This place has been one of my go-tos for years. The outdoor seating and special events back room are quiet. The food is really good (my fave is the buttermilk chicken salad) they have a range of craft beer and cocktails. The bucket of fries are the best I've ever had with their aioli. All the stars.
The food was scrummy! Mildred and New Deal are conjoint twin restaurants. This one tries for a hip yuppy vibe but could be cleaner - Mildred is table cloth, napkins and seniors. If seniors with oxygen tubes eat there, I will trust the safety of their food. A couple of different vegetarian options at New Deal but not so much at Mildred. The waitress also told us later that they could make many Of Mildred 's vegetarian. The pumpkin cheesecake was amazing, better than cheesecake...
My teenage daughter and I went to New Deal on a "daddy date" for lunch. It was Friday and the place was hoppin' (the staff seemed a little stressed out). We thankfully got a seat pretty soon and the food was very good. She got the grilled pimento cheese and I got the buttermilk chicken salad, which was cooked well and pretty generous on the chicken.\n\nI wouldn't call New Deal Cafe fantastic but it's definitely a good option. We'll be back!
