Delicious food for both breakfast and lunch! We especially enjoyed the grilled cheese sandwich, omelette, and homemade soups. Our toddler daughter loved her pancakes, too! Highly recommend visiting the South of the Border Cafe whenever you're in Grand Marais.
I love this place!

The South of the Border Cafe is a small, homey-feeling cafe that offers great food in a quiet, welcoming atmosphere. The staff greets customers as soon as they enter, creating a comfortable, home-like experience. The potatoes with cheese and onions are a standout dish, and the cafe accepts cash or check only. The food is delicious, with some customers praising the pancakes as the best on the planet and enjoying fresh fish caught that morning. The atmosphere is friendly, and the service is excellent, even if a bit slow at times. The menu includes hearty breakfast options like omelettes with hash browns, and the portions are generous. Prices are affordable, especially considering the good quality of the food. The cafe is a charming small-town diner that many visitors find to be a delightful stop for breakfast or a quick bite, making it highly recommended for those exploring the area.
