Had the huevos rancheros and it was fantastic! Great flavor, generous portion, and our waiter was friendly and helpful! Highly recommend The Cafe if you’re in Louisville.

I took my mom to brunch at her favorite spot, and it definitely lived up to expectations. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the best part was the service. Ms. Loretta was incredibly welcoming, making us feel right at home and truly brightening our day. We will definitely keep coming back!

We had a group of 26 today (reservations recommended) and the service and food were delicious. Jared handled the group with no problem. We had a great time and hope to return again next time in Louisville!

I'm really digging all the upgrades they're doing! The food is amazing as always. If you've never tried the Tomato dill soup or the fiesta bean salad, you need to! Simply amazing! The cakes are all homemade and they look so delicious. Also, They now have a band that plays in the main dining room from time to time. They were great!

I came with a small group of sisterfriends for lunch. The menu offers a good variety of dishes to choose from. I chose breakfast and had the Howardstown Omelet, with a side of creamy grits with cheese. Both were delicious! The atmosphere is warm and hospitable. Our server, Cynthia was so very nice and took good care of us! We had a wonderful experience of food and fellowship! I do plan to return and tell others about the Cafe!

Great spot to meet friends and share a nice meal in a very cool establishment. Cute, artsy neighborhood with shops and a bakery just outside the restaurant. I ordered their roasted chicken pasta salad and it was such a large portion that I took half of it home for later. Would love to go again and try some of their other menu items.

I would definitely recommend The Cafe! Our service was good, and the atmosphere was alright, but the food was a 10/10! I got the roasted chicken and my mom got the kale salad with shrimp. Both were amazing. Overall I would highly recommend the food at The Cafe.

Had brunch today with my friend and was pleasantly surprised. The food was amazing. There was a jazz ensemble playing…and the atmosphere was so relaxing! Our server was so kind. The food was delicious. I’m looking forward to coming back again!!
