Great breakfast! Over easy eggs cooked perfectly. Corned beef hash was good, too. Sausage had good flavor. The biscuits and gravy not so much. Biscuits were doughy, and the gravy was bland. Service was very good. Bring cash, no credit cards.

Nice people and a solid standard breakfast. Nothing fancy, just good. The French toast is legendary, though. Make sure to bring cash.

the definition of an american diner. simple menu, attentive and friendly staff, cash only. places like this used to be everywhere, but now seem like a dime in a dozen. sam's cafe is a place to be treasured, and is a staple in the Champaign restaurant scene.

Cash-only diners are the best. Amazing and friendly atmosphere with affordable breakfast. The people that work there are always hustling and clearly work hard to keep the place running smooth. From top to bottom, with local businesses being promoted on the ceiling, to all the friendly faces, this is truly a hub of community for Champaign :) love to see it.

One of the better diner spots in town. I always love places where you can see them cook your food. The man working the griddle did a stellar job making my omelette. Delicious and satisfying.
