Morning Star Cafe Reviews
Excellent breakfast! Highly recommend! Parker was a wonderful waiter. 🎉🎉🎉
The wait can be long, which is expected. Food is Good!, Once you get it. I have been there twice and waited 45mins for food after order was taken, 1hr the 2nd time. If you do go, allow 3 hours. (1hr wait, 45 mins for food, plus time to eat and get bill).
We were told it would be a 65 minute wait but it was over two hours. We checked the list for our name twice just to make sure we were still on the list. The third time we checked it they did not have our name on the list and still did not seat us. It took over two hours and 45 minutes to get our food. When I talked to the manager, she offered me a free cinnamon roll. We had to change our entire days plan because it took so long. We understand that there’s always a wait at MorningStar,...read full review

Morning Star Cafe is a popular restaurant known for its unique and delicious food. The cafe is a local favorite, with customers traveling over two hours just to dine there. The menu features a variety of options, such as perfectly poached eggs, a "naked" option, and a selection of meats like bacon and chorizo hash. The coffee is served in an insulated carafe, allowing for multiple refills. The service is generally efficient, although there may be occasional delays when the cafe is understaffed.
One standout dish is the Key Lime pancakes, made with a graham cracker dusting and topped with a tangy key lime curd and whipped cream. The pancakes have a great texture and are considered one of the best breakfast dishes. The restaurant offers something for everyone, including vegetarian, adventurous, and traditional options, making each visit a different and enjoyable experience. The atmosphere is welcoming, and staff are accommodating, even opening up extra seating when needed. Overall, Morning Star Cafe provides excellent value for its high-quality food and is a must-visit spot for breakfast or brunch. It has been a community staple for over 30 years and remains a local landmark of the Lakeshore.
