We had breakfast on a week day and it was wonderful very good food and service. They said come back for the Sunday breakfast buffet. We did and it was awful, I've had better food at a cheap hotel free breakfast and not good service it was high school girls that you had to call over to ask for coffee. I was tempted to get it myself.

Ok Cafe on the prairie. The only reason we stopped in was because of the Nellie's sign. We were looking for the small town hospitality. But again it was OK. Just a heads up, this is a cash only cafe. You have to get cash across the street at the convenience stations ATM.Very disappointed they changed the name to Dorothy's. Which has nothing to do with Laura Ingalls wilder. Maybe they are wanting something different? Not sure, but the Nellie's sign is still up. None of us "10 people" had any complaints about the food. No one came out to offer refills or to see how everything was.

It's a burger joint. I thought it would be some country cooking stuff. Nope!

June 16, 2023. I stopped at “Nellie’s” for lunch while I was on a Laura Ingalls Wilder Road trip. I had never been to Walnut Grove and was excited to see places I had read about as a child. So, having lunch at “Nellie’s Cafe" was a bonus. I was very disappointed when I looked at the menu and it said Dorthy’s on it. I thought about getting up and leaving. But I was the only customer. So, I stayed... I suggest the owner changes the name back to “Nellie’s”. If I had known “Nellie’s” was actually called Dorthy's. I would have had my lunch somewhere else.

Little cafe with very nice people and a Sunday all you can eat buffet breakfast. Branded as “Nellie’s” however it is actually Dorthy’s. Part if the areas Laura Ingalls Wilder vibe.
All was excellent..hostess, waitress, food..very friendly place to go and enjoy good company

If you love a quiet room with Little house on the prairie chatter than this is the place for you. I got a bacon cheese burger, and it tasted like Mom made it...A must go if you're in Walnut Grove, MN.

A real Gem. I drove from Marshall to have a good breakfast and was thoroughly pleased with Nellie's. The food was excellent and the owners were so friendly and welcoming. Do yourself a favor and have a good home cooked meal served with a bright smile.
