OK, so I still like this place for breakfast and the service is great and the old school ambiance I love BUT, I would not recommend this place for lunch or dinner. The Roast Beef dinner was instant mashed with frozen corn and overcooked beef that was sliced with the grain instead of against the grain of the meat (basics of cooking people), making it very tough and topped with generic brown gravy. The salad was "shredded" lettuce that had brown edges which indicated they used a metal knife (only use a plastic/ceramic knife or tear your lettuce, these are basics in cooking) and the lettuce was cut the previous day, you could taste the un-freshness. The Ham and cheese sandwich was a single slice of ham (maybe 2 oz) and single slice of cheese on bread, not anywhere near acceptable considering the price. Subway was a block away so I stopped in to get a ham and cheese for my buddy because I knew that he would not be happy with their version. I should have grabbed new lunch for everyone. He wouldn't even eat it, he gave it to a homeless guy and ate the Subway. Overall, I would say, STICK TO BREAKFAST at this place because the rest was 0 out of 5 stars. The lack of basic cooking skills is missed or ignored here, either way, it makes for bad food which most went into the trash. SORRY Badger Cafe crew, but that was a terrible meal full of basic cooking mistakes.

This is a little cafe in a strip mall that puts out some good food. The prices are fantastic especially for Las Vegas. We will definitely be back!!

Four stars? I don't think so, but still very good! Came early morning for a quick breakfast before leaving town. Came here mainly for the four stars it's rated as. A real greasy spoon type of place which I love but others may not. The area is sketchy at best. The manager was good guy who takes your order and cooks your food at the same time. Did he wash his hands. Hmm, not sure. Overall, the prices were great! You get a lot of food and it is very good. The value is outstanding! I am from Wisconsin, but probably won't make a return visit. Not what I anticipated.

Great food. Connected to the Rum Runner bar so kind of a bar atmosphere mixed with old school diner. Not fancy decor but good food at a great price and quick friendly service!

All the reviews good and bad on here are correct .. got full and was with the price. I probably wouldn't go again.

We recently found this little gem. Nothing fancy just a good place to get a solid meal at a reasonable price.

We visited for breakfast/lunch. Four in our party, server was great - friendly, efficient, lots of refills on the coffee. The food was good, well priced and servings were of a good size. Feel like this might be a “where the locals eat” kind of place in Vegas!
