow and inattentive. The whole place seemed really dank and dingy. I ordered the Biscuit HI and when it finally arrived the portion was decent but I guess I was expecting more. The sausage was burnt on the outside and very dry. My friend got the pancakes which looked much better than what I got so maybe it was just my dish that was lackluster. On the bright side the orange juice was fantastic.

I dropped by this café a while back when I bought a groupon deal. I have to say, the place looked pretty outdated. There’s a little bar to the east which smelt of smoke and beer. No big deal though, I came for the food. Well, we ordered and the food came. The burger my husband bought was decent, it was a little soggy but he ate it. I ordered their fish burger and that it was surprisingly good. The fries that came with the burgers were decent. Nothing too special. And unfortunately not the hole in the wall I was looking for.

Our server was really nice very attentive and friendly. The food was good they have all day breakfast I didn’t order breakfast tho. I had a a tuna melt that is not listed on the menu it’s listed as daily special on a board when you walk in. The tuna melt was good. Maybe next time I’ll try the hash browns I’ve read they are delicious.

The portions are good but not much to them. The staff was not too attentive. I had to wait for water. It did not look too clean.

way better than I thought it would be. It’s hard to please the boyfriends appetite, and he’s a regular for life now. Way good. Hole in the wall feel, but busy diner feel.

5 stars for the Killer Hashbrowns. We have never ordered anything else and probably never will.
Eat Killer Hashbrowns and you will be addicted like us.

Party of 4 including 2 kids. Went in, seated ourselves on the west side of the dining area. My 4 year old loved looking at the décor. Orders were taken quickly. I had the Callie’s hash and I don’t remember what my husband had but it was basically loaded biscuits. Both were delicious. Our daughter had the cinnamon roll which was good and big. I’m looking forward to going again.

Surprisingly diverse menu for what you would guess. We had chicken enchiladas and chicken Parmesan tonight. Both were excellent. Special was Prime Rib which I have ordered before and found it excellent. They offer homemade soups and very tasty chili. Breakfast anytime is a must. Servings are generous and an outstanding value. But save room for the wonderful apple dumplings for desert. Very friendly service too.

Hard to find a place that does hash browns right… had the monster hash browns and I loved them… Will be going back for breakfast over and over for sure!

My kind of classic family place for breakfast. Nothing fancy just good people with good food at good prices. I had the smothered hash-​browns that had everything but the kitchen sink, and they were awesome!

Pretty good food for a great price. The pitchers mound is where it’s at. Easily feeds 2 if you get the whole mound. I think they could use a better gravy but the one they have is still good.

Went to the bar area walked in and sat for 15 min without any one of the 3 bartenders behind the counter acknowledge us, then saw a white board that said «when you see your bartender not paying attention to you just think of the last time you tipped in cash» literally turned around and walked out… Will never go back

If you’re looking for a good hangover breakfast in Orem, Callie’s is the spot. It’s about what you’d expect and seems to cater to the country-​western-​camoflauge-​shotgun crowd, but that’s fine by me so long as those portions and prices don’t go up any time soon.
Per the recommendation of a buddy, I ordered ‘Callies Killer Hashbrown’ and it’s pretty much exactly how it sounds. Hashbrowns loaded with sautéed onions, mushrooms, ham, bacon and sausage topped with cheese and gravy.
My boyfriend though, won at breakfast when he ordered the Special «Chili Cheese Omelette.» Not only was this a massive omelette it also had a favorable ration of chili to cheese to egg. There were in fact several globs of cheese and chili that I helped myself to over the course of our breakfasts.
If you’re looking for a grease bomb to sop up those bubble guts, or just get a beer with breakfast in the area, pop by Callies and get er’ done.

I am a bit surprised by the low reviews from other Unilocalers – my experience was a pure joy from start to finish. But to each their own. Came in on a Sunday morning before my buddy’s wedding party, so I was looking for a hearty meal to hold me over ’til dinnertime. Callie’s delivered. Ordered a Chili Cheese Omelette (it was one of the daily specials that day) w/​Hash Browns & a Biscuit as my toast option. It was awesome. All of it. The omelette had the right balance between eggs and chili/​cheese, the hash browns were perfectly crunchy, and the biscuit was killer. Yo their butter is awesome too! Creamy and salty. Oooeee. The rest of my group (three others) all ordered solid meals too, but I clearly won breakfast. Again.
On top of everything else, our server was a sweetheart. She was very outgoing and quick to answer questions and help out with anything. Plus the prices are on point. $ 6 for my meal. Ahh I miss the Utah prices!

The portions on their breakfast plates are massive! Very good tasting food, place is just like grandma’s old trailer park, so if you want tea and crumpets with your meal eat somewhere else

We walked in and it’s seat yourself. The theme inside was a pleasant western theme — the counter area is constructed from a nice wood, pictures of animals, cow girls and the Rockies litter the walls. For the most part the tables were clean but the restaurant wasn’t busy at all so I would honestly expect all the tables to be bust and ready to use. My wife ordered today’s special — a Tuna melt and I tried the club sandwich. The Tuna melt I would give 1 star. It looked and tasted just like a plain, cheap tuna sandwich. Also the cheese inside was cheap processed cheese. I would recommend never wasting your money on this since you could easily make something at home alot better at a better price. The club sandwich was actually pretty good. I’d give it 4 stars.
Things of note about their menu. They nickel and dime you. For example, if you want fry sauce with your fries, that’ll cost you 25 cents. You are only allowed 1 refill on your fountain drink. Anyone who’s been involved with purchasing the supplies for fountain drinks knows that they are really cheap. Even though I rarely have more than a single refill seeing them limit them is a little off putting.
The service was pretty good. However since we were some of the only people there I wonder what it would be like during busier hours. Especially since our waiter was also our cook.
Bottom line: Food is ok. Service was good. Kinda dirty.

Visited for breakfast today on the weight of some seriously misguided reviews here about Callie’s Café.
Their coffee was awful. It was Coffee Bean Tea, no more, no less. It had no body or charm of any kind to it! The Denver omelet i tried was only okay, but the hash browns were boiled potatoes, fried on the grill only on one side. Maybe they needed to bring some gravy out to go with the boiled potatoes drenched in grease below the fried topside. The initial presentation looked fine, just like how good advertising executives make a plate look before taking a beautiful picture of it to put in an ad, that is then placed in some print media or internet ad somewhere. It’s just that when you lift the top off, then truth is revealed.
I’ll give 1 star here as the waitress tried really hard to make it right for me, including brewing another pot of coffee. But on the whole, 1 star is gratuitous. The new pot was at least drinkable where she had used 2 of the pre-​measured packets of grounds to make it, but I’ll not pay what I had to at this restaurant for a cup of coffee again.

Walking in the place was a seat your self. So we walked around looking for a table which most were empty but all of them were dirty. We found a table by the door that was clean so we sat down.
I waited for the waitress to bring us a menu and made eye contact with the bus girl 5 times which she wasn’t doing anything so she could have brought us a menu. After about 2 minutes of no menus we had to get up and ask for menus.
Our waitress finally came and told us that she was the only one working which is fine if she is busy but her bus girl needs to help her a little more. The waitress was really friendly and helpful with our questions.
The food was really good. I had the chicken fingers which were awesome!
All and all I would go back there.

This place is an example of local color, where the food and experience is one of a kind. Karaōke singers are not very good here and the couple of times I went the local regulars were in full bloom. The waitresses also sing and they are not very good either.
There is a cover charge. You must order a meal in order not to be assessed $ 4.00 karaōke cover charge.
Old farts at this place. Definitely not young person’s place.
Diner food. But having grown up in New Jersey, where real diner food is available, from a Greek family, I can tell you this is not a real diner.
Cash only. But if you’re from back east, that is familiar for a place like this. No big deal.

I went there with certain expectations and got just that! I loved the diner type atmosphere and the waitress was so cool and down to earth. The killer hash browns are amazing! The pancakes are fluffy, moist and delicious! Great low price for the quality and quantity! I definitely recommend for breakfast over most other breakfast joints!
