This out-of-the-way gem is absolutely worth the drive! The food was high quality and so tasty. I had a sweet pepper, olive, and Asiago quiche, while my daughter tried the strawberry Swedish pancakes….both were superb. A small place, reservations are recommended, but the service was great so a slight wait is worth it.

Service was poor. We didn't have reservations, which I guess is an issue, but they had space and tables remained empty through our meal. We had to ask for menus, drink refills, weren't told about specials, etc. while the waitress fawned over the other customers. The burgers were tough, lacked seasoning and were served on bread instead of buns, though we don't think this was listed on the menu, and they are not cooked to order (all served medium well done). We won't be going back. Not worth the price. Nice atmosphere!

Absolutely Charming! ❤️ We saw the Amboy Cottage Cafe on a Minnesota TV show a few years ago. We finally took the time to drive here for breakfast. This is the best breakfast in Minnesota! The cozy atmosphere and breakfast is perfect! The everything omelette and fresh pastries are a must try! We will be back very soon.

Quaint, cozy atmosphere. Delicious food and friendly service. Pizzas served Saturday evening from 5 - 8. They also had live music on Saturday evening when I was here. Small Cafe - you might want to call for reservations if it's Saturday evening. Beautiful flowers all over. Very nice.

You never know what you are going to get in a small town in Minnesota, so we were pleasantly surprised by this gem of a restaurant! The quiche was amazing, the salad fresh and tasty as were the homemade breads. We didn’t have reservations (and were supposed to) but got lucky. Will definitely come back!

Wonderful place to have lunch! Excellent service. Great choices for sandwiches, salads and dessert and all homemade and fresh. Reservation is a must.
