Lindas’ Cafe

Classic American family diner. Visiting from out of state I saw the reviews and took a shot (sick of the chains) glad I did! Just finished my second meal in as a many days here and leaving more then satisfied again. Check out the broasted chicken as I did and you won’t be disappointed. Oversized portions, friendly staff, clean restaurant. Definitely 5 stars.

Great café style place. Food was delicious, wait staff was friendly and prompt. I wish there were more places like this.

Good food, fresh and decent sized portions. Typically always busy. My only concern it is a little pricey for a diner. Servers are typically flying around busy, good team work.

There was 14 of us that enjoyed a meal before a wedding later that day, we were there at noon on Sat. Oct.3. There’s a great variety on the menu, breakfast all day, and the prices were fair.
The food was delicious, good portions, service was great and the food came quick.
With 14 of us we ordered a wide variety and all were pleased.
They also had tables all set up for us as I called about an hour ahead.
Nice friendly relaxing atmosphere.
Highly recommend this place.

Great locals place for breakfast or lunch. Be prepared to wait sometimes on weekends. Tasty food anytime & generous helpings.

Looking for an old fashioned diner? This place is always packed! And for good reason. The food is hearty and delicious. Love the breakfast skillet. Definitely get the cinnamon roll! Don’t expect great service. This is a diner! A wonderful gathering place. Expect to have long wait times on Sundays!

Been coming here for years. Best diner food around! Do yourself a favor and order waffles, pancakes, French toast or a burger. Yum!!!

Man VS Food, I am usually the champion. Linda has a pancake that took me down. The ultimate Peanut Butter Banana Pancake. It was excellent, but I could not finish it, even with four glasses of milk. Very fun to try. All of their breakfast food is great. Hasbrowns are cooked right, eggs are seasoned properly and the meats are not greasy.

In the past we’ve had their broasted chicken — delicious! (If you like broasted chicken.)
Today my husband had a BLT (liked it and would recommend if you like BLTs)
I had a monte cristo (and I love them) — but their’s was horrible. An off/​bad taste but I couldn’t describe it so I just ate what I could.
I also paid $ 1.99 extra for waffle fries and they were disgusting. My husband’s crinkle cut (regular) fries looked like another reviewer’s picture — golden just like they should! My waffle fries were dark brown (not burned) but very soggy.
If I was waitstaff and saw fries look like that, I wouldn’t serve them.
Wait person (she called the other wait person «mom») was wonderful. Very friendly and cheery. Other wait person served our meals but said nothing to us.

Love the food and atmosphere. You have to try the pancakes! I would have given 5 stars but once in a while the server we get can seem busy and moody. But that is rare.

Pretty good. Bigger portion sizes. Friendly staff. Clean with a nice atmosphere. I like supporting local rather than chain so we will go again.

They have amazing… and I mean amazing, pancakes. They are usually my go-​to when I eat here. They have a cheesy ham skillet that also deserves props. The service is come and go. Most of the time I have attentive service, but the last time I went I had to request sugar for my coffee 2 different times. This could be in part because of how busy it is. I would recommend eating here as long as you are not in a hurry to get in and out.

Horrible salty tasteless food. I got the Linda’s skillet. It has biscuits that were super dry, the hollandaise sauce tasted like pure salt and nothing like it should. The corned beef was like cat food. My husband got country fried steak and it was also not good, the gravy came from a packet or can. The only thing that was good was the English muffin and toast.
Out waitress was rude hardly said anything and then would talk loudly with the other waitress and cooks. Then got short with us when we ordered. Just over all disappointed.

Had the eggs benedict with a pancake. Food was delicious but the service was horrible! The waitress acted like it was an inconvenience to serve us and was nothing short of being completely rude! She was on the phone while giving us our menus and didn’t even say hi, was short with us while we ordered, didn’t ask how our food was and barked a response to our questions. It was my first time there and after that kind of service, I do not want to go back!

I live about a mile from Lindas’ Café, so I have been there often, and I have been disappointed every single time. I do not know why I keep going back. The food is not very good, and the service is ALWAYS terrible.
I brought my dad there this morning for breakfast since it is Veteran’s Day and he happens to be one. He asked for his hash browns to be prepared «extra crispy», to have lots of fried onions, and to have a piece of American cheese on top. How hard is it to get that right? Apparently, something was lost in translation along the way because his hash browns came out super soggy, with NO onions whatsoever. They were not even browned at all. I couldn’t believe it. I was angry because it took a lot of work for me to get my kids out the door that early to take their grandpa out for breakfast, and we wanted to treat him to something special. I could have EASILY made a much better breakfast at home, and then my dad would not have been disappointed.
My kids had to watch us eat for 10 minutes before their food came out. Why could we not eat together? When we go to a restaurant, we expect to eat at the same time. How hard is it to throw a couple of French toast sticks into the fryer at the same time you make the other two breakfasts?
As for my meal, I had a classic ranch skillet. There were three tiny pieces of green pepper on top. Nothing special.
Our server did not smile, was not pleasant in the least, and did not refill our drinks.
I will not be giving them another chance.

Love this place! Great food, people and good price. You get a good amount of food and I have never left hungry!

Great locally owned non-​chain restaurant. Food is always good, service is friendly but expect a wait for breakfast. It’s worth the wait — but plan accordingly. Not great for larger parties.

Linda’s Café Pros:
+Great classic breakfast food
+Amazing and fast service
+Classic up-​north diner feel
+Reasonable prices
+Takeout available
Linda’s Café Cons:
–It’s in a strip mall
–It can get busy

Had lunch here while passing through.
Awesome server!
Big clean restaurant with big clean bathroom.
The menu is typical diner style choices for breakfast with the addition of 6 or so different types of eggs Benedict. I had the garden omelet which was three eggs fried into a very thin crêpe, then filled with tiny diced onions, broccoli, green peppers and mushrooms. These veggies were also sprinkled on top with the cheese. You can choose between Swiss, provolone or American. I like a fluffier, thicker omelet, but that’s just me.
This place isn’t amazing, but you can feel good supporting a non-​chain restaurant.

I had high hopes for this place and ended up being overall disappointed in our trip for breakfast last weekend.
The place is in a strip mall and looks entirely typical from the outside. Upon entering we were greeted and seated without delay. We ordered drinks and perused the menu. Pretty standard American diner fare. Our server brought our drinks however, she forgot the honey my wife requested with her coffee.
My omelet wasn’t much; Lots of onions, a few green peppers, a dash of cheese, and a drizzle of chili. It was satisfying but entirely forgettable. Despite the omelet, the rye toast was quite good. My wife’s order (steak and eggs) looked much better and she confirmed they were pretty good. As for the coffee, that tasted like mud.
The portions were far from large (pretty mediocre, in fact) which I prefer, but sort of a let down based on other reviewers’ comments.
Our server was friendly but distant and somewhat inattentive. The prices were OK. I’m glad we tried it but I doubt we’d come back.
