My wife and I ate here while visiting Ridgecrest, and we were very impressed. The location is small, but don't let that fool you—the food is excellent. Everything we ordered was very good. One critical thing to know before you go: They are CASH ONLY. There is no ATM on-site, so you need to make sure you come prepared or you'll have to leave to find money. As for the meal, the portion sizes were perfect—not too much, just enough to leave satisfied without feeling overstuffed. We would definitely eat here again the next time we are in town. Highly recommended!

Always a must stop. I've been eating here for over twenty years. What a great diner and story the Midway is a piece of Ridgecrest history. The biscuits and gravy!!!

Had a lovely breakfast here. A really nice greasy spoon cafe. Id recommend the biscuits and gravy if they’re serving if. I’d be a regular here if I lived nearby.

Midway Cafe is a pretty average spot overall. It’s a decent place to grab a quick breakfast or lunch, and the menu has the usual diner-style options—eggs, pancakes, burgers, sandwiches. The food is okay, but nothing really stands out. It gets the job done if you’re hungry, but don’t expect anything too memorable.
Service is usually friendly, though sometimes a bit slow if it’s busy. The place has a small-town, casual vibe, which is nice, but the atmosphere can feel a little dated. It could use a refresh to feel more inviting.
Not a bad option if you’re nearby and need a simple meal, but it wouldn’t be my first choice if I had other options. Just a middle-of-the-road experience all around.

We had breakfast in this typical American cafe. It was included in the package for our stay at the motel next door. Perfect to start the day: bread with butter and jam, bacon, eggs, shredded potatoes, and the possibility of adding a drink (not included).

Wheelchair accessibility: Maybe the outside booth but it's to small a place to have a wheelchair inside.
