Tried this place for lunch yesterday since we were in the Germantown Hills area. Seated immediately. Then waited for 7 minutes before one of the waitresses came by and said our waitress was checking people out at the cash register. She then went into a lengthy explanation of why she could not take our order--"she and the other waitress alternate customers rather than have assigned areas because they think that is more fair!" Finally, after a longer wait, she came over and took our order and put Val (the other waitress's name on the ticket) but evidently did not tell Val. We both ordered Larry's Special (pancakes with cheesecake filing and blueberries and bacon). The cook set plain pancakes in the window where they proceeded to set for another 4 minutes. I finally said loudly "I believe that is our order!" Val, who had not washed her hands after handling money, credit cards, and tickets for several individuals at the cash register, went back and took the pancakes down. She then proceeded to lift the pancakes with her hands and put cheesecake filing between them, and added the blueberries, etc. She had taken payment, made a pot of coffee, etc. without washing her hands! Then handled our food! Why wasn't the filing and blueberries added in the kitchen by the cook? Needless, to say, the food was stone cold when delivered to our table--even the bacon. The pancakes were so bland they were inedible! Even though they were not busy, no one stopped by the table to see if we needed anything else. I had to ask the man who was busing tables for syrup.

We have a very picky eater. A few months ago she wanted to go out to eat and get French toast. With an internet search, I found the Buttermilk Cafe. Because she is usually a slow eater, I put her order in before the rest of us had made up our minds. She enjoyed her food so much, that she finished ALL of her food as we were getting ours. She's always asking to go back. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is that a couple of weeks ago the baby had fallen asleep without eating breakfast. I wanted to have food in the car when he woke up. They wouldn't bring food to the car. :(

Hands down the best breakfast in the Central Illinois area and the service matches it. Sometimes there is a wait, but it’s because it’s that GOOD!! Worth the wait! I sometimes get carry out and it’s not a lot more than a gross, fast food meal. Treat yourself and your family to a delicious breakfast!

Delicious food. Glad we chose to try somewhere new and it did not disappoint. The omelettes are 10/10. So thick and fluffy and full of flavor. Can't wait to try more from their menu

Meat lover omelet is one of the best I've ever had, and the little square potatoes were perfectly cooked. I am a very picky eater but have had food about 4 times from here now and it was all amazing. If you haven't been to this Cafe you need to try it.

Food was ok but service was good. The location was small but it's perfect for a small town. We ordered a bunch of food and nothing really stood out, they were just the typical breakfast food.

The waitress was nice and quick, but the food was barely edible. The sausage looked microwaved, pancake was white and hardly looked cooked, hashbrown had no brown on them. Small place and people are packed like sardines crawling all over each other.
