15 Best Cafes near Lake Lotawana

“We dined in while between soccer games at Legacy at the recommendation of a friend. THIS PLACE IS A VIBE!! The sun porch and interior are chic, yet comfortable. The food was delicious, including bagels that are certainly homemade. The drink menu is is fantastic and has a great, interesting variety. Clearly a curated, thought out menu. All of us - 2 adults, 2 late teens and 2 elementary aged kiddos - found something we thoroughly enjoyed. The icing on top was an absolutely LOVELY and incredibly kind, talented violinist. Having an unexpected moment to sit, relax, have a beverage and listen to great music was something we had no idea we needed this morning. We most certainly will be back!“

“Excellent food and wonderful dining experience. 100% recommend. can't wait to go back.“

“Always spot on! Best fresh, crispy hash-browns and country fried steak. Consistent great food and service! Been going for 25+ years. The complimentary cinnamon roll is old school cafeteria style that you can order to go by the dozen. There’s a reason this place remains the staple in downtown LS! Enjoy!“

“Love Scout Coffee! Both locations! Great coffee, awesome baristas and a good atmosphere to work or hang out with friends. Definitely recommend!“

“love the selection at this place...enough to make the hour and 45 minute drive from holton ks...trav the tree guy is awesome...patient, answers questions, very helpful. my only gripe about this place is I wish there was an option to see what inventory of trees and shrubs you guys have. I know it's always changing and there's no way to list everything, but mention that, so if someone is looking for something specific they know to call if its not listed. for example, I don't know what trees you guys offer, if your having sales, prices, etc. I was just up there to grab a southwestern white pine that I would of had to order online to get for much more then what colonial gardens charged (thank God I somehow found out colonial gardens had them...saved me money and I got a bigger tree) anyway, while I was there buying the pine tree, I saw a bunch of trees you had, some of which where on sale...moral to the story, I just bought a bunch of trees that were half the size for double the price. if I would of known that, I would of brought the trailer and bought the trees from you. I guess from now on I will just email everytime I'm wanting to purchase a tree, it would just be easier on your staff to not have to constantly answer emails about your inventory, and it would help people like me who are willing to make the drive for a bigger tree for half the price. anyway, that's my only gripe about the place, again, great selection of trees and shrubs...so much so...it's definitely worth the drive to see if they have what your looking for!“

“You can't go to Sam's Club without stopping by the cafe for a tastey, super affordable snack. It's the only reason my kids ever tag along. The service is friendly and fast. The prices stay low. So it's a win for me and the kids.

Kid-friendliness: My kids are always eating here along with many other children with other families.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible tables are available here.“

The bathrooms were spotless and even the parking lot was clean! No overflowing trash or dishes which I really appreciated. I will be coming here from here on out if I want Panera! Thank you!!“
