Went here a month ago and the service and food was okay. Because many of the places down Dearborn street were busy we stopped again at the OTC for lunch at the end of the street. There wasn't anyone there because there was a "seat yourself sign". No waitresses and you had to order your own food with an extremely limited menu (4 items- pulled pork, chicken salad, tuna salad and pizza that wasn't handmade). We got pulled pork with chips. We picked it up from the counter. It was cold with no taste. It was served with a 10 cent bag of chips. The lemonade had a strange taste to it. When walking out I inquired with the owners. There said something about finding help...no one wants to work ? So with that said looks like we will pass next time unless there are new owners. I think the owners were put off by my inquiring about the service & menu. Not good at all. This is a real change from the 1st time we ate there. Hope i don't get sick.

The cafe is In the scenic view of Dearborn St, a beautiful oak tree gives an unique canopy to the visitors, away from the crowds you can enjoy a delicious typical American breakfast, the delicious coffee and my Benedict eggs plate generous and tasty, the waitress courteous and "get to the point" style, I enjoyed my experience!

Has a front patio but are not pet friendly. Go next door to Joe Max Coffee Company who welcome pets.

When I was a kid my dad would love to have Sunday breakfast in the backyard in the summer. The breeze, the pancakes and sausages and relaxing time with family made this time a great memory for me. The Ole Time Cafe brings those memories back Come and relax and feel the love.

Wandered in one morning when looking for a new place for breakfast. It was about 8:30 am and there was no one else there...not a good sign. The building is nothing to get excited about, but they do have a big deck shaded by a big tree. Kinda old Florida style. We were glad we stayed. The food was very good and the staff was very friendly. More customers wandered in while we were there. We enjoyed our time there and will return.

The food was pretty decent. I had French toast which was basically sweet egg bread. The service was pretty bad the waitress was rude and put her fingers all over the glasses by the mouth area. This place used to be a lot better. Must be new owners!

Awful. We ordered eggs Benedict and the eggs were hard. I'm not sure what they did to the potatoes but my stomach hurt after dining. You cannot bring pets anymore since the restaurant changed hands several years ago and that diminished it's Florida charm. We eill not be going back.

Great place for breakfast. Old Florida charm. Good service, reasonable price. Stopped by for a cold beer after the art show. Nice people, great burgers and sandwiches.

Went there for breakfast, great food, reasonable price and great service. Has an old Florida family feel to it. Also stopped by for a cold beer and great hamburger after going to an art show on Dearborn St. New ownership very friendly. Highly recommended.
Love this outdoor casual beer and great sandwich place. Food great - staff happy - not burned out by tourists! Super friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere can't be beat!

Found this place with Yelp. Under new ownership. Prompt and pleasant service. Tasty hearty breakfast. Quiche was fluffy like a soufflé. Coffee cups never empty. Party of four. All happy. Prices reasonable.
